Sun Shuangchen, a first-year master's student in the group, published a paper as the first author in the Zone 1 TOP journal of CAS under the guidance of Mr Lu Hailin. This thesis is aimed at improving the wear-resistant performance of mechanical parts and proposes a method of passivation by energisation and then micro-arc oxidation of low carbon steel. The tribological study of the final samples was also carried out. In the article, the wear of different samples is compared and the friction mechanism is explained in detail. It provides a new idea to improve the wear resistance of mild steel.
