Abstract
The possibility of obtaining of surface layers on low-carbon steel 20 by high-energy methods is shown. The features of structure formation in the surface layers after atmospheric electron-beam deposition of iron-graphite powder mixture and high-frequency current treatment are considered. It is shown that coatings with thickness of 2.6 mm and hardness of up to 8000 MPa are formed during atmospheric electron beam deposition. High-frequency current treatment allows to obtain coatings with thickness from 500 to 1600 μm, which hardness reaches 7000 MPa. Hardness increased is due to the formation of hypoeutectic cast iron structure or hypereutectoid steel during high-energy treatment, depending on the processing modes. It is expected that the increase in surface hardness will positively affect the wear resistance of high-carbon coatings.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
