Abstract
This study examines the three-body abrasive-wear performance of WC/Fe surface composites subjected to different matrices, including high‑chromium cast iron (HCCI) and cast steel. These findings indicate that a composite zone can be formed between the matrix and WC preforms, accompanied by a substantial precipitation of carbides. A well-bonded semi-coherent interface forms between Fe6W6C and Fe, and the orientation relationship of Fe (110)BCC//Fe6W6C(111) FCC is the NW (Nishiyama Wassermann) orientation relationship. The partial density of states indicates that the highest average layout number of WW bonds at the interface is 0.53, which corresponds to the highest bonding strength at an average bond length of 2.83 Å. Compared with high‑manganese steel (HMS) and high‑carbon steel (HCS) specimens, the HCCI specimen exhibits the lowest weight loss of 0.075 g. Furthermore, its surface roughness is low (3.337 μm), and its wear resistance is 24.09 % and 15.59 % greater than those of the HMS and HCS specimens, respectively.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Refractory Metals and Hard Materials (IJRMHM) publishes original research articles concerned with all aspects of refractory metals and hard materials. Refractory metals are defined as metals with melting points higher than 1800 °C. These are tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, tantalum, niobium, hafnium, and rhenium, as well as many compounds and alloys based thereupon. Hard materials that are included in the scope of this journal are defined as materials with hardness values higher than 1000 kg/mm2, primarily intended for applications as manufacturing tools or wear resistant components in mechanical systems. Thus they encompass carbides, nitrides and borides of metals, and related compounds. A special focus of this journal is put on the family of hardmetals, which is also known as cemented tungsten carbide, and cermets which are based on titanium carbide and carbonitrides with or without a metal binder. Ceramics and superhard materials including diamond and cubic boron nitride may also be accepted provided the subject material is presented as hard materials as defined above.
