Conclusions
-
1.
The wear resistance is highest for alloys with both chromium and titanium. The optimal amount of carbon depends on the titanium content. It should be above stoichiometric.
-
2.
The wear resistance of high-carbon Cr−Ti alloys depends on the structural condition of the matrix and the total quantity and type of the carbide phase.
-
3.
The abrasive wear resistance is highest for alloys U20Kh6T4M and U25Kh6T4M with a structure of austenite-carbide or austenite-martensite-carbide, with at least 30% retained austenite. The best results are obtained when the carbide phase is the strong and hard TiC, in combination with carbides M7C3 and M23C6.
