Abstract:The property of carburized gear were greatly affected by surface carbon content, carburized coating thickness and carbon content distribution. Two gear samples with different carburizing process conditions were used as research object.The quantitative analysis of surface carbon content, the carburized coating thickness and the carbon content distribution state was conducted by adjusting the working conditions of electron probe X-ray micro-analyzer. The optimal conditions were obtained as follows: the acceleration voltage was 10 kV, the electron beam current was 200 nA and the beam size was 20 μm. Meanwhile, the determination results of carbon content in center of two gears were compared with those obtained by spark source atomic emission spectrometry. The carbon content distribution and hardness gradient were also compared. The results showed that the measured results of carbon content in center of samples by electron probe analyzer were closed to those obtained by spark source atomic emission spectrometry. The carbon distribution tread of two samples tested by electron probe was similar to the hardness gradient distribution tread obtained by the hardness meter. Therefore, the carbon content in carburized coating could be accurately determined by electron probe X-ray micro-analyzer. Moreover, the carbon content distribution in whole carburized coating of sample with different carburizing process conditions could be intuitively reflected.
