GRADIENT COMPOSITE COATINGS FOR WORKING SURFACES OF BRAKING DEVICES

摘要

In this paper a study to develop a composite wear-resistant coatings for application to the working surface of linings of brake devices, which is based on a rule of a positive gradient of mechanical properties was carried out. These devices and so coatings work in conditions of rapid rise of temperature. Thermal properties of matrix and inclusions should not differ a lot. Otherwise this will cause internal cracking and deterioration of coating. With this purpose we did the analyses of thermal properties of matrix and carbide particles of coating and concluded thet a material with balanced composition based on thermal properties will have the best wear resistance It was created and tested eutectic composites based on alloy steel 12X18H9T based on thermal characteristics of all components. Wear tests indicated the best wear resistance of coating with composition: steel 12X18H9T (matrix) - 75%; fillers TiB2 - 10%, VC - 15%.
