terials tested, despite differences in their chemical composition, mechanical properties and micro-
structure. On the other hand, their performance was ruled by their chemical composition, in particular
the Chromium content, under abrasion-corrosion conditions. This indicated the predominant role played
by corrosion in abrasive-corrosive environments in this particular tribo-system. For all materials tested,
micro abrasion wear coefcients were higher (4 ) than those measured under abrasion-corrosion
conditions. Friction coefcients could also be measured by a 3D load cell strategically positioned in the
specially developed micro abrasion-corrosion device, showing a strong reduction (2 ) in friction
coefcient under abrasion-corrosion conditions when compared with solely abrasion conditions. This
was attributed to the formation of a corrosion product, mainly constituted of iron sulphate (identied via
FTIR), which has lubricant properties.
