The objective of searching the optimum applied load was to minimize friction and decrease wear in mechanical moving components. The friction and wear behaviors of TiAl-10wt.%V2O5 nanowires (TiAl-10wt.%V2O5) were evaluated sliding against the fixed Al2O3 balls with the Vickers hardness of 18.07 GPa at the applied loads of 6-24 N. The testing results showed that the smaller friction coefficient and wear rate of TiAl-10wt.%V2O5 were obtained at 18 N, if compared to those at 6, 12 and 24 N. The smaller friction coefficient and wear rate were mainly attributed to the forming of cambiform structure of large crystalline grain, the higher totals of oxide interionic potential and the higher thickness of friction layer at 18 N, if compared to those at the other applied loads. It was obvious that the applied load of 18 N was reasonable for obtaining the lower sliding friction coefficient and the less wear rate of TiAl-10wt.%V2O5.
