The tribological behavior of self-mated Ti₃SiC₂ in bath of alcohols are investigated at sliding velocity ranging from 0.005 to 0.3 m/s. The results show that the friction coefficient and wear rates of self-mated Ti₃SiC₂ are reduced greatly under lubrication of alcohols compared to that under dry condition. In alcohols, smooth worn surfaces of Ti₃SiC₂ can be obtained. The mechanical wear is inhibited and the oxidized Ti and Si species on the worn surface are TiO₂ and silica gel. The friction coefficients decrease with carbon numbers and sliding velocity in the n-alcohols. The friction coefficient decrease with sliding velocity in glycol and glycerol as well. The decrease is determined by the increase of the viscosity of alcohols. In glycerol, at 0.1 m/s and 5 N, the friction coefficient of self-mated Ti₃SiC₂ is 0.08 which is the lowest in this paper. The lubrication regimes are calculated according to classical lubrication theory. At velocity from 0.005 to 0.3 m/s, in all of the alcohols except glycerol, the λ are below 1 which indicates that the lubrication regime is BL. While in glycerol, the lubrication regimes vary from BL to BL and EHL, then to EHL as the velocity increases.
