Microstructural effects in abrasive wear. Quarterly progress report, December 1980-1 June 1981. [Alloys for use in coal mining, handling, and gasification]
This report describes research aimed at establishing quantitative relationships between microstructure and wear resistance of highly alloyed materials, including high-Cr white irons and experimental Co-base and Ni-base powder metallurgy (PM) alloys now used or potentially to be used in coal mining, handling, and gasification. The specific types of wear under study are low-stress abrasion and gouging wear encountered in mining, coal conversion, and transfer applications. During this period, work was concentrated on analysis of results. The many detailed observations obtained in the work on scratch test simulations of abrasive wear mechanisms have been summarized in drafts of three papers. The first, A Study of Abrasive Wear Mechanisms Using Diamond and Alumina Scratch Tests, is included as an appendix to this report and is being submitted for publication. Revision of the other papers is in progress.
