Abstract
Extremely valuable mechanical properties in combination with acceptable wear resistance can make nanostructural bainitic steels to be used extensively in different engineering and tribological applications. However, it is critical to characterize the contributed factors to investigate the wear response of these high-strength materials. This work aims to study the wear behavior of two nanostructural bainitic steels with different amount of austenite stabilizer elements Mn and Ni. For this purpose, wear resistances of the materials were evaluated using the pin-on-disk method. The results indicated that the hardness of the sample is a critical factor affecting the tribological behavior, and the volume fraction and morphology of high-carbon retained austenite are also of considerable importance. It has also been demonstrated that transformation-induced plasticity effect during the wear test and oxide formation at worn surfaces are critical factors.
