Wear Behavior of Austempered Ductile Iron with Nanosized Additives
Journal Title: Tribology in Industry - Year 2014, Vol 36, Issue 1
Abstract
The microstructure and properties of austempered ductile iron (ADI) strengthened with nanosized addtives of titanium nitride + titanium carbonitride (TiN + TiCN), titanium nitride TiN and cubic boron nitride cBN are investigated. The TiN, TiCN and cBN, nanosized particles are coated by electroless nickel coating EFTTOM-NICKEL prior to the edition to the melt. The spheroidal graphite iron samples are undergoing an austempering, including heating at 900 оС for an hour, after that isothermal retention at 280 оС, 2 h and 380 оС, 2h. The metallographic analysis by optical metallographic microscope GX41 OLIMPUS and hardness measurements by Vickers Method are performed. The structure of the austempered ductile iron consists of lower bainite and upper bainite.Experimental investigation of the wear by fixed abrasive are also carried out. The influence of the nanosized additives on the microstructure, mechanical and tribological properties of the austempered ductile irons (ADI) is studied.
