Abstract. СVD chromium coatings are evaporated on steel substrate from chrome-organic compounds. For crystallization with forming of nano-particles of chromium carbides, subsequent heating (annealing) of tool steel with hybrid coatings is carrying out. Significant increase of micro-hardness of the coating up to 27000 MPa is observed due to the dispersion strengthening. Optimal annealing parameters (temperature and duration) are determined, which maximally strengthen the coatings and increase their adhesion to the steel substrate.

By plasma jet surface metallurgy, the thick composite coatings reinforced by in-situ TiC were produced on low carbon steel. Composition, microstructures and performance were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), micro-hardness tester and wear tester. The results showed that the excellent bonding between the coating and the carbon steel substrate was achieved by strong metallurgical interface. The microstructure of the coating is mainly composed of γ-(Fe, Ni) dendrite, M23C6, CrB and in-situ synthesized TiC ceramic particle. Because of the particulate reinforcement, the dispersion strengthening, refinement strengthening, micro-hardness and wear resistant of Fe-based coating can be enhanced.

The objective of this research is to characterize the effects of heat treatment such as quenching, tempering and TiN coating on mechanical and physical properties of duylos 2510 steel. These mechanical properties include wear rate, hardness, impact toughness, whereas physical properties are microstructures. Duylos 2510 steel is a cold work tool steel and has chemical composition (wt %) of 1C; 0,6 Cr; 0,1 V; 1 Mn; 0,25 Si and 0,6 W.Quenching process has been conducted by heating the specimens on austenite temperature of 800 °C with the soaking time of 30 minutes and then cooling these specimens in oil medium. Tempering process was done at temperatures of 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 dan 600 °C with holding time of 2 hours.TiN coating has been deposited on substrates by sputtering technique of Physical Vapor Deposition at temperatures of 100, 150, 200 and 250 °C with sputtering time of 45 minutes. The mechanical and physical properties have been characterized by wear test, Vickers micro hardness test, Charpy impact test, and metallography test. This research was performed at room temperature and the major parameters of this research were tempering and sputtering temperatures.The results show that tempering temperature variations give significant modification of mechanical properties. In general, the Vickers micro-hardness decreases if tempering temperatures of the specimen increase. The highest Vickers micro-hardness of TiN coatings is 290 HV0,01 for the specimen having sputtering temperature of 200 °C. Wear rate and impact energy increase if tempering temperatures increase. The results also show that the Vickers micro-hardness of coated specimens is higher than the micro Vickers hardness of non-coated specimens

In different fields of high abrasive processes, e.g. in agriculture and mining industry, components made of tempering steel are additionally protected with a wear resistant alloy on high loaded sections. An industrial standard process flow includes heat treatment of components after hardfacing process. However, the exact effect of heat treatment procedure on wear performance of hardfacings is still mostly unknown.The main aim of this study was to determine the influence of substrate heat treatment on iron and nickel based hardfacings under two and three-body conditions. Commonly used wear resistant tempered steel was used as substrate material. Heat treatment investigations were performed on two Fe-based tool steel alloys (M2 and FeVCrC) and a Ni-based alloy reinforced with WC/W2C (Ni-FTC) deposited by plasma transferred arc technology (PTA), respectively. After hardfacing a heat treatment optimized for tempered steel substrate was performed on hardfaced samples.Microstructure investigations were done by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and hardness measurements. Additionally wear behavior was estimated by dry-sand rubber-wheel test (three-body abrasion) and continuous impact abrasion test (two-body abrasion).Results showed significant influence of heat treatment, due to microstructural changes, on wear performance under 3-body conditions of Fe-based tool steels. This effect was not as pronounced in Ni-based alloy than in types of tool steel. Interestingly, in both M2 tool steel and Ni-based systems heat treatment led to decrease 2-body wear resistance. However, heat treated V-rich tool steel type showed good wear performance in continuous impact abrasion test. Composed wear map, based on this study, shows critical changes in general wear performance for investigated hardfacings.

Abstract This article reports the microstructure evolution in TP347HFG austenitic steel during the aging process. The experiments were carried out at 700°C with different aging time from 500 to 3,650 h. The metallographic results show that the coherent twin and incoherent twin are existed in the original TP347HFG grains, while they gradually vanished with the increase of the aging time. After aging for 500 h, a lot of fine, dispersed particles precipitated from the matrix, but they disappeared after aging for 1,500 h. When the aging time extend to 3,650 h, the precipitates appeared apparently coarse in TP347HFG steel, which include the M23C6 and σ phase; besides, the micro-hardness of TP347HFG also changes during the aging, which was closely related to the effect of dispersion strengthening and solution strengthening. The results of the nonlinear ultrasonic measurement reveal that the β′ of TP347HFG steel was also changed with the aging time. It first increased at 0–500 h, then reduced later, and increased finally at 1,500–3,650 h. The variation of β′ in TP347HFG was influenced by a combined effect of the twin microstructure and the precipitate phase, which indicate that the nonlinear ultrasonic technique can be utilized to characterize the microstructure evolution in TP347HFG.

The paper presents the results of a study of the microstructure, chemical composition, microhardness and corrosion resistance of Cr-B coatings produced on Vanadis 6 tool steel. In this study, chromium and boron were added to the steel surface using a laser alloying process. The main purpose of the study was to determine the impact of those chemical elements on surface properties. Chromium and boron as well as their mixtures were prepared in various proportions and then were applied on steel substrate in the form of precoat of 100 µm thickness. Depending on the type of precoat used and laser processing parameters, changes in microstructure and properties were observed. Coatings produced using precoat containing chromium and boron mixture were characterized by high microhardness (900 HV0.05–1300 HV0.005) while maintaining good corrosion resistance. It was also found that too low laser beam power contributed to the formation of cracks and porosity.
