Abstract

In this article, the wear resistance of Fe-Cr-B alloy containing different boron concentration after heat treatment at different temperature was studied. ML 10 type abrasive wear test machine was used for processing Fe Cr B spec imens, and its wear resistance was measured based on weight loss. Comprehensive analysis was carried out combined with Rockwell hardness, impact toughness, microstructure in section and other factors. The results showed that wear resistance of Fe-Cr-B alloy changed in the similar way with its variation of hardness, but different from its toughness totally. Under experimental conditions, the specimen whose boron content is 2.0% and quenching temperature is 1000 oC showed minimum weight loss of 3.4 mg, and it has excellent wear resistance.
