Abstract
Alloyed gray cast iron of varying compositions was studied for their wear behavior. In general, the alloyed gray irons studied have higher graphite volume fraction (∼20%) with Type-A graphite flake morphology. Base cast iron showed two to three times higher wear rates than the alloyed gray irons. Tensile strength and wear rates show decreasing trend with increase in graphite and carbide volume fraction. Wear track analysis shows three body abrasive wear mode resulting in debris generation and smudging along the wear tracks. The graphite gets released during sliding to form films along the wear tracks and then forms irregular debris. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
