Effect of chromium and molybdenum increment on the crystal structure, nanoindentation and corrosion properties of cobalt based alloys

Effect of chromium and molybdenum increment on the crystal structure, nanoindentation and corrosion properties of cobalt based alloys
Effect of chromium and molybdenum increment on the crystal structure, nanoindentation and corrosion properties of cobalt based alloys
This study investigated the influence of chromium and molybdenum content (Cr: 20 – 35 wt.%, Mo: 5 and 10 wt.%) in a cobalt chromium molybdenum alloy system on the phases present in the microstructure, the nanomechanical and electrochemical behavior of the alloys. A linear increase in the hardness was found in relation to the increasing chromium content for both 5 and 10 wt.% Mo contents, whereas reduced modulus demonstrated an inflection at 30 wt.% Cr, which was influenced by the molybdenum content. The open circuit potential, polarization resistivity and linear sweep voltammetry disclosed that passivity of Co-Cr-Mo alloys improved in line with increasing Cr until 30 wt.%, with any further increase causing a depreciation in the corrosion properties. X-ray diffraction and optical metallographic analysis confirmed that as the chromium content transitioned through the 25-30 wt.% range, the sigma (σ) phase began to develop within the combined matrix of hexagonal close pack martensite (ε) and face centered cubic austenite (γ) phase.

Abstract

This study investigated the influence of chromium and molybdenum content (Cr: 20 – 35 wt.%, Mo: 5 and 10 wt.%) in a cobalt chromium molybdenum alloy system on the phases present in the microstructure, the nanomechanical and electrochemical behavior of the alloys. A linear increase in the hardness was found in relation to the increasing chromium content for both 5 and 10 wt.% Mo contents, whereas reduced modulus demonstrated an inflection at 30 wt.% Cr, which was influenced by the molybdenum content. The open circuit potential, polarization resistivity and linear sweep voltammetry disclosed that passivity of Co-Cr-Mo alloys improved in line with increasing Cr until 30 wt.%, with any further increase causing a depreciation in the corrosion properties. X-ray diffraction and optical metallographic analysis confirmed that as the chromium content transitioned through the 25-30 wt.% range, the sigma (σ) phase began to develop within the combined matrix of hexagonal close pack martensite (ε) and face centered cubic austenite (γ) phase.
