Abstract

Structural phase states and tribological properties of the coating surfaced onto Hardox 450 martensite low-carbon steel with powder wire Fe-C-Cr-Nb-W and modified by subsequent electron-beam processing are studied by methods of modern physical material science. It is shown that irradiation of ∼ 5 mm thick surfaced layer with high intensity pulsed electron beams results in the formation of ∼ 20 μm thick surface layer with the master phases of α-Fe and NbC, Fe3C and M6C(Fe3W3C) carbides. It is established that wear resistance of the surfaced layer after electron-beam processing increases more than 70-fold relative to wear resistance of Hardox 450 steel and friction coefficient decreases significantly (∼3-fold).
