Characterization of friction surfaced martensitic stainless steel (AISI 410) coatings

Abstract

Friction surfacing is a candidate process for depositing corrosion and wear resistant coatings. Being a solid-state process, it offers several advantages over conventional fusion welding based surfacing process. In the current work, martensitic stainless steel AISI 410 was friction surfaced over mild steel substrates. Coating microstructures were characterized using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and Xray diffraction. Coatings in as-deposited condition exhibited a fully martensitic microstructure and were found to be quite hard (with an average hardness of 460 HV). Bend and shear tests indicated excellent coating/substrate bonding. Overall, the current work shows that martensitic stainless steel AISI 410 can be satisfactorily friction surfaced on mild steel.

Dynamic recrystallization in friction surfaced austenitic stainless steel coatings

“…There have been quite a few recent studies on friction surfacing. Most of these investigations deal with optimization of process parameters [2][3][4] and evaluation of coating microstructures and properties [5][6][7]. The thermo-mechanical phenomena involved in the process have been investigated in some detail [8][9][10][11][12] and attempts have also been made to model the process [13,14].…”

“…al [18] presented functional relationships between surface geometry parameters, feed rate, and vibration level in the radial direction of the workpiece. Further research on the FS of martensitic stainless steels was reported by Puli et al [19], with special focus on shear and bend testing. Puli et al [20] also highlighted the deposition of AISI 316L on the mild steel substrate.…”
