This work presents the improvement of hardfacing welding for American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) A572-based high-strength, low-alloy steel by controlling the heating/cooling conditions of welding process. In the welding process, the buffer and hardfacing layers were welded onto A572-based material by a nickel–chromium electrode and chromium carbide electrode, respectively. The base metal and electrode materials were controlled by the heating/cooling process during the welding to reduce excessive stress, which could result in a crack in the specimens. The welded specimens were examined by visual and penetrant inspections for evaluating the welding quality. The macro–micro structure of the deposited layer was investigated; scanning electron microscope with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM-EDS) and XRD were used to characterize structural properties, elemental compositions, and crystallite sizes of the welded specimens. The surface properties, such as hardness, impact, and abrasive wear of the welded specimens, were tested for evaluation of the wear resistance of the welded specimens.

The effect of microstructure and mechanical properties on abrasion resistance of the medium-carbon low-alloy steel has been investigated under two body abrasive wear conditions. The results show that the microstructure of the test steel is mastenite and bainite/mastenite when the specimen subjected to water quenching and blow cooling respectively. The hardness of the test steel was over 52HRC when the specimen subjected to water quenching and blow cooling, however, effect of tempering temperature on hardness is slightly. The strength of the test steel is increased with the tempering temperature increased and the impact toughness change slightly under the blow cooling condition. The tensile strength of the test steel is decreased and the yield strength is increased with the tempering temperature increased when the specimen subjected to water quenching and followed tempering. The wear rate is increased with load and the wear mechanism is micro-cutting and microploughing. The wear resistance of bainite/martensite is better than single-phase martensite. The hardness and impact toughness are important factor under two body abrasive wear condition.

Refined microstructures achieved by cyclic heat treatment significantly contribute to improving the wear resistance of steels. To acquire the refined microstructures of 65Mn low-alloy steel, first, the specimens were solid solution-treated; then, they were subjected to cyclic heat treatment at cyclic quenching temperatures of 790–870 °C and quenching times of 1–4 with a fixed holding time of 5 min. The mechanical properties of 65Mn low-alloy steel in terms of hardness, tensile strength, elongation and wear resistance were characterized. Afterwards, the effect of cyclic heat treatment on microstructure evolution and the relationships between grain refinement and mechanical properties’ improvement were discussed. The results show that the average grain size firstly decreased and then increased with the increase in the quenching temperature. Hardness increased with grain refinement when the temperature was lower than 830 °C. Once the temperature exceeded 830 °C, hardness increased with the temperature increase owing to the enrichment of carbon content in the martensite. With the increase in cyclic quenching times, hardness continuously increased with grain refinement strengthening. In addition, both tensile strength and elongation could be significantly improved through grain refinement. The relationships among wear loss, hardness and average grain size showed that wear resistance was affected by the synthesis reaction of grain refinement and hardness. Higher hardness and refined grain size contributed to improving the wear resistance of 65Mn low-alloy steel.

The erosion–corrosion (E–C) wear behaviors of electroless nickel phosphorus (Ni-P) coating, carburizing and untreated low alloy steel AISI 5117 in water–sand slurry and saline–sand slurry were investigated using whirling-arm tester. The E–C wear mass loss was measured to evaluate the effect of mediums and surface modifications. The microstructure of carburizing and Ni-P coating was analyzed using an optical and scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. Results showed that Ni-P coating and carburizing are effective in increasing wear resistance of low alloy steel. However, the Ni-P coating is more effective in increasing the E–C resistance. Also, the results showed that Ni-P coating, carburizing and untreated carbon steel behaved as ductile materials under erosion and E–C tests, and the maximum mass loss occurred at an impact angle of 45 deg. The synergism ratio was the lowest for the Ni-P coating, indicating that Ni-P coating improved an anti-E–C wear resistance.
