Abstract
 

This study is concerned with the microstructural analysis and reviewing of wear resistance, of tensile strength and of the surface hardness of low carbon steel sheet alloy by a high energy electron beam. The modified surface microstructure was characterized with methods of optical microscopy (OM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Flux was not deposited on low carbon steel sheet alloy, and the electron beam was irradiated on material. Shock hardening on material by high energy electron beam did not improve wear resistance, tensile strength and the surface hardness. These findings suggested that surface shock hardening using high energy electron beam irradiation was not economical and useful for the development of surface shock hardening with improved resistance.
