Wear-resistant titanium carbide-steel materials

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The infiltration of titanium carbide with high-speed steel for 30 min at 1500°C in a hydrogen atmosphere has practically no effect on the grain size of the starting TiC powder. By using fine starting titanium-carbide powders, alloys were obtained containing 52% of fine grains.

  2. 2.

    Additional heat treatment of the resulting alloys for 20 min at 1600°C was found to produce marked grain growth and to accelerate the process of formation of a ring-type structure; such a structure is apparently due to a sharp gradient of steel-component concentration across the section of the carbide grains.

  3. 3.

    Infiltrated alloys with a finer-grain structure exhibit increased hardness and wear resistance.
