The effect of Ti addition on the wear resistance of Nb-containing cast steel

In this study, the dry sliding friction and wear tests of low-carbon microalloyed steel containing Nb and Ti were performed by using MFT-5000 universal friction and wear tester. An analysis was conducted on the effect of Ti on the wear behaviour and mechanism of experimental steel containing Nb. The morphology exhibited by the worn surface and the microstructure of the plastic deformation layer was characterised under scanning electron...
