The main purpose of this paper is to present two TEM diffraction patterns taken from a layer (more than 100 μm thick) of piled-up adhered wear debris on a rubbed surface. The unidirectional rubbing was made in a low vacuum, regularly separating the slider from the specimen. The specimen and the slider were α-iron. One of the diffraction patterns consists of large spots and halo rings and the other consists of small faint spots and halo rings. The latter seems to be the state just before the perfect amorphization. All the spots in the diffraction patterns correspond to the structure formed due to the occupancy of iron atoms in O and T sites of ε-iron. Neither this way of amorphization nor the occupied structure mentioned above has not been reported. Both the amorphous state and the occupied structure remain at ambient conditions. The mechanism of high-pressure generation that transformed α-iron to ε-iron and the generation of high tensile stress that breaks the atomic bonds in wear debris are presented. The latter is considered to have enabled the occupancy.
