Spheroidal carbides cast irons (SCIs) are used in severe conditions where often occur erosion and due to their excellent wear resistance characteristics. In this study, three kinds of SCIs with a variation in matrices are tested and evaluated as shredding blade of uniaxial rotary glass shredder in recycling factories where often occurs extreme abrasion with the crushed glass. They are SCI-VCrNi, SCI-VMn, and SCI-Vw with hard (2400Hv) spheroidal vanadium carbides (VC). As a result, SCI-Vw reveals excellent wear resistance, approximately 1/12 of wear removal in weight, compare to other two materials of SCI-VCrNi and SCI-VMn. Spheroidal carbides nodularity(70%) and volume fraction of VCs(approximately 20%) are similar in three kinds of SCIs. The hardness of matrix of SCI-Vw (800Hv) is greater than that of SCI-VCrNi (320Hv) and SCI-VMn (380Hv). Therefore the experimental results are interpreted that hardness of matrix are dominant factor for abrasion. Based on this experimental study, SCI-Vw is an effective material for abrasion occurred on the blade of the glass shredder.

Abstract Cast Hadfield steel is characterised by high abrasion resistance, provided, however, that it is exposed to the effect of dynamic loads. During abrasion without loading, e.g. under the impact of loose sand jet, its wear resistance drops very drastically. To increase the abrasion resistance of this alloy under the conditions where no pressure is acting, primary vanadium carbides are formed in the metallurgical process, to obtain a composite structure after the melt solidification. The primary, very hard, carbides uniformly distributed in the austenitic matrix are reported to double the wear resistance of samples subjected to the effect of a silicon carbide-water mixture.

With the deepening of marine development activities, human-related sea-related behavior has gradually moved from shallow sea to deep sea. In this paper, the deep sea environment of the thruster bearing of the deep sea space station is characterized by high pressure, high corrosion, large amount of microorganisms and sediment. The Modified UHMWPE is developed, and the friction under simulated seawater conditions is studied by using different proportions of samples. The experimental results show that the materials developed in this study have lower friction coefficient and better wear resistance than Thordon and Feroform materials, and are very suitable for deep sea environment.

Increasing environment noise pollution is a matter of great concern and of late has been attracting public attention. Sound produces the minute oscillatory changes in air pressure and is audible to the human ear when in the frequency range of 20Hz to 20 kHz. The chief sources of audible sound are the magnetic circuit of transformer which produces sound due to magnetostriction phenomenon, vibration of windings, tank and other structural parts, and the noise produced by cooling equipments. This paper presents the validation for sound level measurement scale, why A-weighted scale is accepted for sound level measurement, experimental study carried out on 10MVA Power Transformer. Also presents the outcomes of comparison between No-Load sound & Load sound level measurement, experimental study carried out on different transformer like - 10MVA, 50MVA, 100MVA Power Transformer, to define the dominant factor of transformer sound generation.

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.

Abstract Carpenter CTS-204P (Micro Melt 20-4) alloy is a highly wear- and corrosion-resistant, air-hardening martensitic cold-work stainless die steel produced using Carpenter’s Micro-Melt powder metallurgy process. The excellent wear resistance of the alloy is provided by a significant volume fraction of hard vanadium-rich carbides, while the outstanding corrosion resistance of the alloy is obtained as a result of the chromium-rich matrix. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, and elasticity. It also includes information on corrosion and wear resistance as well as forming, heat treating, and machining. Filing Code: SS-1051. Producer or source: Carpenter Specialty Alloys.

The wear resistance and wear characteristics of cluster-gradient architecture (CGA) nanostructured topocomposites are studied. The specifics of tribocontact interaction under microcutting conditions is considered. The reasons for retention of high wear resistance of this class of nanostructured topocomposites are studied. The mechanisms of energy dissipation from the tribocontact zone, due to the nanogeometry and the structural-phase structure of CGA topocomposites are analyzed. The role of triboactivated deformation and diffusion processes in providing increased wear resistance of carbide-based topocomposites is shown. They are tested under the conditions of blade processing of heat-resistant titanium alloy.
