Abstract The article presents results of heat treatment on the high chromium cast iron. The study was carrying out on samples cut from the casting made from chromium cast iron. Those were hardened at different temperatures, then tempered and soft annealed. The heat treatment was performed in a laboratory chamber furnace in the Department of Engineering Alloys and Composites at Faculty of Foundry Engineering AGH. At each stage of the heat treatment the hardness was measured by Vickers and Rockwell methods, and the microscope images were done. Additionally based on images from the optical microscope the microstructure was assessed. Based on these results, the effect of hardening, tempering and soft annealing on the microstructure and hardness of high chromium cast iron was studied. Next the effects of different hardening temperatures on the properties of high chromium cast iron were compared. The study led to systemize the literature data of the parameters of heat treatment of high chromium cast iron, and optimal conditions for heat treatment was proposed for casts of similar properties and parameters.

The type, shape and distribution of carbide take directly effect on the mechanical properties of high chromium castings. Vanadium is able to stabilize the structure of carbide in high chromium cast iron, meanwhile the hardness of carbide containing vanadium can reaches about 2800HV. In some cases, vanadium can also refine the microstructure. Rare-earth is able to change the shape of carbide in cast iron, refine the grain size of ferrite and improve the mechanical properties of castings. In this experiment, intention of adding vanadium and rare-earth is modification of mechanical properties with the proper heat treatment technology. With the help of SEM, the characteristics of carbide, such as shape, distribution and quantity can be observed and mechanical properties have been improved for better wear-resistance.
