Abstract
Three series of ternary alloys of the
{M-30Cr-xC}-type with M = Co, Ni or Fe and x ranging from 2.5 to 5 wt% were
elaborated by casting. Their microstructure characterizations by XRD and SEM
show that very high volume fractions in chromium carbides (even more than 50%)
may be obtained in a metallic matrix by this way. However graphite may also
appear in very low quantities in the carbon-richest alloys. The hardness
increases with the carbon content (up to 1000 Hv30kg) but it may be a little
lowered when graphite is also present. The results show that very hard alloys
may be simply obtained by casting of rather cheap elements.
