Abstract

The effect of iron content on the strength and tribological characteristics of sintered tin-iron bronzes has been studied. It has been shown that the porosity has been reduced and the hardness monotonically increased with an increase in the iron content of the material. The strength dependence of the iron content is nonmonotonic, and the maximum strength increase took place at the iron content of 5%. The minimum coefficient of friction, the temperature in the friction zone and wear rate have been observed at iron content of 5–10%. In this case, the micropores and microlacunes have been formed on the friction surfaces that provide better lubricate conditions for the friction surfaces.
