Effect of Heat Treatment on Wear Behavior of High Chromium White Cast Iron
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Varahram, Nasser (Supervisor)
Abstract
It is well known that all crusher tools, which are exposed to wear, must be resistant to both wear and dynamic tensions that can result in catastrophic failures. Tools exposed to heavy tensions should have two opposing properties, which are wear resistivity and toughness. To achieve the best wear resistivity in crusher tools, it is better to have martensitic matrix. During the cooling process, transformation of austenite to perlite occurs and presence of perlite adjacent to carbides extremely reduces the wear resistivity of the work piece. Although because of high solvability of carbon into austenite, stability of austenite in room temperature is possible. Under wear circumstances and...
