Abstract

The effect of nitrogen, silicon, and aging modes on the structure, resistance to abrasive and adhesive wear, friction factor, and mechanical properties of nitrogen-bearing (0.27–0.83% N) chromium-manganese austenitic steels is studied. It is shown that it is possible to ensure a favorable combination of mechanical and tribological properties in such steels by choosing the appropriate chemical composition and aging mode.
