Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The elevated content of silicon in high-carbon, chromium-manganese alloys increases the wear resistance only if the content of carbon and manganese in them is sufficiently high and the structure is oriented.

  2. 2.

    The introduction of about 4% Si into high-carbon chromium-manganese alloys increases their wear resistance by 60% or doubles it with respect to the most expensive alloy sormite-1
