On Development and Wear Behavior of Microwave-Processed Functionally Graded Ni-SiC Clads on SS-304 Substrate
Source abstract
Abstract
In this study, the functionally graded Ni-SiC claddings with gradual change in SiC contents were deposited on SS-304 substrate using microwave hybrid heating technique. Experimental trials were carried out inside a multimode domestic microwave device at 2.45 GHz and 900 W. The optimal exposure time of 900 W microwave power was varied with compositional gradient, and it was from 300 to 360 s. The developed functionally graded clad (FGC) was characterized by SEM/EDS, XRD and Vicker’s micro-hardness. Microstructural analysis results revealed that the FGC of approximately 2 mm thickness was developed and was free from any type of interfacial cracks and visible porosity. The maximum micro-hardness was at the top FGC layer, and its value was 1025 ± 30 HV. Three types of single-layer claddings were also developed to compare the tribological behavior of FGC. FGC exhibited 32 and 1.2 times more wear resistance than SS-304 substrate and Ni + 30% SiC layer, respectively. In the case of FGC, wear mainly occurs due to debonding of carbide particles from the matrix, while plastic deformation and strong abrasion are responsible for material loss in the case of the SS-304 substrate.
