Effect of Indentation Load on Nanomechanical Properties Measured in a Multiphase Boride Layer
The study investigated the dependence of the indentation load on nanomechanical properties for a gas-borided layer produced on Inconel 600-alloy. During the measurements, the indentation load range from 10 mN to 500 mN was used. Three types of tested areas, differing in the concentration of chromium...

| Sumario: | The study investigated the dependence of the indentation load on nanomechanical properties for a gas-borided layer produced on Inconel 600-alloy. During the measurements, the indentation load range from 10 mN to 500 mN was used. Three types of tested areas, differing in the concentration of chromium, were examined. The increase in chromium concentration was accompanied by an increase in indentation hardness and Young’s modulus. Simultaneously, the increase in the indentation load resulted in a decrease in the indentation hardness and Young’s modulus, for each type of the tested area. The presence of the indentation size effect was analyzed using four models: Meyer’s law, Hays and Kendall model, Li and Bradt model, Nix and Gao model. For all tested areas, good agreement with the Meyer’s law was obtained. However, areas with a higher chromium concentration were more susceptible to indentation size effect (ISE). The proportional specimen resistance (PSR) model was used to describe the plastic-elastic behavior of the tested materials, as well as to detect the presence of ISE. It was found that the increase in chromium concentration in the tested area was accompanied by a greater tendency to elastic deformation during nanoindentation. |
