Abstract:Conventional aluminising procedures are mostly conducted at temperatures well above 900 °C, and can last for hours. When applied to hot-work tool steels, aluminising has to be done at notably lower temperatures in order to prevent grain growth and carbide formation, and to improve creep resistance.The kinetics of aluminium coating formation on hot-work tool steels was studied in the temperature range of 550–610 °C. The pack Al content was varied from 5–15 wt.-% and aluminising time from 1–9 hours. The halide a… Show more
