Abstract

Fe-B-C alloy layers with various microstructures were welded on Q235 steel plates using welding powders/H08Mn2Si and welding wires composite surfacing technology. The relationship existing between the chemical composition, microstructure and wear resistance of the surfacing alloy layers was investigated by scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, electron backscatter diffraction and wear tests. The results demonstrated that the volume fractions and morphologies of the microstructures in the surfacing alloy layers could be controlled by adjusting the boron and carbon contents in the welding powders, which could further regulate the wear resistance of the surfacing alloy layers. The typical microstructures of the Fe-B-C surfacing alloy layers included dendritic Fe, rod-like Fe₂B, fishbone-like Fe₂B and daisy-like Fe₃(C, B). The wear resistance of the alloy layers with various morphologies differed. The wear resistance order of the different microstructures was: rod-like Fe₂B > fishbone-like Fe₂B > daisy-like Fe₃(C, B) > dendritic Fe. A large number of rod-like Fe₂B with high microhardness could be obtained at the boron content of 5.70 ~ 5.90 wt.% and the carbon content of 0.50 ~ 0.60wt.%. The highest wear resistance of the Fe-B-C alloy layers reached the value of 24.1 g⁻¹, which demonstrates the main microscopic cutting wear mechanism of the Fe-B-C alloy layers.
