摘要: 以α-Al2O3为填充剂,2%活性炭为添加剂,对40CrNiMo钢进行恒压交流电场辅助渗硼,研究了渗硼电流的变化规律。通过调节交流电场电压得到稳定的低温渗硼温度,在40CrNiMo钢表面制备渗硼层,利用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)和显微硬度计对渗硼层进行了表征。结果表明,因活性炭吸附在α-Al2O3粉末表面形成稳定的导电结构,使电场辅助渗硼不同阶段的渗硼电流相对稳定,从而可得到相对稳定的渗硼温度。调节电场电压将实际渗硼温度控制在较低温度(650、680、700 ℃),可在40CrNiMo钢表面制备致密单相Fe2B渗硼层。经SEM观察渗硼层厚度≥13 μm,且渗层表层硬度均较高,即使在650 ℃渗硼,硬度也可达约1200 HV0.05。

Abstract: Using α-Al2O3 powder as boriding filler and 2% activated carbon as additive, the variation of boriding current was investigated under a constant AC electric field assisted pack-boriding carried out on 40CrNiMo steel. By adjusting the AC electric field voltage to obtain stable low temperature boriding temperature, a borided layer was prepared on the surface of 40CrNiMo steel and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and microhardness tester. The results show that a stable conductor is created as a result of activated carbon adhering to the Al2O3 powder's surface, which stabilizes the boriding current at different stages of the electric field assisted pack-boriding, resulting in a relatively stable boriding temperature. A dense single-phase Fe2B borided layer on the surface of 40CrNiMo steel can be prepared by adjusting the electric field voltage to control the actual boriding temperature at a lower temperature (650, 680, 700 ℃). The SEM observation shows that the thickness of the borided layer is ≥13 μm. The surface hardness of the borided layer is relatively high and can reach about 1200 HV0.05 even at 650 ℃.
