dc.description.abstractTo enhance the sliding tribological performance between PTFE and 40#steel (AISI 1040) under full film lubrication conditions, laser surface texturing (LST) technology was employed to prepare micro-dimples on the contact surfaces of 40# steel discs. The Box–Behnken design response surface methodology (BBD-RSM) was applied to optimize the micro-dimple parameters. Coefficients of friction (COFs), wear losses and worn contact surfaces of the PTFE–40# steel tribo-pairs were researched through repeated wear tests, as lubricated with sufficient anti-wear hydraulic oil. The influencing mechanism of micro-dimples on the tribological behavior of tribo-pairs was also discussed. The results proved that micro-dimples can significantly improve the tribological properties of PTFE–40#steel tribo-pairs. The deviation between the final obtained average COF and the prediction by the BBD-RSM regression model was only 0.0023. Following optimization, the average COF of the PTFE–40# steel tribo-pair was reduced by 39.34% compared to the smooth reference. The wear losses of the PTFE ring and 40# steel disc decreased by 91.8% and 30.3%, respectively. This study would offer a valuable reference for the optimal design of key seals used in hydraulic cylinders.
