Quantitative research on the contribution of chemical reactions to wear is not enough. As a measure to obtain quantitativeness, there is a research example focusing on the formation of ammonia in the wear of nitrides in water. In this report, we introduced an example in which the chemical wear rate was calculated from the amount of ammonia produced and the contribution of chemical reaction to wear was studied. In addition, we introduced an example of the study based on the chemical wear state diagram, which divides wear into regions based on the chemical wear rate, and explained the regions of wear form a chemical view point.
