Introduction of rare-earth element Sc in alloy design to modify wear
Tailoring the alloy composition, which induces the hard secondary phase to increase hardness and strength to improve the wear features, is a feasible approach for developing wear-resistant metal materials. Here, a group of (AlCoCrFeNi)100–xScx (x = 0–2.0, at%) high-entropy alloys (HEAs) are designed and the phase compositions and wear …

Tribological Properties of Dodecaborides of Rare-Earth Metals
Abstract— This article investigates the main tribotechnical properties of high borides of rare-earth metals with a UB12-type structure. The experiments have demonstrated that ZrB12, DyB12, and TmB12 dodecaborides during friction are characterized by a rather low weight wear of 10–3 mg/m, coefficient of friction f = 0.2–0.5 and are highly wear-resistant materials, …
