Abstract
The tribological behaviour of a novel high-nitrogen Cr-Mn austenitic s tainless steel (referred to as CrMnN-steel) has been investigated usin g dry abrasion, abrasion-corrosion, and cavitation erosion test techni ques. The performance of CrMnN-steel has been compared to AISI 304 sta inless steel and Hadfield manganese steel. Hadfield steel demonstrates the highest abrasion resistance, but CrMnN-steel is far superior when a corrosive environment is introduced. The cavitation erosion resista nce of CrMnN-steel in distilled water is greater than both AISI 304 an d Hadfield steel. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.
