“…Large, light grey areas of ferrite grains indicate the ferritic matrix, while perlite grains in the form of black colonies with an irregular morphology indicate cementite as the pearlitic matrix. In a similar study, 39 observed pearlitic, ferritic, and cementite phases for steels of equivalent structure. Ferrite and cementite in the structure were also detected by X-ray diffraction analysis.…”

The poor abrasive wear behavior of agricultural machinery affects the farmers all over the world, rendering their activities more inefficient and negatively affecting their productivity. Therefore, innovation in the manufacture of soil cultivation machinery and the selection of wear-resistant materials has been of great importance. Recently, boron alloys, in particular, have been used in the manufacture of machinery parts that work the soil. The aim of this was to investigate the behavior of the blades of the machines widely used in soil cultivation in agricultural production following a surface treatment technique. For this purpose, the blades made of 30MnB5, a material widely used in the production of cultivator blades, were used as substrate samples in the trials as well as blades of the same substrate coated with Fe28Cr5C1Mn alloy wire via the electric arc spray technique. The morphologies and structures of the uncoated and coated samples were comprehensively analyzed by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry and X-ray diffraction. In addition, their microhardness, porosity, and surface roughness properties were assessed separately before and after plowing. These prepared blades were tested under in the same conditions by plowing the same field at two different soil moisture. Although the weight loss was measured as 9.4 g and 5.4 g in the uncoated and in the coated sample at 9% moisture level, respectively, the weight losses were at 14% humidity level were 10.6 g and 5.9 g in the uncoated and coated samples, respectively. Although the amount of wear increased with increasing humidity levels in both groups, the mass wear loss in cultivator blades coated with Fe25Cr5C1Mn alloy wire was found to be lower in all trials. The results suggest that coating the cultivator blades using electric arc spray would increase agricultural productivity and reduce factors that cause environmental pollution.

“…In the literature, there are descriptions of methods and techniques of increasing wear resistance by friction of tools mainly through the use of ceramic materials [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ], as well as diffusion processes, which may result in the formation of hard and wear-resistant carbides [ 19 ] or borides [ 20 ]. High-energy methods such as thermal spraying [ 21 ] or hardfacing [ 17 , 18 ] are also often used. It is on the methods using high-energy sources that the greatest hopes are currently placed [ 11 , 16 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ].…”

“…Such layers have a composite structure, i.e., they are composed of a metal matrix reinforcing with hard intermetallic phases. The most commonly used matrices involve iron [ 6 , 7 , 17 , 18 , 26 ], nickel [ 13 , 14 , 16 , 25 , 26 , 28 , 36 , 38 , 40 ], cobalt [ 33 ], and alloys containing these elements. These alloys are characterized by good wettability of the reinforcing phase, facilitating adherence of this phase.…”

“…The addition of WC particles is intended primarily to increase the hardness of the coating and its wear resistance. Many publications focused on laser cladding [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] or laser alloying [41] using hard materials for different applications where high microhardness or wear resistance are required, for example, agriculture [16][17][18]. The authors of [6] presented the microstructure, microhardness, and wear properties of Fe-based coatings reinforced with various contents of WC particles produced on H13 hot-working die steel using laser cladding technology.…”

Characterization of W–Cr Metal Matrix Composite Coatings Reinforced with WC Particles Produced on Low-Carbon Steel Using Laser Processing of Precoat

et al. 2020

The paper presents the study results of laser processing of precoat applied on C30 steel. The precoat consisted of powder mixtures with a binder in the form of water glass. Tungsten powder, chromium, and tungsten carbide (WC) were used to produce the precoat. The laser processing was carried out using a Yb:YAG disc laser with a rated power of 1 kW. Constant producing parameters (power of laser beam, 600 W; laser beam scanning rate, 400 mm/min) were applied. Chemical composition of the precoat was a variable parameter in coating production. A mixture consisting of 50% W and 50% Cr as a metal matrix was prepared. Subsequently, WC particles in weight ratios of 25%, 50%, and 75% were added to matrix. As a result, W–Cr metal matrix composite coatings reinforced with WC particles were formed. This study focused on investigation of microstructure, microhardness, phase, and chemical composition as well as corrosion and wear resistance, of the newly formed W–Cr/WC coatings. An instrumented nanoindentation test was also used in this study. As a result of laser beam action, the newly formed coatings had an interesting microstructure and good properties which were improved in comparison to substrate material. It is anticipated that the resulting coatings, depending on the treatment parameters (e.g., W–Cr/WC powder mixture) used, can be successfully applied to metal forming or foundry tools.
