Abstract:
      The Ni-ZrO2nano-composite electroformings were prepared by composite electroforming. The surface morphology and microstructure were analyzed by SEM and TEM. Under dry friction conditions, the effect of nano-particle content in solution on the wear resistance of the nano-composite electroformings was studied. Furthermore, the surface morphology of worn surface and abrasion mechanism were investigated. The study results show that owing to the existence of nano-ZrO2particles in the composite electroformings, the grain size of the metallic matrixis decreased greatly, and the nano-composite electroformings has a flat surface and compact microstructure. The nano-composite electroformings are composed by Ni single crystal and polycrystal, nano-ZrO2particles. Because of the strengthening effect of nano-particle, nano-composite electroformings exhibit an excellent wear resistance, and changes in their abrasion mechanism take place. The wear resistance of nano-composite electroformings depends on nano-particle content in them.
