Study on the Wear Resistance Performance of the Hot-Rolled BTW1/Q345 Composite Plate under Different Annealing Temperatures

Wear-resistant steel/carbon steel composite plates not only have the double performance advantages of high strength and wear resistance but can also reduce energy consumption and production costs. Based on a 50% reduction rate, the wear resistance of the BTW1/Q345 composite was studied at different annealing temperatures, and the dry friction and wear tests of the BTW1/Q345 composite at different annealing temperatures were carried out using RETC MFT-5000. By using the white-light interference three-dimensional surface profiler, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and backscattered electron diffraction (EBSD) technology, we carried out a detailed analysis of the macroscopic and microscopic morphology and wear mechanism of wear traces at different annealing temperatures. The effects of the annealing process on the thickness and composition of the wear layer were studied, and the causes of wear failure were analyzed based on the results of scanning electron microscopy. It was found that as the annealing temperature gradually increased, the particle size near the scratch of BTW1 in the wear-resistant layer of the composite plate became smaller. On this basis, the effects of different annealing temperatures on the friction and wear characteristics of the composite plate were further studied. At the annealing temperature of 860 ° C, the wear resistance of the material was the best.
