Abstract

With an increase in the addition of W, the morphology and volume percentage of Fe₂B show no obvious variation. Although an increase in the hardness of the alloy has a beneficial effect on improving wear resistance, toughening Fe₂B by the addition of W has a more helpful role in the wear resistance of Fe–B–C alloy in this study. The weight loss of Fe–B–C alloy with the addition of 2.04 wt.% W can be decreased by more than 47 % of that of the alloy without added W.

Keywords: Fe–B–C alloy; Tungsten addition; Toughening Fe2B; Wear resistance
