Effects of carbides on abrasive wear properties and failure behaviours of high speed steels with different alloy element content

Thermomechanical Wear Testing of Metal Matrix Composite Cladding for Potential Application in Hot Rolling Mills

“…Several methods for experimental testing of tribology and wear behavior of potential roll and cladding materials have been used by researchers. The majority of these methods can be roughly classified as 1) pin‐on‐disc or ball‐on‐disc tests, 2) ring‐on‐bock tests with different setups, 3) block‐on‐disc tests with or without addition of abrasive particles, and 4) disc‐on‐disc or roll‐on‐roll tests with two or even three discs or rolls, respectively. Among those test methods, in particular, the roll‐on‐roll tests are suitable to simulate the combined effects of relative motion (slip effects) and high contact pressure between the rolls of the rolling mill and the metal strip.…”

“…In recent decades, numerous experimental studies have been performed to characterize the tribological behavior and the wear resistance of roll materials under thermomechanical loading. In particular, effects of different chemical compositions, thermal treatments, and process parameters during operation of the rolls (e.g., temperature, contact pressure) on both tribology and wear have been investigated . Discussing, the results of these studies would exceed by far the scope of this article; however, the ability of reducing, abrasive wear of these “conventional” iron‐based materials seems to be reaching its limit.…”

Editorial: Advanced Corrosion Wear Resistant Alloys and their Characterization for High-Temperature Applications

“…They originate from the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, and the era of modern industrial revolution (Wei and Xu, 2019). Until now, wear-resistant materials have been widely applied in many fields, including in machinery, metallurgy, electric power, building materials, national defense, railway, coal, chemical industry, and others (Padture et al, 2002;Xu et al, 2017). The development of high-performance wear-and corrosion-resistant materials promotes huge economic and social benefits (Zhang and Chen, 2015;Xu et al, 2017).…”

Repetitive Impact Wear Behaviors of the Tempered 25Cr3Mo2NiWV Fe-Based Steel

“…Therefore, the researches on the effect of heat-treatment on the wear behavior are of importance to engineering. Heat treatment can change the mechanical properties of the steel and thus enhance their wear resistance [10][11][12][13][14]. To study the characteristics and the law of the impact wear failure of the test steel, it is tempered at different temperatures to produce various combinations of hardness and toughness.…”
