THE STRUCTURE AND COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION OF WELDED NICKEL ALLOYS INCONEL 625 AND INCONEL 718

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2018, Vol 281, Issue 5

Abstract

In this study, the coefficients of friction for three series of welded nickel alloy joints, subjected to different heat treatments (lack of heat treatment, solution heat treatment, precipitation hardening), were determined. Heat treatment of the prepared samples was aimed at eliminating the structural and stress gradient, because the electron beam welding technique is dedicated for constructions with very high quality and strength requirements. Given the nature of the electron beam process, the authors are aware that the obtained weld’s structures are characterized by different properties from parent materials, and also from structures melted under equilibrium conditions. The scientific aim of the presented work is to determine the influence of heat treatment on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and performance of dissimilar joints of nickel alloys Inconel 625 and Inconel 718. In order to determine the coefficient of friction for samples, the scratch test method was used. As a result of the research, it was proved that subjecting the welds to the precipitation hardening has a significant effect on abrasion resistance.<br/><br/>
