Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of welding materials for material processing, and particularly to a flux-cored wire for wear-resistant surfacing of mechanical components. Background Art
[0002] Among the main failure forms of mechanical parts, wear failure accounts for 60 - 80%. Equipment failure or material damage caused by wear every year is also one of the problems that cause the most economic losses, greatly affecting the service life of construction machinery. Therefore, surface modification of materials, improving the wear resistance of materials, and extending their service life are of great significance for improving economic benefits.
[0003] As an economical and rapid process method for material surface modification, surfacing is increasingly widely used in the additive manufacturing and repair of parts in various industrial sectors. A flux-cored wire refers to a wire with a metal shell on the outside and various medicaments and alloy powders filled inside. These fillers melt during the welding process and form the required alloy components and chemical reactions in the weld. Compared with solid wires, flux-cored wires have the advantages of high welding efficiency, fast cladding speed, easy adjustment of composition, and strong welding adaptability. In recent years, flux-cored wires have become the preferred welding materials for wear-resistant surfacing.
[0004] It can be obtained from the reports of Chinese patent document numbers (CN 109175780 B and CN 104289826 B) that the currently commonly used wear-resistant surfacing flux-cored wires are mainly flux-cored wires based on high-chromium and high-boron iron-based alloys. By controlling the contents of chromium and boron elements, primary M7C3 and Fe2B-type hard phases are formed in the structure to improve the hardness and wear resistance of the cladding layer. Both primary M7C3 and eutectic Fe2B-type hard phases have high microhardness values, so they play an important role in improving the wear resistance of the alloy. However, due to the large brittleness and large particle size of these two hard phases, the toughness of the alloy is insufficient, increasing the crack tendency during the surfacing process, and may cause the surfacing layer to detach during long-term wear. In order to avoid the detachment caused by the cracking of the surfacing alloy, V and Nb elements are used to replace Cr elements to avoid the formation of coarse M7C3 in the structure, adjust the Mo / B ratio to promote the in-situ eutectic reaction, and at the same time, the combined action of multi-element microalloy strengthening such as Ni, Mn, and Si is used to further improve the impact resistance of the wear-resistant belt surfacing alloy while ensuring the wear resistance of the alloy.
[0005] Therefore, the technical personnel in this field are committed to developing a high wear-resistant and impact-resistant iron-based surfacing flux-cored wire. By adjusting the contents of alloy elements in the flux powder and using the surfacing process, a high wear-resistant and impact-resistant iron-based cladding layer is prepared to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and meet the requirements of construction machinery for high wear resistance and impact resistance. Summary of the Invention

[0010] Preferably, the high wear-resistant and impact-resistant surfacing flux-cored wire is characterized in that the mass percentage content of the flux powder components is as follows: ferrosilicon 1.6-2.3%, ferromanganese 0.8-1.5%, ferrovanadium 10-15%, ferroniobium 2.5-3.5%, molybdenum powder 20-25%, nickel powder 2.5-3.5%, boron powder 2.5-3.0%, carbon powder 1.0-1.6%, and the balance is iron powder; the elements in the surfacing cladding layer prepared by the flux-cored wire include, by mass percentage: C 1.0-1.6%, Si 1.2-1.7%, Mn 0.5-1.0%, Ni 2.5-3.5%, Nb 1.3-1.8%, V 5-8%, Mo 20-25%, B 2.5-3.0%, and the balance is Fe.

[0014] By adding components such as ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrovanadium, ferroniobium, molybdenum, nickel, boron, and carbon to the flux powder, optimizing the reasonable ranges of each component, and adopting a surfacing process to regulate the reaction path to in-situ generate petal-shaped MC-type and skeleton-shaped eutectic M2B-type precipitated phases, the present invention realizes high hardness, high wear resistance, and impact resistance characteristics. To inhibit the coarse primary M7C3 phase, the present invention uses V and Nb elements to replace Cr elements to form a dispersed petal-shaped MC phase; at the same time, adjust the Mo / B ratio to promote the eutectic reaction to precipitate a skeleton-shaped M2B / Fe eutectic structure, improving toughness and impact resistance; considering the possible hardenability brought by B elements, by adding an appropriate amount of nickel powder, the toughness and strength of the matrix are enhanced; and manganese and silicon are used jointly to deoxidize the molten pool.
