Microstructures and properties of non-preheated hardfacing welding

【摘要】 A new type of non-preheated hardfacing electrode was developed using H08A as the core and the coat contents including ferrotitanium, ferrovanadium, graphite, rutile etc. The microstructures and properties of hardfacing metal were systematically researched. The results show the hardness of hardfacing metal increases with increasing of ferrotitanium, ferrovanadium, graphite in the coat, but the crack resistance and processing weldability become worse. The carbides formed by arc metallurgic reaction are uniformly dispersed in the matrix structure. The phases of hardfacing metal consist of α-Fe, γ-Fe, VC, TiC and Fe3C. The carbides are compression aggregation of TiC and VC, and their appearances present irregular block. The matrix microstructure of hardfacing metal is lath martensite. The hardfacing layers with better crack resistance and wearability are achieved and no visible cracks occur when using non-preheated electrode in continuous welding process. Hardness of hardfacing metal is more than 60HRC, and its relative wearability is five times of wearability of D667 electrode in abrasive wear test.更多还原
