The results showed that the volume fraction of carbide M7C3 was more than sixty percent, and the relative wear resistance of the coating tested on a block-on-ring dry sliding tester at constant load （100 N） and variable loads （from 100 to 300 N） respectively was about 9 and 14 times higher than that of non-reinforced a-Fe coating. In addition, under constant load condition the friction coefficients （FCs） of two coatings increased first and then decreased with increasing sliding distance. However, under variable loads condition the FCs of non-reinforced a-Fe based coating increased gradually, while that of HVF MTC3 reinforced coating decreased as the load exceeded 220 N. The worn surface of non-reinforced a-Fe based coating was easily deformed and grooved, while that of the HVF M7C3 reinforced coating was difficult to be deformed and grooved.展开更多
