Abstract.

Abrasion is the main reason for the destruction of the working surfaces of machines that work in different sectors of industry. This study presents the abrasion test results for materials that are used to make parts for protective coatings: a rubber for linings manufactured by Valsa-GTV LLC and thermoplastic polyurethane with the trade name Desmopan. During the tests, the friction force and abrasive wear of the samples were measured. Worn surfaces and wear particles were examined using an optical microscope. On worn surfaces of test specimens. scratches were observed (parallel to the sliding direction), and ridges (perpendicular to the sliding direction).

 The study of wear particles shows that they (especially for Desmopan) in a dry slip state during friction on the abrasive sandpaper P150 were aggregated into skating particles. During friction on the abrasive sandpaper P40, aggregation of wear particles was absent. The results show that the coefficient of friction of rubber decreases with increasing size of the abrasive. For Desmopan, the coefficient does not depend so much on the size of the abrasive. Also, in all samples, the weight of the erased material decreases with an increase in the abrasive value. Abrasion of thermoplastic polyurethane under the trade name “Desmopan” in the abrasion test in all experiments is more than in lining rubber.

Full-scale experimental studies were carried out at the Poltava GOK at the mill МШР 4,5´6,0 ІІІ grinding stages (size of ore pieces +2 mm); 10 mm thick Desmopan plates were glued on the face lifters. Longevity to failure was approximately 1,500 hours.

It is shown that the Desmopan thermoplastic polyurethane can be successfully used as a protective coating for parts that work in a medium of small abrasive and do not perceive impact loading. The use of polyurethane as a material for lining drums of ball mills and trays of vibratory feeders has shown the low operational reliability.
