Plasma Paste Boriding

Plasma paste boriding was employed in order to produce the boride layers on Nimonic 80A-alloy. The process was carried out at temperatures of 1023 K, 1073 K and 1123 K for 3, 4 and 6 h in a gas mixture of 50% H2-50% Ar. Borax paste was used as a boron source. The microstructure of the produced surface layers consisted of the mixture of nickel borides and chromium borides. The effect of processing temperature and duration on the thickness of the borided layers was observed. The theoretical thicknesses of the borided layers were estimated using an integral diffusion model. A good correlation was obtained between the theoretical (modeled) and experimental depths of the plasma paste borided layers. The boride layers were characterized by a high hardness ranging from 1160 HV to 2132 HV. The multiphase character of the produced layers resulted in differences in hardness. A significant improvement of the wear resistance of the plasma paste borided Nimonic 80A-alloy was observed in comparison with the non-borided alloy.

When the ductile iron which is also known as Spheroidal Graphite (SG) iron, is subjected to austempering heat treatment, the material is known as austempered ductile iron (ADI). This material has good mechanical properties and has various applications in different fields. This revolutionary material with its excellent combination of strength, ductility, toughness and wear resistance has the potential to replace some of the commonly used conventional materials such as steel, aluminium and other light weight alloys as it offers production advantage as well. One of the problems encountered during manufacturing is machining of ADI parts owing to its high hardness and wear resistance. Many researchers over a period of time have reported the machinability aspects of the ADI. This paper presents a review on the developments made on the machinability aspects of ADI along with other mechanical properties.

Electron Beam Selective Melting

Additive manufacturing (AM) nickel-based superalloys have been demonstrated to equate or exceed mechanical properties of cast and wrought counterparts but their tribological potentials have not been fully realized. This study investigates fretting wear behaviors of Inconel 625 against the 42 CrMo4 stainless steel under flat-on-flat contacts. Inconel 625 is prepared by additive manufacturing (AM) using the electron beam selective melting. Results show that it has a high hardness (335 HV), superior tensile strength (952 MPa) and yield strength (793 MPa). Tribological tests indicate that the AM-Inconel 625 can suppress wear of the surface within a depth of only ~2.4 μm at a contact load of 106 N after 2 × 104 cycles. The excellent wear resistance is attributed to the improved strength and the formation of continuous tribo-layers containing a mixture of Fe2O3, Fe3O4, Cr2O3 and Mn2O3.

Hard-facing welding is one of the repairing methods for increasing hard metal on the agricultural machine part surfaces that caused by the wear mechanism. To this date, the investigation of an optimized welding process parameter that could produce high hardness and wear resistance of the hard-facing layer is still being developed and performed. This paper aims to study the effects of hard-facing welding layer on mechanical properties and microstructure of hard-facing weld metal on JIS-50C carbon steel. The summarized results are as follows: (a) an increase of hard-facing layer affected to increase the hardness of the layer, (b) the hardness of the welds showed a maximum hardness of about 750 HV at a top surface of 3rd welds layers with no-buffering layer and showed the minimum hardness of about 225 HV at a base metal, (c) microstructure investigation showed that the increase of the phase that contained higher chromium, molybdenum and manganese affected the increase of the hardness and the wear resistance of the weld metal, (d) The minimum mass loss of 0.2559 mg/m could be found when a welding current of 100A, non-buffering layer and 3 layers of hard-facing weld metal were applied, and (e) the buffering layer was able to produce a sound weld metal and might not be suited for the hard-facing welding of the medium carbon steel because it produced the dilution effect that deteriorated the mechanical properties of the weld metal.

Duplex Coatings

Tungsten carbide cobalt coating has been extensively used for cutting and mining tools, aerospace, automotive and other wear resistance applications. These coatings not only have superior mechanical properties like high hardness, toughness and compressive strength but have also excellent controllable tribological properties. In this paper a comparison of wear properties and structural phases has been presented to consider for tribological applications. It is found that nanocrystalline duplex coatings have shown much superior properties as compared to the microcrystalline coatings. Evidence of clusters of WC particles was found in microcrystalline coating as compared to homogeneous dense coating structure observed in the nanocrystalline coating. These results are discussed to assess their suitability for super hard wear resistance applications.

Si3N4based ceramics are widely researched because of their low density, high hardness, toughness and wear resistance. Post-sintering heat treatments can enhance their properties. Thus, the objective of the present paper was the development of a Si3N4based ceramic, suitable for structural applications, by sintering in nitrogen gas pressure, using AlN, Al2O3, and Y2O3as additives and post-sintering heat treatment. The green bodies were fabricated by uniaxial pressing at 80 MPa with subsequent isostatic pressing at 300 MPa. The samples were sintered at 1900°C for 1 h under N2gas pressure of 0.1 MPa. Post-sintering heat treatment was performed at 1500°C for 48 h under N2gas pressure of 1.0 MPa. From the results, it was observed that after post-sintering heat treatment there was a reduction of α-SiAlON phase and increase of β-Si3N4phase, with consequent changing in grain size, decrease of fracture toughness and increase of the Vickers hardness.

Amorphous boron carbon nitride (a-BCN) films exhibit excellent properties such as high hardness and high wear resistance. However, the correlation between the film structure and its mechanical properties is not fully understood. In this study, a-BCN films were prepared by an arc-sputtering hybrid process under various coating conditions, and the correlations between the film’s structure and mechanical properties were clarified. Glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy were used to analyze the structural properties and chemical composition. Nanoindentation and ball-on-disc tests were performed to evaluate the hardness and to estimate the friction coefficient and wear volume, respectively. The results indicated that the mechanical properties strongly depend on the carbon content in the film; it decreases significantly when the carbon content is <90%. On the other hand, by controlling the contents of boron and nitrogen to a very small amount (up to 2.5 at.%), it is possible to synthesize a film that has nearly the same hardness and friction coefficient as those of an amorphous carbon (a-C) film and better wear resistance than the a-C film.

The paper presents the results of studies of microstructure, mechanical and physicochemical properties of surface layers produced by laser modification of the diffusion boron layer on Monel® Alloy 400. The diffusion boron layers were produced at 950 °C for 6 h. The gas-contact method was used in an open retort furnace. The process was carried out in a powder mixture containing B4C carbide as a boron source. The next stage was the modification of the boron layer with a diode laser beam of a nominal power of 3 kW. A constant power of 1400 W of the laser beam was used. The scanning speed was variable (successively 5 m/min, 25 m/min, 50 m/min). In order to determine the best parameters, single tracks were created, after which multiple tracks were prepared using previously selected parameters. It was found that both the diffusion borided layer and the laser modified layer had better properties than the substrate material. Both these processes contributed to an increase in corrosion resistance, hardness and wear resistance. It was also found that laser modification caused a slight deterioration of the properties in comparison with the diffusion borided layer. However, the laser modification process resulted in the production of a much thicker layer.

Abstract The effect of argon ion irradiation with an energy of 40 keV in the dose range of 1016 - 1018 ion/cm2 on the formation of the surface layers composition, changes in the morphology and mechanical properties (microhardness, and wear resistance) of carbon steel AISI 1020 with a deposited ion-plasma coating Ni80Cr20 was studied. It is shown that irradiation with doses greater than 1017 ion/cm2 leads to the formation of a layer consisting of nickel, chromium and iron. The most optimal treatment mode for improving wear resistance is irradiation with a dose of 5.1017 ion/cm2.
