Study on Hardness Microstructure Distribution of the Self-lubricating Phase Friction and Wear Property of 1Cr13MoS after Heat Treatment

摘要

1Cr13MoS is a kind of material with excellent corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties. Meanwhile, it also has good self-lubricating properties due to the presence of molybdenum disulfide phase inside the material and can be used as friction pair material in the pump. In this paper, the hardness, microstructure, distribution of the self-lubricating phase, friction and wear properties of 1Cr13MoS after heat treatment were studied. After quenching at 1000 °C and tempering at 520 °C, the hardness of 1Cr13MoS prepared by pyrometallurgy is higher than that of HB 350. The tempering sorbite structure is evenly distributed, and the self-lubricating phase MoS is discretely distributed on the substrate with the average size is about 6 μm, which leads to good friction and wear properties. It is worth noting that the 1Cr13MoS is actually operated as friction pair material on the water pump and has a significant wear improvement effect compared to the conventional 12% chrome steel series.
