1) The water-toughening treatment of sintered TiC-based steel alloy can effectively improve its flexural strength and impact toughness, and the effect on vacuum sintered products is the most significant.
2) During the sintering process of the TiC-based high-manganese steel alloy, the hard phase-matrix interface undergoes strong mutual dissolution and diffusion, resulting in the formation of a high Ti concentration distribution gradient in the matrix, which is not conducive to the effective combination of the phase interface.
3) The water toughening treatment improves the mechanical properties of TiC-based high-manganese steel alloys by improving the uniformity of element distribution , which plays a role in optimizing the interfacial bonding.
4) The sintered TiC-based steel-bonded alloy should be subjected to heat treatment similar to water toughening treatment to further improve its mechanical properties and give full play to its potential as a high-quality wear-resistant material.
