Abstract |
: |
The objective of this research is to investigate the abrasive
wear behaviour of polymer base automotive paint, which is locally used
for steel painting. Research has been conducted under dry, water
lubricated, and water-soap lubricated conditions. The effects of applied
load, sliding distance, abrader surface roughness, and paint drying time on
the abrasive wear volume and abrasive wear rate were investigated under
controlled environment of 23°C temperature and 40% humidity. The
examined paint was used directly on steel substrate with no primer.
Preliminary results show that wear volume increases with increasing
applied load, sliding distance and abrader roughness. However, results
also show decreasing wear volume with increasing drying time up to 50
hr. Beyond this value, time seems to have little effects on abrasive wear
behaviour. This argument is valid for all four conditions of tests. As for
abrasive wear rate, results show decreasing abrasive wear rate with
applied load sliding distance, abrader surface roughness, and drying time.
Results clearly indicate that the presence of water significantly increases
the wear volume and wear rate. Furthermore, the addition of soap to water
increases the wear volume and rate to even higher levels. |
