Abstract: The wear resistance of 28Cr cast iron having different matrices was studied by pin-disc abrasion test using, two kinds of abrasives (green SIC and garnet). It was shown that 28Cr white cast iron can be successfully used in the as-cast condition. Furthermore, the abrasion-corrosion wear resistance of as-cast 28Cr iron and martensitic 15Cr1Mo1Cu cast iron were compared in media with different PH values. Results showed that 28Cr cast iron is more competitive than 15Cr1MO1Cu cast iron in certain environments. In addition, in order to satisfy the requirements of engineering practice the mechanical properties of 28Cr white cast iron with different matrices and chemical compositions were determined.
