Abstract

The influence of the surface alloying during formation of the surface nanocrystalline structure by severe plastic deformation on contact fatigue of ShKh15 steel in oil and corrosive-abrasive medium was studied. The alloying of the surface nanostructure increases the contact fatigue resistance while the degree of influence depends on the ratio of “useful”, “neutral” and “harmful” alloying elements as segregations on the grain boundaries. Specimens alloyed with carbon, silicium and nickel have the highest contact fatigue resistance: their contact fatigue life in oil increases in 1.9 times compared with thermal treated ones, and in corro¬sive-agressive mediun – in 4.7 times.
