Abstract

This work aims to investigate the effect of hot forging on wear characteristics of Fe-22Al-1.0C intermetallic quaternary alloyed with Zr/Ti (5.0 wt.%) produced by arc melting. The samples were subjected to multidirectional hot forging at 1150 °C at a strain rate of 0.1 s⁻¹. Hardness, elastic modulus, and compressive strength showed an improvement in hardness and compressive strength of hot-forged samples. A dry sliding wear test was performed using a ball-on-disk at a load of 10 N, with the sliding distance of 252 m at 0.21 m s⁻¹. The microstructural studies reveal that forged samples have more uniform distribution of fine particles with dense dislocation network compared to the as-cast. This attributed to improvement in hardness, elastic modulus, and compressive strength of forged samples. A substantial decrease in the wear rate and friction coefficient was observed in the forged sample as compared to as-cast. Microstructural observations of worn surfaces reveal that the surface exhibited plastic deformation, delamination, microplowing, and wear debris along the sliding direction.
