Popis: WCP/Fe–C composites are manufactured by centrifugal casting method. Dry sliding wear behaviors of the composites containing about 70 vol.% of WCP were investigated at room temperature against 3Cr2W8V die steel counter face. And wear experiments were performed under loads of 50, 100, 150, and 200 N and sliding velocities of 20, 40, 60, and 80 m/s. Results showed that at the low load of 50 N, the composites, under different sliding velocities, all displayed significantly superior wear resistance. Meanwhile the results also showed that the variation of wear weight loss and wear rate of the composites was almost linear with sliding velocity when the sliding velocity and the load were below 60 m/s and 100 N. But as the sliding velocity and the load exceed 60 m/s and 100 N, the weight loss and wear rate of the composites increased rapidly. But the effect of the load applied on wear weight loss and wear rate was larger than that of the sliding velocity. Finally, the mechanism of the dry sliding wear is discussed in the article.
