DETERMINING PROPERTIES OF NICKEL BASED COMPOSITE THAT REINFORCED BY ELECTROLESS NICEL PLATED BORON NITRIDE AND ASTALOY-CrM POWDERS

In this study, Ni coated (1.66% BN- 31.65% Astaloy-CrM) powders were formed circularly in uniaxial press. These samples are sintered in conventional furnace with argon atmosphere at 1000-1100-1200-1300-1400 ° C. After sintering, mechanical and metallographic XRD and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) were investigated. The highest hardness value of 86,12 HB was obtained in the 66,67% composite sample sintered (1,66% BN- 31,65% Astaloy-CrM) at 1400 °C from the experimental results.
