Material Properties of High-Speed Steel Rolls

Recently, it has been required to improve the material properties of high-speed steel (HSS) rolls, because of the low wear resistance and low mechanical properties. To improve them, several new steels have been proposed, which have high wear resistance as well as excellent mechanical properties, e.g., hardness and tensile properties, where additional elements (V, Cr and W) were employed. However, their steels may have still technical issues, as the roll surfaces become roughened during the production process. The reason for this problem is found to be affected by the oxidation of the HSS surface. In this
work, we have provided the suggestions to make high wear resistance of the HSS rolls
