This paper describes the effects of combination of electromechanical and ultrasonic treatment on the wear and corrosion behavior of carbon steel AISI 1045. It is shown that the wear resistance of carbon steel AISI 1045 can be improved considerably by hardening the surface. Furthermore, the experimental work indicates that the corrosion rate of the surface decreased because of the combination of the treatments.

This paper studies coatings obtained by laser cladding of M2 powder material (Hoganas, Belgium) on a new B1500 medium-carbon steel. The analysis of defects (pores, cracks), microstructure, phase composition, microhardness of the deposited coatings depending on heat input of laser radiation was performed. The results of tests for wear resistance of coating samples, which allow selecting the optimal modes of laser deposition, are presented.

Abstract The possibility of cathodic plasma electrolytic boriding of medium-carbon steel in an aqueous solution of ammonium chloride and boric acid followed by anodic plasma electrolytic polishing in an ammonium sulfate solution on the same equipment with a change in the operating voltage is shown. The morphology and roughness of the surface, microhardness of the modified layer have been investigated. Wear resistance was studied under dry friction conditions. It has been established that cathodic boriding at 850 °C for 5–30 min leads to the hardening of the surface layer up to 1050 HV with an increase in roughness by 1.5–2.5 times and wear resistance by 3.5 times. Subsequent anodic plasma electrolytic polishing of the boriding surface leads to a decrease in roughness with an increase in wear resistance by 2.3 times.

Fabrication with the in-situ formation of W2C reinforced medium carbon steel (MCS) MMC’s was attempted using W or WO3 and graphite addition to steel. The P/M route comprising milling, compaction and sintering at 1050 °C and 1120 °C respectively in 90% N2 + 10% H2 atmosphere was adopted. Both SEM and BET studies revealed the particle size to be around 100, 7 and 40 µm for MCS, W and WO3, respectively. A complete conversion of tungsten into tungsten semicarbide (W2C) was noted in XRD for the tungsten additions of ∼6, 9 and 12 wt.% with stoichiometrically balanced C (graphite) addition of 0, 0.2 and 0.4 wt.%. However, WO3 + C addition (balanced as above) revealed the partial conversion of WO3 to W2C. The peaks of Fe3C were observed only for MCS + W + C samples and not for MCS + WO3 + C samples in XRD. In SEM, the WO3 phase appeared porous and partially converted, whereas, W2C phase was dense. Sintered density improved for the addition of W, whereas it monotonically reduced for WO3 addition to MCS + C samples. Higher hardness, compressive strength, and wear resistance was noted for W addition than WO3 to MCS+C samples.

In this work, the investigations were carried out to study the effect of heat treatment at dual phase of austenite and ferrite on mechanical properties , microstructure and corrosion rate of low alloyed medium carbon steel. The specimens were divided into five groups, first group, specimens were heated to the duel phase region at temperature of 740°C soaked for 30 minutes and quenched in water. The second group, The specimens were heated to 740°C soaked for 30 minutes and quenched in water, then tempered to 480°C soaked for 20 minutes. The third group the specimens were heated to austenizing temperature of 840°C soaked for 30 minutes and quenched in water, then the specimens reheated to the dual phase region at 740°C, soaked for 30 minutes and quenched in water, then the specimens were tempered at temperature 480°C for 30 minutes. The forth group, the specimens were heated to austenizing temperature of 840°C soaked for 30 minutes and quenched in water, this process were repeated again before the specimens were thereafter heated to the dual phase region at temperature of 740°C, soaked for 20 minutes and quenched in water, then the specimens were tempered at temperature 480°C for 20 minutes. The fifth group, the specimens were heated to austenizing temperature of 840°C soaked for 20 minutes and quenched in water, this process were repeated two times again before the specimens were thereafter heated to the dual phase region at temperature of 740°C, soaked for 20 minutes and quenched in water, then the specimens finally tempered at temperature 480°C for 20 minutes. The results proved the hardness increase after heat treatment at first and second group, at third group the highest hardness value was due to formation of martensite and ferrite, but at fourth and fifth groups hardness decreases due to appearance of carbides particles, also corrosion rate usually increases with two phase at microstructure than stable one phase, third group have less corrosion rate than fourth and fifth due to carbides particles formation which lead to more corrosion rate due to three phases presents.
