This work addresses an urgent problem which is saving alloying elements (Ni, Mo, Nb, V, W and others) -which very scarce in Ukraine and other countries- while increasing the physical, mechanical and operational properties of the new designed and developed wear-resistant cast irons. Optical microscopy, x-ray structure analysis, transmission and scanning (fracture) electron microscopy methods, different-thermal, magnetometric and x-ray analyses, as well as hardness and micro-hardness tests, impact energy, and abrasive wear tests in environments of cast-iron shots were employed in the research. The work summarizes the controlling conditions for forming various metastable phases by including deformation (or strain) induced phase transformation (DIPT) and through realization in the process of testing. New wear-resistant economical alloyed cast irons with a metastable austenite-carbide and austenite-martensite-carbide structure are developed, which are being strain- hardened under impact-abrasive wearing operation conditions due to the realization of process DIPT in the superficial layer. These new cast irons are intended for manufacturing parts of different equipment (protective plates of sinter machines, furnaces, tracks for transferring raw materials at iron and steel works, etc.). These cast irons do not contain expensive and deficit alloying components, like nickel, molybdenum, vanadium, and more expensive similar materials. Simultaneously they possess enhanced impact-abrasive wear resistance.

Two High Alloyed Cast Irons (HACI) were studied, both belonging to the Fe-C-Cr-Si-X system where X represented a strong carbide forming element. One of these alloys was obtained after adding Nb, V and Ti to the chemical composition of the other alloy. Raw materials originated from spun cast rolls for hot strip mill were submitted to different heat treatments routes, in order to study the influence of alloying elements on the microstructure. Both HACI grades contained a mixture of martensite and retained austenite matrix in the as-cast conditions and after quenching. Differential Thermal Analysis was carried out on the heat treated samples in order to determine the phase transformations occurring during re-melting and subsequent solidification sequence. Diffusionless transformations leading to various types of martensite were found in the matrix. Bulky NbC carbides precipitating at the beginning of the solidification process strongly influence the nature and the rate of the subsequent diffusional phase transformations, particularly for HACI grade with Nb, V and Ti additions. Quantitative metallography was done to determine graphite, NbC carbides, cementite and matrix volume fraction in HACI studied grades.

In order to improve the wear resistance and reduce the sintering temperature of alumina ceramics, Y2O3powder added in the system of MgO-CaO-SiO2-Al2O3alumina ceramics were prepared by the technique of pressureless sintering. The properties of the ceramic samples were investigated by the measurements of bulk density, wear rate, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the wear rate of alumina ceramic contenting Y2O3 of the 0.8wt% is 0.041‰. Adding the yttrium oxide to the raw materials and then calcine them to ceramics, which can reduces the sintering temperature, promote the densification and improve wear-resistant property of alumina ceramics.

In the present study austempered ductile irons (ADI) with lower bainitic structure are investigated. Nanosized particles (50nm) of titanium carbonitride + titanium nitride TiCN+TiN and titanium nitride TiN are added to the casting volume. The samples microstructure is studied by optical metallography and X-Ray analysis. The influence of the nanosized additives on the kinetics of the bainitic transformation and on the morphology of the bainitic structure is investigated. The abrasive wear testing, hardness measurements and impact strength are carried out. It is established that the presence of nanoadditives in the bainitic cast irons leads to the changes in their microstructure which increases their mechanical characteristics and abrasive wear resistance. The studied nanocomposite materials expand the potential for new ADI applications in the industry.

Salah satu material yang dapat digunakan pada kondisi lingkungan abrasif adalah white cast irons atau abrasion-resistant cast iron. EN-JN2019 adalah salah satu jenis besi cor yang dapat digunakan pada kondisi ini. Pada besi cor  ini terkandung unsur karbon, silikon, mangan, dan chromium. Analisa ketahanan aus material ini telah dilakukan dengan menggunakan factorial design terhadap dua kombinasi kandungan chromium (1% dan 2%), dua kombinasi kandungan silikon (1% dan 1,5%) dan dua kombinasi ketebalan sampel (5mm dan 30mm). Ketebalan sampel merupakan representasi dari laju pendinginan. Kajian terhadap kekerasan, struktur mikro, uji impact dan uji aus dari delapan sampel yang dihasilkan dari proses pengecoran telah dilaksanakan pula. Hasil pengujian kekerasan menunjukkan bahwa kekerasan menurun dengan meningkatnya ketebalan dan disertai dengan perubahan struktur mikro sebagai hasil dari laju pendinginan yang semakin lambat. Penambahan kandungan chromium meningkatkan kekerasan karena adanya pembentukan karbida. Penambahan kandungan silikon menurunkan kekerasan akibat pembentukan grafit yang lebih mudah. Pengaruh kandungan chromium dan silikon terhadap kekerasan memiliki ketergantungan  satu  dengan  lainnya,  karena  penambahan  silikon  menekan  pertumbuhan  karbida.  Dari  hasil pengujian impact didapatkan hasil, pada semua variasi chromium, silikon dan ketebalan tidak memiliki pengaruh terhadap harga impact. Sedangkan dari hasil pengujian keausan  didapatkan bahwa kekerasan  berbanding lurus dengan nilai wear resistant, semakin tinggi kekerasan maka nilai wear resistant akan semakin meningkat.Kata kunci: ketahanan aus, EN-JN2019, kandungan chromium, kandungan silikon, laju pendinginan, factorial design, pembentukan karbida.
