This paper concentrates on studying the effect of carbon on performance properties of 150KhNM roll steel grade. The introduction contains a brief literature review on the effect of the roll alloy chemistry on performance and mechanical properties of mill rolls. Besides, it demonstrates the relevance of the presented studies. The paper describes the effect of chemical elements, such as manganese, niobium, vanadium, nickel on the microstructure and mechanical properties of mill rolls. It also classifies alloying elements by their effect on polymorphic transformation temperatures and shows carbide-forming elements increasing such property. We also considered the effect of the carbide phase on hypereutectoid steel. The paper contains carbide compounds that may be formed in steels, and their classification. It describes the mechanism of the effect of the carbide phase on performance properties of steel castings. The second part of the paper presents a research procedure and briefly describes materials used for the research and laboratory and analytical equipment. The third part of the paper presents the research results. It describes the effect of carbon in a broad range on service durability of hypereutectoid roll steel in conditions of wear at room and elevated (400 ºС) temperatures. Besides, we determined the effect of carbon on the roll alloy microstructure and analyzed relations between the microstructure and performance properties of hypereutectoid roll steel. The conclusion of the paper summarizes the results and contains the references used for an analytical review. |
