Abstract

Experimental results indicate that the volume fraction of the carbide phase, carbide size and distribution had an important influence on the wear resistance of Fe-CrC-V alloys under low-stress abrasion conditions. Besides, the martensitic or martensiteaustenitic matrix microstructure more adequately reinforced the M7C3 eutectic carbides, minimizing cracking and removal during wear, than did the austenitic matrix. The secondary carbides which precipitate in the matrix regions of high chromium iron also influence the abrasion behaviour. The results of fracture toughness tests show that the dynamic fracture toughness in Fe-Cr-C-V white cast irons is determined mainly by the properties of the matrix. The high chromium iron containing 1.19 wt.% V in the as-cast condition, showed the greater dynamic fracture toughness when compared to other experimental alloys. The higher fracture toughness was attributed to strengthening during fracture, since very fine secondary carbide particles were present mainly in an austenitic matrix. In heat treated Fe-Cr-C-V alloys with varying contents of vanadium, lower Kid values were obtained, compared with as-cast alloys.
