Abstract
A discarded/scrap WCP/Fe–C composites roller rings was re-melted in a 50kg medium frequency induction furnace, and a recycled composites was manufactured by centrifugal casting method using the composites re-melts. Dry sliding wear properties of the recycled composites have been investigated using a pin-on-disc wear tester at room temperature under loads of 50, 100 and 150N and sliding speeds of 60 and 80m/s. Results show that the microstructure of the recycled composites consists of un-dissolved WCP and bainite matrix. Wear rate of the recycled composites increases with the increase of load and sliding speed. And the friction coefficient of the recycled composites decreases with the increase of load and sliding speeds. The wear rate of the recycled composites almost is same as the primary composites, and the friction coefficient is obviously higher than that of the primary composites under same test conditions. Finally, the mechanisms of the dry sliding wear for the recycled composites are discussed.
