| Abstract Scope |
Steel is a fundamental material in various industries due to its versatile properties and wide range of applications. Increasing the lifetime of steel-based parts in industries is essential for economic efficiency, sustainability, safety, regulatory compliance, and technological advancement. Aluminum extrusion dies are made from tool steel. During extrusion process of relatively hard aluminum alloys, life time of extrusion dies decreases 20 times due to high temperature and abrassion comparing to conventional alloys extrusion. In order to overcome this problem, H13 extrusion die steels are coated with advanced high entrophy alloys and characterised by SEM analysis and hardness tests in this study. Finally, in order to test the performance in lab-scale and industrial conditions, un-coated and coated extrusion die steels are subjected to pin-on disc tests and industrial aluminum extrusion process. It can be stated that performance steels have increased. Also, results are evaluated economically and environmentally withing this research. |
