Properties of high manganese austenitic cast steel are not satisfactory; therefore, this material should be hardened. Currently, the commonly used method of hardening does not allow eliminating problems related to premature wear of railway frogs. Therefore, many studies have been carried out to find an alternative method to obtain improved wear resistance of such elements. The article presents an analysis of the mechanical and tribological properties of base and hardened, by different methods, high-manganese cast steel applied for turnouts. Tests were performed for three hardening methods: explosive, pressure-rolling, and dynamic impact. The results were compared with the properties of base material after saturation treatment. The conducted tests allowed the determination of hardness profiles of hardened surfaces, as well as the wear resistance and coefficient of friction, and the obtained results are very promising. Hardening by dynamic impact provided much better results in relation to presently used explosive hardening technology.

Abstract Widely used in the power and mining industry, cast Hadfield steel is resistant to wear, but only when operating under impact loads. Components made from this alloy exposed to the effect of abrasion under load-free conditions are known to suffer rapid and premature wear. To increase the abrasion resistance of cast high-manganese steel under the conditions where no dynamic loads are operating, primary titanium carbides are formed in the process of cast steel melting, to obtain in the alloy after solidification and heat treatment, the microstructure composed of very hard primary carbides uniformly distributed in the austenitic matrix of a hardness superior to the hardness of common cast Hadfield steel. Hard titanium carbides ultimately improve the wear resistance of components operating under shear conditions. The measured microhardness of the as-cast matrix in samples tested was observed to increase with the increasing content of titanium and was 380 HV0.02 for the content of 0.4%, 410 HV0.02 for the content of 1.5% and 510 HV0.02 for the content of 2 and 2.5%. After solution heat treatment, the microhardness of the matrix was 460÷480 HV0.02 for melts T2, T3 and T6, and 580 HV0.02 for melt T4, and was higher than the values obtained in common cast Hadfield steel (370 HV0.02 in as-cast state and 340÷370 HV0.02 after solution heat treatment). The measured microhardness of alloyed cementite was 1030÷1270 HV0.02; the microhardness of carbides reached even 2650÷4000 HV0.02.

A study of the structure and strain-hardening ability relationship was carried out in this work for wear-resistant steels of two structural classes: high-manganese austenitic steel 110G13L and metastable austenitic chromium-manganese steel 60G9KhL. It is shown that the strain-hardening ability can be estimated using a methodologically simple engineering criterion. The criterion determines the metal tendency to harden by determining the Rockwell hardness at the bottom of the indentation cup of the Brinell press indenter

Abstract High-manganese cast steels are characterised by a high abrasion resistance under friction conditions with a simultaneous influence of pressure and impacts. This cast steel is especially suitable for castings of excavator’s scoops, track links, streetcars crossovers, parts of crushers and mills for braking up of hard materials [1-4]. In order to obtain high quality castings of high-manganese cast steels in moulds on the high-silica sand matrices it is necessary to apply protective coatings, which prevent a direct contact between metal and matrix (SiO2). Manganese after being poured into a mould can undergo a partial oxidation forming MnO, which reacts with silica. As a result low-melting manganese silicates are formed, which in a form of a tight layer adhere to the casting surface, significantly increasing a labour input related to cleaning. Three kinds of protective coatings were tested: zirconium, corundum and magnesite. As a base moulding sands on high-silica sand matrices with three kinds of resol resins were applied. The quality of the obtained casting surface was assessed in dependence of the protective coating and resin kind and also in dependence of the metallostatic pressure value.

Abstract The results of the modification of austenitic matrix in cast high-manganese steel containing 11÷19% Mn with additions of Cr, Ni and Ti were discussed. The introduction of carbide-forming alloying elements to this cast steel leads to the formation in matrix of stable complex carbide phases, which effectively increase the abrasive wear resistance in a mixture of SiC and water. The starting material used in tests was a cast Hadfield steel containing 11% Mn and 1.34% C. The results presented in the article show significant improvement in abrasive wear resistance and hardness owing to the structure modification with additions of Cr and Ti.

High-manganese Hadfield cast steel is commonly used for machine components operating under dynamic load conditions. The high fracture toughness and abrasive wear resistance of this steel are the result of an austenitic structure, which—while being ductile—at the same time tends to surface harden under the effect of cold work. Absence of dynamic loads (e.g., in the case of sand abrasion) causes rapid and premature wear of parts. To improve the abrasive wear resistance of high-manganese cast steel for operation under the conditions free from dynamic loads, primary niobium carbides are produced in this cast steel during the melting process to obtain in castings, after melt solidification, the microstructure consisting of an austenitic matrix and primary niobium carbides uniformly distributed in this matrix. The measured hardness of the tested samples as cast and after solution heat treatment is 260–290 HV and is about 30–60 HV higher than the hardness of common Hadfield cast steel, which is 230 HV. Compared to common Hadfield cast steel, the abrasive wear resistance of the tested high-manganese cast steel measured in the Miller test is at least three times higher at the niobium content of 3.5 wt%. Increasing the niobium content to 4.5 wt%. in the tested samples increases this wear resistance even more.
