Abstract

Friction tests of diffusion boride coatings were performed by rod-plate and rod-sleeve techniques at loads of 147-1960 N. It was shown that the Fe2B layer can demonstrate plastic deformation under the conditions. In the case of M11 (AISI) alloyed steel, diffusion boriding results in the extremely favorable hierarchical self-organization of defensive coatings and high wear resistance. The alloying of iron borides by chromium contributes to an increase in plasticity in these phases and a decrease in the coefficient of friction. The influence of the nature of the substrate and quenching treatment on the surface-relief characteristics before and after tribological tests, as well as on linear wear, has been determined.
