Abrasive Wear Of Intermetallics
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2011
Abstract
The U.S. Bureau of Mines is investigating the wear behavior of a variety of advanced materials. Among the many materials under evaluation are intermetallic alloys based on the compounds: Fe3Al, Ti3Al, TiAl, Al3Ti, NiAl and MoSi2. The high hardness, high modulus, low density, and superior environmental stability of these compounds make them attractive for wear materials. This paper reports on the abrasive wear of alloys and composites based on the above compounds. The abrasive wear behavior of these alloys and composites are compared to other engineering materials used in wear applications.
