Tensile fracture surfaces of the alloy were characterized by scanning electronic microscope (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The results showed that, after deep cryogenic treatment, σb and σ0.2 increased 23 MPa and 21 MPa respectively, the wear rate of the alloy exhibited the trend of decrease with the decreasing temperature and increasing time of deep cryogenic treatment, and the surface residual stress of the alloy was partially eliminated by deep cryogenic treatment.展开更多
