Influence of deep-cryogenic treatment on tribological properties of P/M high-speed steel

Tribological tests indicate that deep-cryogenic treatment contributes to improved abrasive wear resistance and better galling properties of P/M high-speed steel. However, austenizing temperature is a very important parameter, which defines the level of possible improvement.
