Abstract
Exploring precise remanufacturing methods for complex parts is of considerable practical significance for extending the service life of components. Herein, in this paper, the thickness of the composite reinforced layer and the microstructure of the polished layer formed in the electron beam polishing process of 45 steel cylinder are predicted by an innovative numerical simulation method. Results indicate that the thickness of the polished layer predicted by numerical simulation and experimental error is about 7 %. The melting zone is comprised of fine equiaxed crystals, slender columnar crystals, slender and fine cellular crystals from the surface to the inside, and the heat-affected zone is mainly composed of lath needle martensite. After polishing, the surface is smooth and the surface roughness is reduced from 7.32 μm to 0.76 μm. Moreover, the microhardness increased from 240 HV0.1 to 714 HV0.1, which is approximately 3 times the hardness of the matrix. The wear volume decreased from 5.52 × 107 μm3 to 3.44 × 107 μm3, and the wear resistance increased by 1.6 times. Under the effect of refined grain strengthening, the comprehensive mechanical properties of the polishing layer are significantly improved.
期刊介绍:
Surface and Coatings Technology is an international archival journal publishing scientific papers on significant developments in surface and interface engineering to modify and improve the surface properties of materials for protection in demanding contact conditions or aggressive environments, or for enhanced functional performance. Contributions range from original scientific articles concerned with fundamental and applied aspects of research or direct applications of metallic, inorganic, organic and composite coatings, to invited reviews of current technology in specific areas. Papers submitted to this journal are expected to be in line with the following aspects in processes, and properties/performance:
A. Processes: Physical and chemical vapour deposition techniques, thermal and plasma spraying, surface modification by directed energy techniques such as ion, electron and laser beams, thermo-chemical treatment, wet chemical and electrochemical processes such as plating, sol-gel coating, anodization, plasma electrolytic oxidation, etc., but excluding painting.
B. Properties/performance: friction performance, wear resistance (e.g., abrasion, erosion, fretting, etc), corrosion and oxidation resistance, thermal protection, diffusion resistance, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, and properties relevant to smart materials behaviour and enhanced multifunctional performance for environmental, energy and medical applications, but excluding device aspects.
