Surface Hardening of Some Cast Irons with Inserted Hard Alloy Particles

The Effect of Carbides Morphology on Tribological Behaviour of Ni-Hard 4 Cast Irons

In this research the effect of volume and morphology of eutectic carbides on tribological behaviour of Ni-Hard 4 cast irons have been investigated. Therefore, as a result of the fact that the carbon content effects the carbides morphology of Ni-hard cast irons, the chemical compositions of five different specimens were kept constant with the exception of the carbon content, which was varied fro...

INFLUENCE OF LASER SURFACE HARDENING ON CORROSION PROPERTIES OF Al-Zn-Si CAST ALLOY

E. Tillová, L. Kuchariková, M. Chalupová, J. Belan, A. Vaško, I. Švecová, University of Žilina, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Slovak Republic This work is focused on the effect of the laser surface treatment (laser power 50 and 80 W) on microstructure and corrosion properties of self-hardened AlZn10Si8Mg cast alloy used for engine and vehicle constructions. The electrochemical impedance sp...

SURFACE HARDENING OF TUNGSTEN-BASED HEAVY ALLOY VIA PACK BORONIZING

The boronizing of a tungsten heavy alloy containing Ni and Fe as the major alloying elements were performed in the present study to increase its surface hardening. Pack cementation method was employed as a well-known, successful solid-state process for boronizing. The coating treatment was accomplished at different temperatures of 1000, 1050 and 1100°C for 6 and 9 hours. The formation of tu...
