MoS 2 + Graphite composite coatings were synthesized onto 2024 aluminum alloy substrates by sputtering. The friction and wear test were performed at different environment pressures in vacuum using a ball‐on‐disk tribometer. The worn surface of the coating was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the friction coefficients and wear rate are increasing with increased environment pressure. A second surface layer was formed on the worn surface, that is harder than the original surface. The hardness of this second surface layer is decreased with increasing environment pressure.
