Abstract
In this work, the resistance against nanoindentation of the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) CuCrZr alloy specimen was studied at the ramp load of 2000–3000 μN on 100 points. It was found that the triangular shape indentation cavity and the pile-up material increased along the diagonal direction. The LPBF CuCrZr alloy contained few partly melted LPBF particles which have three different structures namely columnar, cellular and equiaxed. The nanowear test was conducted on the above three structures. The tribological property of partly melted LPBF particles was analyzed at 2000 μN cyclic load. The wear depth in the partly melted LPBF particles at the columnar structure for cycle-1, cycle-2 and cycle-3 were 836 nm, 918 nm and 980 nm, respectively. The wear depth in the partly melted LPBF particles at the cellular structure for cycle-1, cycle-2 and cycle-3 were 650 nm, 780 nm and 810 nm, respectively. The wear depth in the partly melted LPBF particles at the equiaxed structure for cycle-1, cycle-2 and cycle-3 were 650 nm, 720 nm and 780 nm, respectively. The obtained outcomes were correlated with the tribological behavior of non-defective part. The non-defective part exhibited higher wear resistance than the partly melted LPBF particles. The percentage increase in wear resistance at the columnar non-defective part over partly melted LPBF particles for cycle-1, cycle-2 and cycle-3 were 22.24 %, 20.5 % and 20.4 %, respectively. Similarly, the cellular and equiaxed non-defective parts have higher wear resistance when compared to the partly melted LPBF particles. Moreover, the decrease in Coefficient of friction was observed from one cycle to the next cycle both in the partly melted LPBF particles and non-defective part in all three structures.
期刊介绍:
Materials Characterization features original articles and state-of-the-art reviews on theoretical and practical aspects of the structure and behaviour of materials.
The Journal focuses on all characterization techniques, including all forms of microscopy (light, electron, acoustic, etc.,) and analysis (especially microanalysis and surface analytical techniques). Developments in both this wide range of techniques and their application to the quantification of the microstructure of materials are essential facets of the Journal.
The Journal provides the Materials Scientist/Engineer with up-to-date information on many types of materials with an underlying theme of explaining the behavior of materials using novel approaches. Materials covered by the journal include:
Metals & Alloys
Ceramics
Nanomaterials
Biomedical materials
Optical materials
Composites
Natural Materials.
