摘要: 以K444合金为对象,使用Si3N4球为对磨件,研究热处理K444合金在宽温域(RT-800 ℃)环境下的摩擦学性能及磨损机制.结果表明:热处理过程中诱发γ′-强化相溶解及η相析出,使材料硬度自铸态的41.8 HRC提升至时效态的45.4 HRC.在室温到600 ℃条件下,K444合金磨损率均保持在较低的水平,为10-6 mm3·m-1·N-1数量级.合金经过固溶时效处理后,其磨损率明显降低,这归因于γ′强化相发生回溶并在冷却过程中弥散析出,同时析出均匀细小的η相,明显提高合金耐磨性.微观表征证实摩擦过程中原位生成的Cr2O3致密氧化膜是改善耐磨性的核心机制.当温度升高至800 ℃时,K444合金摩擦学性能出现明显恶化,铸态及热处理后的合金磨损率均上升到10-5 mm3·m-1·N-1数量级,氧化层动态平衡失效导致氧化磨损机制占优.

Abstract: The tribological properties and wear mechanisms of K444 alloy after heat treatment were investigated using Si3N4 balls as the counterface material over a wide temperature range (RT-800 ℃). The research results showed that the heat treatment process induces the dissolution of the γ′-strengthening phase and the precipitation of the η phase, increasing the hardness of the material from 41.8 HRC in the as-cast state to 45.4 HRC in the aged state. From room temperature to 600 ℃, the wear rate of K444 alloy remains at a low level, on the order of 10-6 mm3·m-1 ·N-1 . After solution aging treatment, the wear rate of the alloy is significantly reduced, which is attributed to the re-solution of the γ' strengthening phase and the precipitation of fine and uniform η phase during cooling, significantly improving the wear resistance of the alloy. Microscopic characterization confirms that the in-situ formed dense Cr2O3 oxide film during friction is the core mechanism for improving wear resistance. When the temperature rises to 800 ℃, the tribological properties of K444 alloy deteriorate significantly, and thewear rates of both the as-cast and heat-treated alloys increase to the order of 10-5 mm3·m-1·N-1, with the oxidation wear mechanism becoming dominant due to the failure of the dynamic balance of the oxide layer.
