Tungsten, molybdenum and cobalt were co-diffused into the surface of undecarburized 45 steel at 1150 °C for 6 hours by a double glow plasma surface alloying technique. A Fe-W-Mo-Co type gradient surface alloyed layer with very low carbon content was formed. Thickness of the surface alloyed layer is 225.2μm. Concentrations of alloying elements Co, W and Mo in the alloyed layer are mostly ranged from 21 to 14 wt.%, 12 to 6 wt.% and 7 to 5 wt.%, respectively. The concentrations of alloying elements basically meet the requirements of W11Mo7Co23 type age-hardened high speed steel. The alloyed samples were solution heat treated, ageing and high-temperature tempering. The results show that the surface alloyed layer formed on 45 steel exhibits very strong age-hardening property and anti-temper softening ability as the metallurgical age-hardened high speed steel, the surface age-hardened high speed steel on ingot and decarburized carbon steel.

The surface age alloy of Fe-Co-W-Mo was formed on 25Cr2Mo2V steel by double glow plasma surface alloying technique. The effects of processing parameters on the depth, composition and constituent phases of surface alloying layer were investigated. Results indicate that the plasma processing parameters influenced significantly the surface alloying process. The composition of the surface layer nears W11Mo7Co23Fe59wt%, the depth of the surface alloying layer is 150μm after processing at 1100°C for 6hr. The microstructure of the cross section was composed of three sub-layers, that is, the deposition layer, the diffusion layer and the matrix. The constituent phases of the deposition layer were Fe7W6 type μ phase Fe2W type laves phase, Fe3Mo and a little amount of M2C type carbide, that of the diffusion layer were α-Fe and some intermetallics.

The plasma surface alloying low-alloy high speed steel (HSS) is carried out in vacuum chamber where a source electrode (W-Mo) and a work piece are properly placed. By using the sputter of glow-discharge, under the common function of electric field and temperature field, ?????? the desired alloying elements (W- Mo) are sputtered from the source cathode, traveling toward the substrate. Subsequently the alloying elements deposit onto the surface of the substrate, forming alloy diffusion layer which the depth may vary from several micron to several hundreds micron. In the end a surface low-alloy HSS steel would be produced after ultra-saturation ion carbonization. The composition of the alloyed layer is equal or similar with it of low-alloy HSS. The carbonized layer, without coarse eutectic ledeburite structure, possesses high density of finely and dispersed alloy carbides with tungsten equivalent 10% above and a significant improvement in surface hardness and wear resistance. The principle of plasma surface alloying and its test results and commercial products application are introduced in this paper.

Cobalt- superhard high speed steel layer has been formed on the surface of low alloy steel 20Cr2V by tungsten-molybdenum-cobalt plasma surface alloying and following plasma carbonizing. After plasma surface alloying, a homogeneous and dense surface alloying layer was formed, thickness of which is 200μm. Composition, microstructure and properties of the alloying layer were investigated. Contents of W, Mo, Co, Cr, V and C in the surface layer reach 8%,5%, 6% ,4%,1.5% and 1.5% or so respectively. The concentrations of alloy elements basically meet the requirements of high cobalt type superhard high speed steel. Constituent phases of the surface layer were martensite, M7C3 ,M2C and Cr3C2 carbides and μ phase after quenching treatment. The advanced gradient superhard high speed steel possesses not only high surface hardness, high anti-temper softening ability but also enough toughness.
