Abstract

This paper focuses on the effect of two-step austempering on abrasion wear characteristics of the ductile cast iron. The single-step (conventional) and two-step austempering were employed for the samples. There were four treatments. For all samples, austenitization at 900 °C was done. The first treatment comprised of conventional austempering at 400 °C. The second one consisted of conventional austempering at 320 °C. The third one consisted of austempering at 400 °C followed by austempering at 320 °C. The fourth one comprised of austempering at 320 °C followed by austempering at 400 °C. The results showed that samples with two-step austempered at 320 °C followed by 400 °C exhibited enhanced abrasion resistance. The reason for this behavior is discussed considering the microstructure parameters.
