Abstract
The paper discusses the results of research on the structure and tribological properties of hybrid layers produced on the surface of medium-carbon steel in hybrid treatment, combining gas carburizing process with the next treatment, i.e. diffusion chromizing and PVD treatment. A comparison was made of the structure and tribological properties of the layers obtained as a result of hybrid treatment with the layers produced in a single diffusion chromizing process. The studies of the layers concerned their structure, chemical composition, thickness, and hardness. Linear wear of the layers were performed by means of three-cylinder-cone method. It has been shown that the linear wear of samples with hybrid layers, produced on medium carbon steel, is less than 50% of samples with single carbide layers. This indicates very good anti-wear properties of hybrid layers.
