WEAR RESISTANCE OF COATINGS FROM SELF-FLUXING ALLOYS AFTER LASER DOPING UNDER DRY FRICTION CONDITIONS
O. G. Devoino,a M. A. Kardapolova,a S. Laber,b E. A. Feldstein,b and O. V. D'yachenkoa UDC 621.891:621.793 The wear resistance of Ni-Cr-B-Si-C coatings after laser treatment with a doping covering under dry friction conditions has been investigated. The microstructure of coatings after fusion by a gas burner and a laser beam and the roughness and waviness parameters of the friction surfaces before and after wear have been investigated. aBelarusian National Technical University, 65 F.
