Abstract
Abstract In this paper, H13 steel was pre-carburized. Then niobizing and vanadizing layers were prepared by pack cementation method. The high temperature friction and wear properties and hot melt loss properties of different layers and substrates were studied by microhardness tester, metallographic microscope, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer, high temperature friction and wear tester, optical profilometer and Raman spectrometer. The results show that the thickness of the vanadizing layer is 12.7 μm, and the microhardness of the niobizing layer and the vanadizing layer is close, which is about 5 times that of the matrix. The lowest wear rate at 500 °C of the vanadizing layer is 1.03 , which is about 1/6 of the matrix. The vanadizing layer and niobiumizing layer can effectively reduce the friction coefficient, greatly improve the surface hardness and wear resistance of H13 steel, and prolong its service life. The comprehensive performance of vanadizing layer is the best. The vanadizing and niobiumizing treatment can significantly improve hot melt loss resistance of H13 steel and it can be used to prolong the serving life of hot die casting mold for Al.
