Effect of Rare Earths and Vanadium on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of High Chromium Cast Iron

Article Preview

Abstract:

Effect of RE and V on microstructure and mechanical properties of high chromium cast iron were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, impact test and wear test. The results show that proper modification using RE combined with V makes the alloy present a more refined and homogenous austenite matrix, and makes the morphology of carbide changing from thick lath to thin lath, and rosette-like. Modification can also increase hardness, wear resistance and impact toughness of high chromium cast iron.
