Abrasive wear is a principal cost in mining and mineral processing operations. High
chromium white cast iron (WCI) further reinforced with niobium carbide (NbC) shows …

There is a huge demand for high-performance materials in extreme environments involving
wear and corrosion. High chromium white cast irons (HCWCIs) display better performance …

The addition of NbC to high chromium white cast irons (WCIs) has potential to improve
component wear lives in mining and ore beneficiation environments, due to the combined …

Erosive wear characteristics of (18 and 27) wt.% Cr based multicomponent (3 wt% V, Mo, W,
and Co) white cast iron have been systematically investigated with three conditions: as-cast …

The microstructure and wear behavior of a manganese and niobium alloyed high chromium
cast iron were examined and compared to an as-cast chromium cast iron. Three heat …

High chromium white cast iron (HCWCI) is considered a hard machinable material because
of its high carbide content, which when associated with a matrix, forms a rigid and very hard …

Since it is well known in the literature that transition metals can form extremely hard carbides
and effectively strengthen a material's matrix, recently, some of them, such as V, Nb, Cr, Mo …

The objective of this study is to analyze the effect of dynamic solidification and vanadium
additions in a range from zero to 6.42​ wt% to a high chromium white iron with the purpose …

A functionally graded NbC–high chromium white cast iron composite was successfully
fabricated by centrifugal casting for high wear applications. The migration of primary NbC …

This research presents the systematic study of the effects of niobium and molybdenum in
high chromium cast irons (HCCI). Four 18% Cr/2.7% C alloys were melted: a base alloy, an …
