Effect of Carbon on Microstructure and Wear Resistance of Fe-Mo-Si-C Steels Prepared by Powder Metallurgy
Abstract
Sintered Fe-Mo-Si-C steel was prepared from pre-alloyed Fe-Mo powder that was mixed with 4wt.% silicon carbide (SiC) and 0.3wt.% graphite. The powder mixture was compacted, sintered at 1250oC for 45 min and slowly cooled in a vacuum furnace. Microstructures were observed by OM and SEM. Hardness, tensile and wear properties were tested. From the experimental results, the sintered Fe-Mo-Si-C steel without graphite addition consisted of spherical particles in a matrix of ferrite, pearlite and bainite structures. With graphite addition, the feature of spherical particles was changed to vermicular shape, and the pearlite and bainite structures were increased. Tensile strength and hardness increased, but wear resistance decreased.Keywords : Fe-Mo-Si-C alloy, microstructure, sintering, mechanical propertyReferences
