ABSTRACT
Steel is one of the most widely used alloys because of its excellent properties such as high toughness, good workability, and low cost. However, steel has weak wear resistance, which limits its range of applications and service life. We have used the microarc oxidation (MAO) technique to form an Al2O3 ceramic coating on the surface of nonvalve metal low-carbon steel, which is used to enhance the wear resistance of low-carbon steel. Tribological experiments have shown that the coefficient of friction is reduced by 26.9%, hardness is improved, and wear resistance is enhanced after MAO compared to the substrate. Through a series of characterizations, the wear mechanism of the MAO samples was found to be a complex friction mechanism including abrasive wear, adhesive wear, and friction oxidation. After MAO, the wear resistance of nonvalve metal low-carbon steel is improved. The use of steel can be extended and its service life can be prolonged. This innovative approach provides a viable solution for the development of low-carbon steel coatings.
