To enhance the cutting performance of the tool, single or multilayer coating is applied on the substrate of the tool. Coating material reduces cutting force and heat generation in tool-chip contact zone and enhances resistance against abrasive wear. This paper presents that the effect of different coatings on abrasive wear resistance varies with work material and the flank wear rate is different with depth of cut. Crater wear rate is also found to decrease with higher thermal diffusivity of coating material. It is verified that the estimated thermal diffusivity of multilayer coating has consistent effect on the crater wear.

A study has been investigated on the effect of mechanical properties (tension strength, rotary bending fatigue strength, wear resistance, hardness) according to the carbide particle size variation by the treatment of 1) quenching tempering, and 2) quenching, subzero treatment and tempering. The material used in this investigation was a typical bearing steel, high C high Cr, AISI E 52100. The result obtained in this study were as follows : (1) Finer the carbide particle size increasing the hardness and retained austenite in same quenching condition. (2) Finer the carbide particle size reduced the tension and rotary bending fatigue which were resulted from austenite grain growth and carbide precipitation on grain boundry that induced by carbide refine heat treatment. (3) Finer the carbide particel size increasing the wear resistance which were resulted by uniform distribution of carbide and increased hardness induced by microstructural uniform hardenability of matrix. (4) When the carbide particles were refinded, subzero treatment is effective only wear resistance and hardness.

It is well known that the aluminizing steel is excellent in corrosion resistance and heat resistance. Therefore it has been used as boiler parts, heat exchanger parts and guide rails which are used under comparatively simple conditions. Recently, it has been noticed that aluminizing steel has high resistance to various atmosphere, high temperature oxidation and seawater resistance. So its usage has been extended widely to the production of parts such as intake and exhaust valve of internal combustion engine, turbine blade and pipelines On ships which required such properties. It is considered that aluminium coated steel is excellent in wear resistance because of high hardness on main ingredient FezAIs of Fe-AI alloy layer existed in diffusion coating layer. And it will beused as a new material taking wear resitance with seawater resistance in marine field. However it is difficult to findout any report concering the wear behaviors or properties of alum in izing steel. In this study the experiment was carried out under the condition of rolling-sliding contact using an Amsler-type wear testing machine at 0.80, 0.91, 1. 10, 1. 25% of slip ratio and 55.43, 78.38, 110.85 kg/mm^2 of Hertz's contact stress in run-in period for the purpose of service-ability test of aluminizing steel as a wear resisting material and obtaining the available design data. The followings are the obtained results from the experimen tal study; 1) The 2nd diffusion material has most excellent wear resistance. This material has brought out about 18% decrease of wear weight in a lower friction load level and 40~G decrease in a higher level comparing to the raw material. 2) Satisfactory effect of wear resistivity cannot be much expected in 2nd diffusion specimens. This is considered due to the formation of fine void in the alloy layer near the boundary to the aluminium layer. 3) Fracture on friction surface of aluminizing steel by the rolling-sliding contact is spalling, and spalling crack occurres initially beneath the specimen surface near the boundary in diffusion coating layer.

Electroless plating is the desirable surface treatment method which is being widely used to all kinds of material such as requiring corrosion resistance, wear resistance and conductivity, especially plating of nonconductive material. Electroless nickel deposit has particular characteristics including non-magnetic property, amorphous structure, wear resistance, corrosion protection and thermal stability. In this study, electroless nickel plating was studied with an change in hardness and corrosion resistance of electroless nickel-phosphorus deposit depending on heat treatment. The highest hardness value was obtained by heat treatment at $500^{\circ}C$ Corrosion resistance of deposit, which had been heated at $300^{\circ}C$, was excellent when it was immersed in 1M $H_2SO_4$ solution for 60 hrs.

The current study was conducted to elucidate the effect of cementite morphology and matrix-ferrite microstructure on sliding wear behavior in spheroidized high carbon (1wt. % C) steel. The high carbon steel was initially heat treated to obtain a full pearlite or a martensite microstructure before the spheroidization. The spheroidizing heat treatment was performed on the full pearlitic steel for 100 hours at 700℃ and tempering was performed on the martensitic steel for 3 hours at 650℃. A spheroidized cementite phase in a ferrite matrix was obtained for both the full pearlite and the martensite microstructures. Sliding wear tests were conducted using a pin-on-disk wear tester with the heat treated steel as the disk specimen. An alumina(Al₂O₃) ball was used as the pin counterpart during the test. After the spheroidizing heat treatment and the tempering, both pearlite and martensite exhibited similar microstructures of spheroidized cementite in a ferrite matrix. The spheroidized pearlite specimens had lower hardness than the tempered martensite; however, the wear resistance of the spheroidized pearlite was superior to that of the tempered martensite.

Intense electron beam was irradiated on the CrAlN thin films deposited in SKD61 under different incident energies and then the effect of electron beam irradiation on the enhancement of surface hardness and wear resistance was investigated. Surface hardness and wear resistance of the CrAlN films is increased proportionally with the electron beam energy. While the surface hardness of as deposited CrAlN film is Hv ($0.1g{\cdot}f$) 450, the hardness oflectron irradiated (600 eV) film is Hv ($0.1g{\cdot}f$) 2050. The width of wear track of the untreated SKD61 is $X\_{\mu}m$, while the track-width of the electron irradiated CrAlN (600 eV) film is $787{\mu}m$, respectively. From the observed results, it is supposed that the optimal electron beam irradiation can be one of the useful surface treatment technologies for the enhancement of surface hardness and wear resistance of CrAlN/SKD61, simultaneously.

Commercial carbon steels containing 0.2~0.55 wt.----C were plasma-nitrided or plasma nitrocarburized at $550^{\circ}C$ for 21.6Ks using $H_2-N_2$ or $H_2-N_2$-CO mixed gas respectively. The characteristics of hardening and wear-resistance of each treatment were studied and compared. And also microstructure of nitrided layer and nitrides formed in compound layer near surface were studied. All plasma-nitrided steels investigated showed remarkable increase of surface hardness with the increase of carbon content. But nitrocarburized steels resulted in higher surface-hardness than plasma-nitrided steels, which means that nitrocarburized has higher surface-hardening effect. Plasma-nitrided steels showed hardness increase in through-thickness direction near surface. And also nitrocarburized steels showed similar hardness distribution in through-thickness direction to that of plasma-nitrided steel. However, nitrocarburized steels had higher cross-sectional maximum-hardness than plasma-nitrided steels as much as 100Hv. Wear test showed that the amount of specific wear was reduced by both plasma-nitriding and nitrocarburized, showing that the amount of specific wear was not related to the hardness. But non-treated specimen showed that the amount of specific wear was related to the hardness.

Al-Fe alloy layers on heated steel sheet were made by Al powder spray for 30 minutes at $700^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$ and $1000^{\circ}C$, respectively. As a results, for alloy layers formed at $700^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$, main phases were brittle phase $FeAl_3 and Fe_2Al_5$, hardnesses were very high (Hv 700~800), corrosion resistances were good and surfaces were smooth, but wear resistances were bad. For alloy layer formed at $1000^{\circ}C$, main phase was ductile phase $Fe_3Al$, hardness was low (Hv 300~400), corrosion and wear resistances were excellent, but surface was rough. Therefore, alloy layers that formed at $700^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ were heat treated at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes for the purpose of smooth surface and excellent wear resistance in this study. It was investigated that brittle phase $FeAl_3 and Fe_2Al_5$ of alloy layers fromed by Al powder spray at $700^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ turn into ductile phase $Fe_3Al$ by heat treated at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes without changing smooth surface. It was concluded that the alloy layers formed by Al powder spray on heated steel sheet at $700^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes and heat treated at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes were excellent on wear and smooth surface.

The carburising surface modification treatment of the die steel has been used for improving wear resistance and heat cycle strength of the die and preventing a pitting on the surface because the carbides are forming in the matrix during carburising. Generally, the hot forging die was used after quenching-tempering treatment or nitriding after quenching-tempering treatment. The nitriding after carburising on the surface of a hot die steel and a wear resistance die steels was suggested by SOUCHARD, JACQUOT. and BUVRON. This surface modification treatment improved the adhesive and abrasive wear resistance and friction coefficient. The process was introduced to the forging die of stainless steel, titanium alloy steel, alloy and medium carbon steel and the physical properties of the die after the treatment were improved. The surface hardening treatment of the nitriding, the carburising, the boriding, and TD process were used to improved the life time of the forging die. Also, the coating process of PVD, CVD and PCVD were used and the hard chromium plating was occasionally used. Therefore, this study analyzed the effects of the carburising time and the conditions of nitriding on STD61 steel. The case depth, the surface hardness, the forming carbide size and shape during overcarburising process on the die steel were also examined.
