Abstract: | Cavitation erosion resistance of structural carbon steel, corrosion resistant chromium steel and technical iron superficially
processed by CO2 laser beam were investigated. Various metallic powders had been alloyed on the surfaces of the samples and then subjected
to cavitation at the rotating disc facility. Tests were carried out in the incubation period of the erosion. It was found
that material of reduced ability to work hardening could not achieve optional resistance to cavitation, regardless of its
hardness. Moreover, strong dependence of the increase in erosion resistance of the alloyed materials on the substrate was
also observed. The best performance under the erosion conditions displayed the samples alloyed with AlNi and SiC or with Nb
powders. In each case mentioned, high increase in surface hardness was achieved due to cavitation loading. |
