The present work is devoted to the research into the microstructure and microhardness of structural steel 34CrNi1Mo after electrolytic-plasma nitriding in a cathode heating mode. The technology of electrolyte-plasma hardening provides a reliable quality and the required mechanical properties of the products which are often subjected to wear and temperature-force actions.

In the article changes in the structure and mechanical properties of R6M5 steel surface layer after electrolytic-plasma nitriding are shown. The optimal mode of electrolytic-plasma nitriding of R6M5 high-speed steel in electrolyte based on carbamide, which allows saturation of the surface with nitrogen from low-temperature plasma and get the modified layer of high hardness and wear-resistance. It is established, that after electrolytic-plasma nitriding reduced R6M5 steel wear rate and increases its resistance to abrasive wear. Perspectivity of use an electrolytic-plasma nitriding method to improve performance cutting tools made from R6M5 steel is shown.

In the work, the surface of samples made of 25X1MF steel was saturated with chromium. For this, the method of vacuum activated diffusion chromium plating was used. In this process, sodium chloride was used as an activator. It was found that vacuum activated diffusion chromium plating of samples made of 25Kh1MF steel leads to the formation of a surface layer containing from 87 to 97 wt.% of this element. It was found that an increase in the temperature of the process and its duration leads to an increase in the chromium content on the surface of the samples. The tests showed that in the case of cavitations-erosion effects on the surface of chrome-plated samples of steel 25X1MF they have higher resistance. With abrasive wear, the resistance of the chrome-plated steel surface is 1.8 to 3 times higher compared to untreated material.

The article investigates the changing in the structure and phase composition of the R6M5 high-speed steel surface layer after electrolytic-plasma nitriding. It is found that after electrolytic-plasma nitriding on the R6M5 steel surface, modified layer is formed, which consist from a diffusion layer. It was showed phase composition of difysion layer is changing depending on the nitriding. It is found that electrolytic-plasma nitriding lead to accelerated formation of the modified layer. It is determined that after electrolytic-plasma nitriding on the high-speed steel surface, modified layer is formed, consisting only of the diffusion layer.

In this work the influence of electrolytic-plasma nitriding on the abrasive wear-resistance of R6M5 high-speed steel were under research. We registered that after electrolytic-plasma nitriding on R6M5 steel surface modified layer is formed with 20-40 μm thickness and with increased microhardness of 9000-12200 MPa. Testing mode for the nitrided samples high-speed steel on abrasive wear developed. It is established, that electrolyte-plasma nitriding allows to increase wear-resistance of R6M5 steel surface layer comparing to original. It was determined that abrasive wear-resistance of R6M5 steel surface layer is increased to 25% as a result of electrolytic plasma nitriding. Thus, studies have demonstrated the feasibility and applicability of electrolytic-plasma nitriding in order to improve cutting tools work resource, working under friction and wear conditions.

The features of the formation of low-temperature plasma and its interaction with a metal surface were studied in this work. A qualitative model of the interaction of low-temperature plasma with the steel surface during nitriding has been developed by summarizing the available research results and taking into account the specific features of the electrolyte plasma process. In accordance with this model, in the first moments of the interaction of low-temperature plasma with the steel surface in the near-surface layer, which accelerated formation of the Feα(N) solid solution occurs due to the action of directed bombardment of charged particles, which enhances the adsorption and diffusion of nitrogen into the interior of the material, then dispersed particles of nitride of alloying elements are formed as further saturation in places with an increased level of free energy (at lattice defects, at grain boundaries, etc.). Subsequently, transformations occur in the surface zone of the layer when the limiting solubility of nitrogen in iron is exceeded, which leading to the formation of nitrides of the γ′-phase (Fe4N) and ε-phase (Fe2–3N) in it. Thus, electrolyte plasma nitriding opens up many new possibilities, in particular: varying the nitriding temperature over a wide range (400–700 ºC), targeted production of a nitrided layer consisting only of a diffusion layer without a layer of compounds, while obtaining a diffusion layer with particles γ’-phase (Fe4N) of plate form and with finely dispersed nitrides MN (CrN). The use of an electric discharge in an electrolyte (low-temperature plasma) makes it possible to increase the heating rate and diffusion saturation of the material surface. This work is of practical importance, since the studied method of electrolytic-plasma nitriding makes it possible to obtain a modified surface layer on steels with high physical and mechanical properties.

The necessity and possibility of using nanoindentation in studying the physical and mechanical properties of plasma-hardened wheel steel are considered. The goal of the study is demonstration and substantiation of significant differences in the mechanical properties and behavior of the materials in nanoscale tests from those determined in traditional macroscopic tests. The method was implemented using a NanoHardnessTecter nanohardness tester. The electric field formed in the nanoscale hardness tester pressed on the indenter and the diamond tip of the indenter is immersed in the surface layer of the material under study. The characteristics of the surface layer are determined using the developed software. Knowledge of the physicomechanical characteristics of the material (hardness, Young’s modulus, elastic recovery, etc.) which affect the wear resistance of the surface layers, allows one to evaluate and select the optimal surface modification technology using plasma hardening. The credibility of determination depends on the parameters of measuring equipment and compliance with the requirements to the depth of the imprint depending on the thickness of the hardened layer. The studies were carried out on the samples cut from the rim and crest of a railway wheel subjected to surface plasma hardening on a UPNN-170 installation (Russia). It is shown that the hardness (according to Vickers HV and H) of the rim is greater, and Young’s modulus, on the contrary, is less than the corresponding characteristics of the crest. Moreover, the wear resistance of hardened structural steel increases after nanostructural friction treatment.

The features of the tribomodification process of friction surfaces of steel 40Kh with modified vermiculite are studied. The mechanism for forming of ceramic-metal coating is refined, the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the coating are determined. It is found that ceramic-metal layer 6.0...7.5 μm thickness is formed on the friction surface, which contains large amount of carbon, silicon, oxygen and minimum amount of iron (only 8...9 %). The alloying depth of the surface layer with elements that make up the modified vermiculite reaches 0.25 mm
