Abstract
The mechanical property improvement of M7C3 carbides in hypereutectic Fe–Cr–C hardfacing coating is required for its widespread application and longer service life. Vanadium is a frequently used alloying element, while the effects of V doping on the stability and tensile properties of M7C3 carbide have been rarely reported. In this article, the formation enthalpy, structural stability, anisotropic tensile properties and electronic structure of V-doped M7C3 (Fe3Cr4C3) carbide were calculated by the first-principles method. The mechanism by which the tensile property of Fe3Cr4C3 carbide can be improved by V-atom doping is discussed. The results show that the formation enthalpy (−0.24 eV/atom) of Fe3Cr3VC3 carbide is lower than that (0.48 eV/atom) of Fe3Cr4C3 carbide, which indicates that the formation of Fe3Cr3VC3 carbide is more facile. The absence of an imaginary frequency in the phonon dispersion spectra reveals that the Fe3Cr3VC3 carbide model is stable. Compared with Fe3Cr4C3 carbide, the tensile strength of Fe3Cr3VC3 carbide in the (0001) crystal face is increased from 44.42 to 48.46 GPa and that in the (1111) crystal face is also increased, from 28.99 to 34.19 GPa. The reasons that the tensile property of Fe3Cr4C3 can be improved by V doping are the electron redistribution and the formation of stronger bonds in Fe3Cr3VC3 carbide.
