As a result, it is possible to determine whether the surface undergoes self-organization during friction. Coatings were produced by hardfacing a subeutectic alloy Fe-Mn-C-B modified by silicon, nickel, chromium and copper. Tribological tests were performed using a pin-on-disc tribometer. The pin (coating) and the disc made of steel C45 were subjected to heat treatment (hardening and tempering). The tests were carried out under loads of 3 MPa, 7 MPa and 10 MPa at a constant sliding velocity of 0.4 m\/s and a sliding distance of 5700 m using a surface-active lubricant (glycerine oil). Obtained results were compared with the published results of previous tests carried out under the same conditions but under a load of 20 MPa. Obtained microscopic and spectroscopic results demonstrate that that the friction pair materials (the coating made of subeutectic alloy Fe-Mn-C-B modified by Si, Ni, Cr, Cu and C45 steel) and the surface-active lubricant cause self-organization during friction. The friction surface of the coatings has a flay-laminar structure and is covered with triboreaction products. The surface shows the presence of wear-resistant compounds such as oxides, carbides, borides and nitrides.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma13133025","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,6]],"date-time":"2020-07-06T11:07:42Z","timestamp":1594033662000},"page":"3025","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Study on the Self-Organization of an Fe-Mn-C-B Coating during Friction with Surface-Active Lubricant"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9061-4414","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marcin","family":"Barszcz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Faculty, Lublin University of Technology, 36B Nadbystrzycka Street, 20-618 Lublin, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9317-6141","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mykhaylo","family":"Pashechko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Fundamental of Technology, Fundamentals of Technology Faculty, Lublin University of Technology, 38 Nadbystrzycka Street, 20-618 Lublin, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4909-9980","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Krzysztof","family":"Dziedzic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Faculty, Lublin University of Technology, 36B Nadbystrzycka Street, 20-618 Lublin, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8845-0764","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jerzy","family":"Jozwik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Production Engineering, Mechanical Engineering Faculty, Lublin University of Technology, 36 Nadbystrzycka Street, 20-618 Lublin, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"170","article-title":"Evaluation of tribological properties and condition of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy surface","volume":"25","year":"2018","journal-title":"Teh.
