Wear Resistance of Austenitic Steel Fe–17Mn–6Si–0.3C with High Silicon and High Manganese

摘要

To solve the problem of poor wear resistance in conventional Hadfield steels under medium and low stress,a new kind of steel with high silicon and high manganese Fe–17Mn–6Si–0.3C was designed and its wear resistance was studied.The results showed that it exhibited better wear resistance than conventional Hadfield steel in both dry friction and abrasive friction.The better wear resistance of the new steel with high silicon and high manganese resulted from the stressinduced γ→ε martensitic transformation.
