Abstract:Vanadis 8 steel is a tool steel manufactured by powder metallurgic processing. Its main alloy elements are V, Cr and Mo. By implementing an experimental design with five factors—all of them are related to the thermal processing of this steel and with ionic nitriding—the effects of said factors on adhesive wear resistance and corrosion resistance were studied. For this purpose, Pin-on-Disc wear tests and lineal polarization resistance tests were carried out using an aqueous solution with 3.5% NaCl by weight. Th… Show more
