Effect of Refractory Elements on Wear Intensity of the Surface Layers in the Abrasive Soil Mass

Journal Title: Tribology in Industry - Year 2013, Vol 35, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper presents the results of researches on tthe influence of vanadium and niobium on wear intensity of the surface layers in soil mass. The investigations were conducted in the laboratory conditions on a wearing machine MZWM -1. The study adopted two types of surface layers obtained by welding with additon of niobium and vanadium. The resulting layers were tested in three kinds of soil masses: loamy sand, ligh clay and ordinary clay. Significant differences in the wear between the layers, depending on the type of soil were observed.
