Principles for Developing Grinding Media with Increased Wear Resistance. Part 1. Abrasive Wear Resistance of Iron-Based Alloys

摘要

Laboratory tests of iron-based alloys for abrasive wear show that the best wear resistance of the alloys with both the martensite and austenite metallic matrix is achieved in the iron - carbon system The greater the content of alloying elements in the austenite, the more pronounced is the reduction of its wear resistance due to alloying. It is revealed that the content of the alloying elements in the wear-resistant alloys for grinding media must be as low as possible, but yet sufficient to ensure the required manufacturability of articles.
