Abstract

The regularities of fracture and their influence on the wear resistance of low-alloy 65G steel when moving in abrasive-vegetable masses of various types have been studied. A non-monotonic change in wear resistance has been established as a result of strengthening and softening effect of the plant component. It is proved that the influence of the type of abrasive-vegetable mass on wear resistance is realized through the rheological-fatigue parameter in a directly proportional relationship. At the same time, the force components of the contact interaction are not always the determining ones during wear. It is shown that in the case of a low content of the liquid phase, the wear resistance and kinetics of metal fracture are determined by force factors, and in the case of a high content of the liquid phase, by the parameters of the physicochemical processes of interaction of the environment with the metal, among which the closest correlation is established with the cyclic deformation viscosity.
