There are a variety of opinions regarding the influence of retained austenite and carbides on the properties exhibited by carbonitrided steels. In this paper, the development of a model marking relationship between phase composition, and properties of hardened carbonitrided steel has been presented. A summary of the impact of structure on properties is provided in Table 1. In the study reported here, the impact of thermal processing conditions on retained austenite and carbides was examined for carbonitrided and hardened 20 (C22), 20H (20Cr4), 15HN (17CrNi6-6) and 16HG (16MnCr5) steels. The models that are reported were experimentally validated. In particular, the results obtained for structure with respect to hardness and abrasive wear resistance were discussed for carbonitrided and hardened 20H (20Cr4) steel.

The effect of quenching from 900°C (20 min exposure) and different tempering in the 250-650°C (for 1 hour) interval, as well as additionally preliminary carburization for 8 hours at 930°C, followed by a similar heat treatment on abrasive and shock-abrasive wear of low-carbon manganese (10-24%Mn) steels, phase composition and mechanical properties was studied. It was confirmed that an increase in the manganese reduces the abrasive wear resistance and increases the impact-abrasive wear resistance. The expediency of carburization of low-carbon manganese steels is shown in order to obtain the residual austenite in the structure which amount and stability must be optimized in relation to specific abrasive impact characterized by the dynamic ratio with taking into account the chemical composition.

This paper studies the influence of variables such as holding temperatures and times during austempering of High Chromium White Cast Iron (HCWCI), with the following chemical composition: Cr 25 %, C 3 %, Si 0.47 %, Mn 0.74 % and Mo 1.02 %. The aim of the austempering was to modify the percentage of retained austenite and its correlation to abrasive wear resistance under different conditions.Microhardness tests, SEM-EDS and XRD were performed to determine mechanical properties, chemical composition, and type of carbides and microstructures present, respectively. The tests complied with the ASTM G-65 standard. Results showed that the best performance against abrasion was achieved for austempering at 450 ºC with holding time of 6 hours.

To investigate the role of different distribution forms of Fe–Cr–C cladding layer in the impact abrasive wear performance of Hadfield steel, the over-lapped Fe–Cr–C cladding layer and dot-shaped Fe–Cr–C cladding layer were deposited, respectively, by plasma transferred arc (PTA) cladding on Hadfield steel. The microstructure, microhardness and impact abrasive wear performance of the two cladding layers under the impact of glass sand, granite and quartz sand were investigated. The results showed that both microstructures of the cladding layers were hypoeutectic Fe–Cr–C microstructures. The average microhardness of the over-lapped cladding layer and dot-shaped cladding layer was around 560 HV0.2 and 750 HV0.2, respectively. The over-lapped Fe–Cr–C cladding layer could only improve the impact abrasive wear resistance of the Hadfield steel under the wear condition of the glass sand. Meanwhile, the dot-shaped Fe–Cr–C cladding layer could improve the impact abrasive wear resistance of the Hadfield steel under all the three kinds of the abrasives because of the overall strengthening effect of its convex shape and the hypoeutectic FeCrC microstructure.

The new low alloy martensitic wear resistant steel 25Si2MnNi3 and steel 53Si2MnNi3 are developed, which hardness are about HB450 and HB600 respectively, the impact abrasive wear resistance of new low alloy steel relative to high manganese steel ZGMn13 is investigated on MLD-10 type impact abrasive wear tester under the different impact energy, and the wear mechanism is analyzed. As a result, the new low alloy martensitic steel which impact toughness is well always obtains better impact abrasive wear resistance than that of steel ZGMn13 under different impact energy, and the primary wear mechanism gradually changes from micro-ploughing and micro-cutting to micro-fatigue and micro-cracking with impact energy increasing.

This paper presents the experimental determination of the effect of hardness of the polyurethane (PUR) in a form of the elastomer foam used in various parts of machines or appliances subjected to intensive abrasive wear. Such elements, among others, are static and dynamic technical seals, bumpers, shock-absorbing parts in joints of machine components, and elements of transport equipment in mining or in aggregate and mineral processing [L. 1–3]. Intensive abrasive wear also concerns parts of agricultural and construction machines, road transport, and transport packaging, as well as protective coatings, housing or shields of various machines, and equipment elements [L. 4, 5]. An increase in the abrasive wear resistance of directly determines an increase in the durability and operational reliability of machines and equipment [L. 6]. The hardness of the elastomeric polyurethane influences its physicomechanical and tribological properties [L. 7]. So far, relatively few works have focused on research into the effect of various factors, including the hardness of PUR on the tribological properties of PUR. The aim of this study is to broaden knowledge on the impact of the polyurethane hardness on its resistance to abrasive wear.

The Deep Cryogenic Treatment (DCT) has been used for improvement of steel mechanical properties, basically the abrasive wear resistance. At this work the cryogenic treatment at -190oC for 20 hours was applied, after conventional heat treatment, to improve its abrasive wear resistance. The specimens, divided in two groups, had been austenitized for forty five minutes at 965oC and 1065oC, respectively, then quenched in oil at room temperature. Afterwards they were tempered at 565oC for 90 minutes, and then cooled in air. Subsequently some samples were treated cryogenically, and some of them were submitted to a new cycle of tempering at 565oC for 90 minutes. The performed experiment included: hardness brinell, Xraydifratometry, metallography and micro-abrasive wear test. Variations in the microstructure with an improvement in the abrasive wear coefficient were found. These variations are probably a positive effect of the DCT on the samples microstructure. The microstructure were transformed from blocks of parallel lath martensite to small parallel or almost parallel packages of fine needles forming austenite. Traces of previous or retained austenite were found delimiting the grains. It is presumed that micro-carbide homogeneously distributed in the matrix and in the grain´s contours of the retained austenite was formed.
