Abstract
White chromium cast irons are used as wear-resistant materials operati ng under conditions of intense abrasive and impact-abrasive wear. The high wear resistance of white chromium cast irons is determined primar ily by the presence of a large amount (30% or more) of solid chromium carbides of the M(7)C(3) type. At the same time, an important effect o n their operating characteristics is exerted by the state of the metal lic base, which can have various structures depending on the alloying conditions and the heat treatment.
