The Impact

The relevance of the search for solutions to increase the wear resistance of bucket teeth of excavating machine type front shovel is analyzed. The reasons for the wear of the teeth are considered. It is determined that when excavating machines work for rocks of VIII and IX categories, impact-abrasive wear of the inner side of the teeth and abrasive external wear occurs. It is proved that the cold-work hardening of Hadfield steel (the teeth material), which occurs during the excavating machine teeth work in the rocks of VIII and IX categories, reduces the impact-abrasive wear rate on the inner side of the teeth and does not affect the abrasive wear of the outer. The methods for thermomechanical treatment of the outer side of the excavating machine tooth is proposed. It can increase the wear resistance of Hadfield steel (110G13L) up to 1.7 times and lead to the self-sharpening effect of the tooth due to equalization of the wear rate of the outer and inner parts of the tooth. The efficiency factor of thermomechanical treatment to reduce the of abrasive wear rate of Hadfield steel is experimentally proved.

Main Component

Cr3C2-NiCr has high quality of wear resistant properties and is widely used in abrasive environment. In this paper, Cr3C2-NiCr coating was prepared on 45 steel by laser cladding technology. Analysis and research of the coatings were achieved by SEM and XRD to determine the main component and the different region on coatings. The hardness and the element component were investigated by micro-hardness tester and EDS. Abrasion tests were performed to contrast the wear resistance of two materials. The results indicate that the hardness of the coatings is nearly 3 times as the substrate. The coatings are well combined with the substrate and the phase of Cr3C2 has a large proportion in the coatings. Abrasion tests show that the average of wear rate on substrate is 5.2 times as the coatings.

The o-rings in ball retained overdentures deteriorate with time and need replacement to restore the retentive quality. We evaluated retrospectively the mechanical properties of o-rings after 3 years in function in one and two-piece implant-supported overdentures. The o-rings were retrieved from one-piece (Myriad snap, Equinox-Straumann, 3.3 x 13mm) and two-piece (Neo Biotech, 3.3 x 13mm) implant-supported overdenture patients. A total of 16 pairs of matrices were tested for wear, type of damage and elasticity using Pin on Disc method, USB Digital Camera in 30x zoom and Universal Tensile Machine respectively. The statistical analysis for independent groups were done with the Mann-Whitney U test. Assessment of used O-rings showed 84% more wear in the two-piece system with an abrasive type of damage while 46% wear in the one-piece system with a compressive type of damage. The o-rings in one-piece system showed increase in elongation and maximum displacement to 2% and 7% respectively, while two-piece system showed decrease in elongation and maximum displacement by 13% and 6% respectively. In one-piece system, the loss of retention was more with slow wear rate and in two-piece system, the wear resistance of O-rings decreased due to increased stiffness. Further studies to evaluate the changes in O-ring with increased sample size and at interval 1 year will pave way for insight into the progressive changes in the mechanical properties of an O-ring.

Abstract To improve the wear resistance of polyurethane (PU) coating and its adhesion to the steel substrate, a series of simple and practicable techniques were designed to mix nano-SiO2 with PU powder to cast a coating layer onto the steel. When the addition of nano-SiO2 was small, a network structure of PU-SiO2 was produced. It improved the wear resistance of the composite coating and its adhesion to the steel substrate. When the addition of nano-SiO2 was excessive, agglomerated nano-SiO2 particles not only affected the bond between the PU resin and the steel substrate but also became abrasive materials, intensifying the abrasion of the composite coating during friction. It resulted in lower bonding strength and poorer wear resistance of the composite coating. The wear rate and friction coefficient of 2 wt.% SiO2/PU composite coating were 1.52×10−6 cm3/min N and 0.31, respectively. Its wear resistance was about 10 times as high as that of the pure PU coating. Furthermore, a simple and practicable installation was designed to test the bonding strength between the coating and the steel substrate. The bonding strength between 2 wt.% SiO2/PU composite coating and the steel substrate was 7.33 MPa, which was 39% higher than that of the pure PU coating.

Using the double glow plasma surface alloying technique, a titanizing coating with improved wear resistance can be prepared on AISI 316 stainless steel. The purpose of this paper is to investigate process parameter effects by orthogonal array design. Four main factors, titanizing temperature, holding time, voltage difference and electrode distance, are adopted in orthogonal experiments. For each factor, four levels are set. The range analysis is used to investigate the factor and level influences on the coating thickness and specific wear rate. Meanwhile, the analysis of variance method is applied to calculate the contributions of each factor. The results indicate that temperature is most critical. In balancing the coating thickness and the wear property, the optimal process parameters are 950∘C, 3[Formula: see text]h, 200[Formula: see text]V and 18[Formula: see text]mm. Corresponding to the optimal process, the thickness and the specific wear rate of the titanizing coating are 10[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m and 2.609E−05 mm3⋅ N−1⋅ m−1, respectively.

The Core

Abrasive and erosive wear of components and machinery is an ongoing challenge in the oil sands industry in northern Alberta, Canada. To improve the wear resistance by increasing surface hardness of steels, heat treatments and deposition of hard layers of metal alloys (such as stellite) by fusion welding techniques are traditionally used. However, these deposition techniques are not applicable to all shapes and add considerable weight to the final component. Thermal spraying techniques such as the use of high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) composite coatings based on WC-Co cermet system offer better wear resistance and greater flexibility in applications. This study presents work on two feedstock powders, namely nanocrystalline and microcrystalline WC-Co cermets, with identical matrix phase content: WC-17wt.%Co. The novelty of the research is that an engineered duplex Co coated WC-17wt.%Co cermet particle designed to withstand coating spalling under elevated loads as well as to limit abrasive debridement during wear is introduced for the first time to produce a more homogeneously-dispersed coating microstructure. The engineered particle has 6wt.% of the ductile phase material mixed into the core to insure that the reinforcement WC phase is discontinuous to limit the debridement during wear, while remainder (11wt.%) of the Co is applied as a coating on the particle to improve the ductility. The mechanical properties of the overall particle are further improved by controlling the size of the reinforcing phase (WC) in the matrix (Co). This resulted in a WC-17wt.%Co particle containing a characteristic WC grain in the order of 350 nm in the core with the Co outer coating of 1–2 μm thick, making the powder particle as nanocrystalline. HVOF deposited coatings of the nanocrystalline and microcrystalline powders were examined for microhardness, fracture toughness, sliding abrasion (ASTM G133-05) and dry-sand rubber wheel abrasion (ASTM G65-04) wear performance. The wear rate under various loads and sliding distances was studied. In both the coatings, it was found that the wear rate increased with increasing applied loads, while it decreased with increasing sliding distances. 3D surface analysis of the wear tracks using atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed two distinctive mechanisms associated with the two coatings after abrasive wear. The improved wear resistance was attributed to the higher hardness value of the nanostructured WC-17wt.%Co coating. It was also found that the nanostructured WC-17wt.%Co coating has about twice the toughness of the conventional microstructured coating counterpart. The extent of the WC decarburization and the dissolution of Co in the coatings were also studied.
