Abstract
Welded joints of wear-resistant steel often experience wear problems due to a lack of strengthening particles. This study investigates the wear behavior of welded joints produced by laser-arc hybrid welding (LAHW) on wear-resistant steel with low strength (WRL) and high strength (WRH). The microstructure, wear rate, wear track morphology, and profile were analyzed. The experimental results indicate that the microstructures of the fusion zone (FZ), coarse-grain heat-affected zone (CGHAZ), fine-grain heat-affected zone (FGHAZ), and intercritical heat-affected zone (ICHAZ) in both similar and dissimilar welded joints consist of martensite, coarsening martensite, martensite + ferrite, and martensite + ferrite + bainite, respectively, regardless of WRL and WRH. The wear resistance of the FZ was weaker than those of both WRL and WRH. The wear direction, namely parallel or perpendicular to the welded seams, affects the wear behavior. The cross-sectional areas of the wear tracks in both similar and dissimilar welded joints showed minimal changes in the HAZ and FZ. The wear mechanisms in the different HAZs varied due to microstructural differences.
期刊介绍:
Wear journal is dedicated to the advancement of basic and applied knowledge concerning the nature of wear of materials. Broadly, topics of interest range from development of fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of wear to innovative solutions to practical engineering problems. Authors of experimental studies are expected to comment on the repeatability of the data, and whenever possible, conduct multiple measurements under similar testing conditions. Further, Wear embraces the highest standards of professional ethics, and the detection of matching content, either in written or graphical form, from other publications by the current authors or by others, may result in rejection.
