Abrasive Wear Behavior of Cryogenically Treated Boron Steel (30MnCrB4) Used for Rotavator Blades

Abstract: Rotavator blades are prone to significant wear because of the abrasive nature of sand particles. The aim of this research work is to investigate the effect of cryogenic treatment and post tempering on abrasive wear behavior, in the presence of angular quartz sand (grain size of 212–425 μm), of rotavator blade material of boron steel (30MnCrB4). Cryogenic treatment has caused an improvement in the abrasive wear resistance and microhardness of 30MnCrB4 by 60% and 260.73%, respectively, compared to untreated mate… Show more

“…This effect results from sharp-edge abrasive particles, which penetrated deep into the investigated surface. The effect of penetration is a larger amount of material removal from specimens, which initiated the grooving mechanism [44]. In contrast to the wear mechanism for Hardox 450 steel (grooving), the rolling mechanism was predominant in investigated coatings.…”

“…The length of those cracks was much higher. It was stated in the literature [44] that the presence of the cracks influencesa lower abrasive wear resistance of performed coatings. The exemplary results of metallographic microscopic tests are presented in Figure 9.…”

“…Another study about the effect of deep cryogenic treatment which was published by Özer, concluded that there is no significant difference between conventionally heat-treated and deep cryo treated samples [22]. Singh et al performed five different thermal treatment procedures to 30MnCrB4 steel [23]. The first one conventionally heat-treated, the second one conventionally heat-treated and deep cryo treated at 185 °C for 12 h and the last three group of samples were subjected to conventionally heat treated, deep cryo treated and tempered at 200 °C, 250 °C and 300°C for 1 h, respectively.…”

“…At 2000× magnification along with dimple structure, flat regions were observed suggesting mixed mode of fracture (Figure 14c). [25] stated that tempered post cryogenic treatment of boron steel on post tempering resulted in grain coarsening and martensite decomposition with bubble and dimples coalescence along the grain boundaries. The fracture surfaces exhibited a mixed morphology with micro voids and elongated dimples which are characteristic representation of ductile fracture.…”
