Description

The effect of the physical and chemical properties of the material of a carbide VK8 alloying electrode with 1-5 wt % Al2O3 nanopowder was studied based on the composition, structure, and properties in the modified surface layer upon the electro mechanized hardening of steel 35 with varying the frequency and duration of the electrical pulse repetition. The data obtained can serve as a basis for creating devices of a new generation, special electrode materials, and for developing the technologies for nanostructuring the surface layers of metal materials.
