This study presents the effect of heat treatment on porosity, phase composition, microhardness, and wear and corrosion resistances of the thermal sprayed NiCr20 coating after sealing with aluminum phosphate. The annealing temperatures were varied in a range of 400 to 1000°C. The obtained results indicated the porosity of coating decreased with increasing the annealing temperature. After treatment at temperatures in range of 800-1000°C, more than 90% of initial pores in the coating were successfully filled with the sealants. The XRD data revealed not only the formation of new phases of other compounds, but also the interaction between coating and sealant. After heat treatment, wear resistance of coating was 12 times higher than that without heat treatment. The corrosion test in H2SO4 solution indicated that the presence of sealant in coatings increased their corrosion resistance. From these findings, application of these NiCr20 coatings to protect steel against wear and corrosion appears very promising.

In this Paper, electroless nickel-phosphorus composite of Al2O3 deposit is prepared by chemical plating on 45 steel. Surface topography, microstructure and major elements are analyzed by SEM, EDS and XRD. The results show that the deposit is compact and the binding of the coating interface is very good. It is found that the microstructure of deposit is amorphous and after heat treatment is crystalline. Corrosion test showed that the coating's corrosion resistance is related to heat treatment temperature. It exhibits better corrosion resistance at annealing temperature of 250°C.

In order to improve the wear and corrosion resistance of an AZ91D magnesium alloy substrate, an Al0.5CoCrCuFeNi high-entropy alloy coating was successfully prepared on an AZ91D magnesium alloy surface by laser cladding using mixed elemental powders. Optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction were used to characterize the microstructure of the coating. The wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the coating were evaluated by dry sliding wear and potentiodynamic polarization curve test methods, respectively. The results show that the coating was composed of a simple FCC solid solution phase with a microhardness about 3.7 times higher than that of the AZ91D matrix and even higher than that of the same high-entropy alloy prepared by an arc melting method. The coating had better wear resistance than the AZ91D matrix, and the wear rate was about 2.5 times lower than that of the AZ91D matrix. Moreover, the main wear mechanisms of the coating and the AZ91D matrix were different. The former was abrasive wear and the latter was adhesive wear. The corrosion resistance of the coating was also better than that of the AZ91D matrix because the corrosion potential of the former was more positive and the corrosion current was smaller.

To improve the wear resistance and anti-corrosion properties of the aluminum, the electroless plating Ni-W-Mo-P alloy on the aluminum is necessary. The influences of heat treatment and additives (stabilizers) on the porosity, deposition rate, corrosion current, corrosion potential, microhardness and wear resistance of electroless plating Ni-W-Mo-P alloy coating, were investigated using electrochemical methods, etc. The results show that the deposition rate and anti-corrosion properties of electroless plating Ni-W-Mo-P are improved when the stabilizers, including KI (1mg/L) and “KIO3 (1mg/L) + Pb (Ac)2 (1mg/L)”, are added into bath, respectively. In addition, the maximum hardness (902 HV) and good wear resistance of Ni-W-Mo-P coatings are obtained when heated at 400°C (1h). However, its corrosion resistance is worse. Its microhardness is also obviously improved after heated at 200°Cfor 6 h, and the microhardness reaches to 950 HV.

In this study, Fe40Cr19Mo18C15B8 amorphous coatings were prepared using high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) technology. Different temperatures were used in the heat treatment (600 °C, 650 °C, and 700 °C) and the annealed coatings were analyzed by DSC, SEM, TEM, and XRD. XRD and DSC results showed that the coating started to form a crystalline structure after annealing at 650 °C. From the SEM observation, it can be found that when the annealing temperature of the Fe-based amorphous alloy coating reached 700 °C, the surface morphology of the coating became relatively flat. TEM observation showed that when the annealing temperature of the Fe-based amorphous alloy coating was 700 °C, crystal grains in the coating recrystallized with a grain size of 5–20 nm. SAED analysis showed that the precipitated carbide phase was M23C6 phase with different crystal orientations (M = Fe, Cr, Mo). Finally, the corrosion polarization curve showed that the corrosion current density of the coating after annealing only increased by 9.13 μA/cm2, which indicated that the coating after annealing treatment still had excellent corrosion resistance. It also proved that the Fe-based amorphous alloy coating can be used in high-temperature environments. XPS analysis showed that after annealing FeO and Fe2O3 oxide components increased, and the formation of a large number of crystals in the coating resulted in a decrease in corrosion resistance.

Abstract WC-Co-Cr represents an important composition for hardmetal-like coatings which is appHed when simuhaneous wear and corrosion resistance is required. In this paper five commercially available spray powders obtained by various production techniques (sintered and crushed as well as agglomerated and plasma-densified) of the composition WC-10%Co- 4%Cr have been thoroughly characterized and were sprayed by DCS, HVOF (CDS process) and APS. The microstructures of the coatings were characterized and their wear behaviour was investigated by means of an abrasion wear test. For the best of these powders the wear resistance was nearly equal for the DGS and HVOF coatings. Other powders show significant differences with respect to their processabilities in these spray processes. APS coatings from all powders, obtained with an Ar/H2 plasma showed inferior microstructures and significant lower wear resistance. The spray powder compositions, grain sizes and structures were found to determine the processability of the powders and the microstructure and properties of the coatings. COMPOSITE MATERIALS of the type hard phase - metallic binder with WC and CoCr as constituents are widely used for the preparation of hardmetal-like coatings. The chromium addition to the metallic binder is thought to improve its corrosion resistance in comparison with pure WC-Co. This has led to many applications of WC-CoCr coatings where simultaneous wear and corrosion resistance is required. Despite of its significant practical importance only a limited number of publications is devoted to detailed questions of structure and properties of WC-CoCr coatings (1-3). In some comparative studies such coatings have been investigated together with WC-Co and Cr3C2-NiCr coatings (4-8). However, systematic investigations of spray powder compositions and morphologies as well as investigations of the influence of different thermal spray processes on coating structures and properties which have repeatedly been provided for WC-Co (for example (9, 10)) are missing for WC-CoCr. In this paper a short survey of literature on the phase relationships in the WC-CoCr system and the effect of chromium additions on the properties of sintered parts and thermally sprayed coatings compared to WC-Co is given. In the experimental part a systematic study of the influence of the preparation process on composition and morphology of commercially available WC-10%Co-4%Cr spray powders was provided. These powders have been sprayed by DGS, HVOF and APS and the microstructure and basic properties of the coatings have been studied.

Abstract Fusible Ni-B-Si alloys with a variety of alloy additions (Cr, Mo, Cu etc.) have been in service for many years as fused coatings with moderate corrosion resistance. Both gas- and water-atomised powders have been used with the spray and fuse and with the plasma transferred arc process to produce coatings. As the severity of corrosive industrial environments has increased, for example in waste burning boilers, existing alloys have not provided the desired service performance. This study was undertaken to develop a new family of alloys with improved corrosion resistance without sacrificing usability, wear resistance or cost effectiveness. A range of compositions was prepared and evaluated for deposition characteristic, microstructure, hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance in various media. The resulting alloy has an exceptional combination of wear and corrosion resistance in comparison to conventional alloys, when tested under comparable conditions.

The work presents studies of a new ceramic-metallic material. The base is a ZrO2-Mo cermet which is modified with metallic Mo or Mo85Re15 alloy coating. The structure and microstructure of Mo85Re15 alloy powders and the composite were characterized. The annealing procedure was found to influence phase composition of powder composites but not their morphology. The plasma sprayed powders, both metallic and alloyed, form coatings that adhere well to the cermet substrate. The coatings show a better homogeneity in comparison to powders and more favourable phase composition.Keywords: cermets, plasma spraying, corrosion resistance

Amorphous Cr–C alloy coating was prepared by electrodepositing. The microhardness of the coating was tested after annealing from 100°C to 800°C and the crystallization evolution was studied by the analysis of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning caborimetry (DSC). The results showed that the crystallization evolution of the coating began at 300°C and finished around 450°C, and intermetallic compound Cr7C3and Cr23C6appeared when heat treatment temperature reached around 600°C. The microhardness, corrosion resistance as well as the adhesion of the coating all increased first with the temperature and then dropped until it attained the proper values. The microhardness reached the maximum of 1610HV0.025at 600°C. While the corrosion resistance and the adhesion force attained the peak value at about 400°C.

Nickel-boron coatings were synthesized on mild steel by the electroless deposition method. Some of the coatings were submitted to a hardening heat treatment at 400°C during 1 hour in an atmosphere containing 95% Ar and 5% H2. Uncoated steel, treated and untreated samples were submitted to the Taber abrasion test to assess their wear resistance. The wear track was then examined by SEM and roughness measurement. The Taber Wear Index of untreated samples was slightly better than that of steel but heat treated samples attained TWI as small as 13. The corrosion resistance of the samples was investigated by the way of polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and the influence of the heat treatment was observed.

The present study investigates the effect of titania particles on the micro-hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and friction of electroless Ni–P–TiO2 composite coatings deposited on mild steel substrates at different annealing temperatures. The experimental results confirmed that the amount of TiO2 particles incorporated in the coatings increases with increase in the concentration of particles in the electroless bath. In presence of TiO2 particles, hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the coating improve significantly. At higher annealing temperature, wear resistance increases due to formation of hard Ni3P phase and incorporation of titania particles in the coated layer. Charge transfer resistance and corrosion current density of the coatings reduce with an increase in TiO2 particles, whereas corrosion potential increases. Microstructure changes and composition of the composite coating due to heat treatment are studied with the help of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis.
