STAINLESS STEELS FOR WEAR-RESISTING APPLICATIONS.

Ziel

WEAR PROBLEMS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DOWNTIME AND MAJOR LOSS OF PRODUCTION IN THE COAL, STEEL AND POWER GENERATION INDUSTRIES. WEAR, THEREFORE, REPRESENTS A SIGNIFICANT PRODUCTION COST AND THERE IS A FINANCIAL INCENTIVE TO IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS IN CHUTES, BUNKERS AND HOPPERS.
THIS IS PARTICULARLY THE CASE IN SITUATIONS WHERE THE MATERIALS BEING HANDLED ARE CORROSIVE AND DEMAND THE USE OF EXPENSIVE STAINLESS STEELS OR CORROSION RESISTING MATERIALS. WHEREAS DETAILED INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE ON THE CORROSION PERFORMANCE OF THESE MATERIALS, THERE ARE LITTLE DATA ON THEIR WEAR BEHAVIOUR AND MECHANISMS OF DEGRADATION.

THE PURPOSE OF THIS INVESTIGATION IS TO EMPLOY THE ABRASIVE AND EROSIVE WEAR TECHNIQUES THAT WERE DEVELOPED UNDER A PREVIOUS ECSC SUPPORTED PROJECT - 7210-TA/801 "ABRASION, EROSION AND WEAR RESISTANT STEELS FOR IMPROVED RELIABILITY AND PERFORMANCE OF PLANT AND EQUIPMENT" (SEE CS8/71) - FOR THE EVALUATION OF A RANGE OF STAINLESS STEELS IN THE WROUGHT, CAST AND WELD DEPOSITED CONDITION. THIS WILL ENABLE THE MOST COST EFFECTIVE MATERIALS THAT ARE AVAILABLE CURRENTLY TO BE IDENTIFIED. THE CORRELATION OF WEAR BEHAVIOUR WITH OTHER MATERIAL PROPERTIES AND STUDIES OF THE MECHANISMS OF DEGRADATION WILL PROVIDE A SOUND BASIS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF IMPROVED PERFORMANCE.
