To explore the relationship between grinding and abrasive wear, a range of differing experiments has been performed. These include simple wear tests, dynamometer measurements of grinding forces, simple scratch tests with both idealized indentors and abrasive grits, and the microscopic examination of abrasive wheels and worn surfaces of steel. It is suggested that grinding and abrasive wear should be regarded as essentially similar mechanisms. The anomalies which occur with heat-treated steels, of a range of hardness, in both grinding and abrasive wear may be attributable to the influence of ploughing which affects the efficiency of the action of individual grits.

Good mechanical and wear properties of hot-work tool steels are needed for tools to withstand severe service conditions during their operational lifetime. Thus, the aim of this investigation was to correlate mechanical and wear properties with changes in microstructure of commercially available hot work tool steel Sitherm S361R. Hardness, impact toughness, tensile strength and wear tests were performed. Hot-work tool steel was heat treated at austenitizing temperature 1030 °C for 15 min in a horizontal vacuum furnace and gas quenched using nitrogen. One set of samples was investigated in as quenched state. Double tempering of samples was performed after quenching for 2 h at each of chosen temperatures, with first tempering temperature of 500 °C for the whole set of tempered samples. The second tempering was conducted at temperatures from 520 °C to 640 °C with increment of 30 °C for each set of samples. Microstructure of differently heat treated samples showed martensitic matrix, but different fraction and distribution of carbides, consequently influencing hardness, impact toughness, tensile strength, yield strength and wear resistance. Reciprocating sliding wear tests were carried out at room temperature in order to correlate microstructure of differently heat treated hot-work tool steel with wear. In order to achieve adhesive and abrasive wear mechanisms, 100Cr6 and Al2O3 balls were used as counter-body, respectively. Combination of adhesive and abrasive wear was observed for all specimens with different hardness when using 100Cr6 material as a counter body. However, in the case of Al2O3 abrasive wear was found as the prevailing wear mechanism.

The Relationship

Plastic deformation is a key variable producing accelerated intergranular (IG) carbide precipitation and chromium-depletion (sensitization) development in stainless steels. Deformation above 20% also produces transgranular (TG) carbides and depletion in the material. Research on TG carbides in SS is, however, limited and has indicated that the precipitation is site-specific preferring twin-fault intersections in 316 SS versus deformation-induced martensite and martensite lath-boundaries in 304 SS. Evidences indicating the relation between martensite and carbides were, however, sketchy.The objective of this work was to fundamentally understand the relationship between TG carbides and strain-induced martensite in 304 SS. Since strain-induced martensite forms at twin-fault intersections in 304 SS and the crystallography of the transformation is well understood, we believed that it could be key in understanding mechanisms of carbides and sensitization in SS. A 0.051% C, 304 SS deformed to ∽33% engineering strain (40% true strain) and heat treated at 670°C/ 0.1-10h was used for the research. The study was carried out on a Hitachi H-8000 STEM at 200 kV.

AbstractFrom the present study, vanadium additions up to 6.4% were added to a 14%Cr-3%C white iron, and the effect on the microstructure, hardness and abrasive wear were analysed. The experimental irons were melted in an open induction furnace and cast into sand moulds to obtain bars of 18, 25, and 37 mm thickness. The alloys were characterized by optical and electronic microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Bulk hardness was measured in the as-cast conditions and after a destabilization heat treatment at 900°C for 45 min. Abrasive wear resistance tests were undertaken for the different irons according to the ASTM G65 standard in both as-cast and heat-treated conditions under a load of 60 N for 1500 m. The results show that, vanadium additions caused a decrease in the carbon content in the alloy and that some carbon is also consumed by forming primary vanadium carbides; thus, decreasing the eutectic M7C3 carbide volume fraction (CVF) from 30% for the base iron to 20% for the iron with 6.4%V;but overall CVF content (M7C3 + VC) is constant at 30%. Wear behaviour was better for the heat-treated alloys and mainly for the 6.4%V iron. Such a behaviour is discussed in terms of the CVF, the amount of vanadium carbides, the amount of martensite/austenite in matrix and the amount of secondary carbides precipitated during the destabilization heat treatment.

Worn Surfaces

The wear resistances of four standard-grade high-alumina ceramics were evaluated and related to their machining ability. Three of the material grades contained 96% of alumina and 4% of either calcium silicate, or magnesium silicate, or manganese titanate in the starting-powder composition. The nominal alumina content in the fourth material was 99.7%. The specimens were fabricated using a low-pressure injection-molding forming technique, followed by thermal de-binding and sintering. After sintering the four materials differ significantly in their grain size, bending strength and Vickers hardness. No direct relationship between the microstructural parameters and the mechanical properties was found, but there was a grain-size dependence of the surface finish after grinding under industrial conditions. The two silicate-containing ceramics exhibited considerably higher wear resistances than the two silicate-free ceramics, but no direct relationship between the abrasive wear rate during grinding and the cutting time was observed. The cutting ability represents a valuable material characteristic for industrial practice, but it should not be directly used for predicting the wear rate during grinding. Quantitative differences in the cutting time and abrasive wear rate were manifested in the different topographies of the worn surfaces. Cutting resulted in relatively large area fractions of plastically deformed surfaces, whereas pullouts dominated the worn surfaces after grinding.

Crystalline approximants structurally related to decagonal quasicrystal in the as-cast and heat-treated Al75Pd15Fe10 alloys and defect structures in them have been studied by means of high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM). Structural defects of linear and planar types were found to exist extensively in the orthorhombic ε16-phase formed in the as-cast Al75Pd15Fe10 alloy. In contrast with the distribution and configuration of the defects in the as-cast ε16-phase, we found that high-temperature heat treatment promotes the formation of a kind of regular network of structural defects in the ε16-phase. This suggests that rearrangements of atom clusters and as well as defects occurred due to the heat treatment. The relationship between the distribution of atom clusters and the configuration of defects will be discussed.

Main Factor

Friction happens everywhere. Abrasives generated in tribological process will result in secondary wear. Abrasive wear is a kind of rather common but harmful wear, which is the main reason for the damage of fifty-percent mechanical components by friction. Surface texturing is an effective method to improve the tribological and lubricating performance of tribo-pairs. In this paper, with different-size diamond particles added into the lubricant and a surface of the tribo-pairs textured by different parameters (diameter and depth) with femtosecond laser, the relationship between the surface texture and the abrasive wear was researched, and the influence of the texture on the abrasive wear was analyzed. The friction experiments were carried out on UMT3. The microstructures were tested and analyzed by SEM, microscope and White Light Interferometer respectively. The experimental results showed that the size of the surface texture, compared with that of abrasives, is the main factor which determines the friction coefficient. As the size of the surface texture is much bigger than that of the abrasives, the texture can accommodate the abrasives efficiently, and thus the friction coefficient is reduced efficiently.

Different Levels

The relationship between mechanical properties and pearlite microstructure was investigated using various heat treatments on a hypereutectoid steels containing 1% carbon with different levels of vanadium and silicon. Specimens were heat treated at various temperatures ranging from 900 to 1200°C and transferred to salt bath conditions at 550, 580 and 620°C to examine the structural evolution of pearlite. The results show that the thickness of the cementite network increases with increasing reheat temperature. This is likely due to the larger austenite grain size reducing the grain boundary area available for proeutectoid cementite nucleation. It was found that the vanadium and silicon additions increased the strength of hypereutectoid steels through refinement of the microstructure and precipitation strengthening.

In this paper, low-energy proton irradiation experiments with different cumulative fluences were performed on samples of AISI 420 stainless steel that were either annealed or tempered at 600 or 700 °C. The effects of the cumulative proton irradiation fluence on the evolution of the microstructure of AISI 420 were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Scratch tests were performed using a Tribo Indenter nanomechanical tester, in order to investigate the effects of the cumulative fluence on the tribological properties of the AISI 420 stainless steel. The results indicate that the dislocation density of the microstructure near the surface of the AISI 420 stainless steel increases with higher cumulative proton irradiation fluences. Under the same load, the nanoscale friction coefficient and wear rate both decreased with increasing cumulative proton irradiation fluence. This indicates that the surface hardening effect induced by proton irradiation can diminish the nanoscale friction coefficient and wear rate.

Effective Life

The abrasive wear of blade tips in fluid catalytic cracking unit power recovery turbines is one of the principal ‘failure’ mechanisms for the parts. The occurrence of tip wear considerably shortens the effective life of the blade: generally well below the anticipated mechanical life of the component. This paper details the evaluation of mechanical properties and metallographic characteristics of a fully re-heat treated, Waspaloy on Waspaloy weldment for blade tip repair that will allow re-utilization of the blades.
