Thermal Correlation Assessment of the Resource of Interfaces with Solid Lubricating Coatings Based On Mos2 Applied by Magnetron and Other Methods, for Vacuum Conditions

The analysis of tribotechnical parameters of interfaces with solid lubricating coatings based on MoS₂, applied by different methods, was carried out according to the results of tests in vacuum. The surface friction temperature is calculated on the basis of the performed assessment of the load-speed characteristics of these interfaces. Based on the results of tribovacuum tests, the thermocorrelation dependence of the resource of a friction pair with solid lubricating coatings MoS2, applied by vacuum (magnetron and high-frequency) and suspension methods, on the surface friction temperature of the interface was determined. On the basis of this dependence, a method for calculating the resource of the studied tribointerfaces is proposed.
