- The friction coefficient of Ni3Si alloys showed a declining trend with the increase of temperature. However, the reverse trend was observed between the alloys with Ti addition, and this was due to the different contents of Ti.
- The wear rates of the alloys had a little change in the temperature range of 25–400 °C, but the wear rates increased sharply at 600 °C. There were two reasons for this: First, the yield strength reached a maximum at 400 °C, and then decreased with the increase of temperature; second, the severe oxidation occurred at 600 °C. The Ni3Si alloy with 5% Ti addition showed the best wear resistance at high temperatures as compared to pure Ni3Si alloy and with 10% Ti addition. The wear rates of the tested alloys were in the magnitude of 10−5 mm3/m.
- The wear mechanism of pure Ni3Si alloy was abrasive wear at low temperature, and oxidation wear at high temperature. When the addition of Ti content increased, the wear mechanisms of the alloys changed from abrasive wear to fatigue wear at low temperature, and oxidation wear and fatigue wear at high temperature.
