Change Regulation of Hardness of Target around Crater Penetrated by W_f/Zr-Based Amorphous Matrix Composite Projectile

Abstract

Because of excellent mechanical, physical and chemical property Wf/Zr-based amorphous matrix composite attracts people’s interest and becomes the hot spot of science study and engineering application. In this paper, change regulation of hardness of target around crater by Wf/Zr-based amorphous matrix composite projectile and its mechanism are studied after firing test, and it is found that the section can be divided into 3 layers: the Martensite layer, the deformed fine grain layer and the normal matrix from the crater surface to the interior of the steel target and that the thickness of Martensite layer increases first and then decreases in the penetration direction when the velocity of projectile is 1200m/s.
