Bulk cobalt- and nickel-based metallic materials exhibit superior resistance to cavitation erosion and sliding wear. Thus, thermally deposited High-Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) coatings seem promising for increasing the wear resistance of the bulk metal substrate. However, the effect of chemical composition on the cavitation erosion and sliding wear resistance of M(Co,Ni)CrAlY and NiCrMo coatings has not yet been exhaustively studied. In this study, High-Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) coatings such as CoNiCrAlY, NiCoCrAlY, and NiCrMoFeCo were deposited on AISI 310 (X15CrNi25-20) steel coupons. The microstructure, hardness, phase composition and surface morphology of the as-sprayed coatings were examined. Cavitation erosion tests were conducted using the vibratory method in accordance with the ASTM G32 standard. Sliding wear was examined with the use of a ball-on-disc tribometer, and friction coefficients were measured. The mechanism of wear was identified with the scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) method. In comparison to the NiCrMoFeCo coating, the CoNiCrAlY and NiCoCrAlY coatings have a lower sliding and cavitation wear resistance.

Environmental protection and worker safety measures against the extensively used hard chrome plating (EHC) is becoming more stringent, which leads to the development and application of alternative technology. As one of the most promising replacement technology of EHC, WC/Co coatings deposited by High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) have well performances in corrosion and wear resistance. The paper analyzed technical characteristics, property and cost of EHC and HVOF deposited WC-Co coatings, while results show that performance of HVOF sprayed WC-Co coatings is superior or equal to EHC with much higher expense, so current replacement of EHC by HVOF centers airplane and military arm field which have relatively higher profit.

The aim of the work was to investigate the resistance to cavitation erosion and sliding wear of sprayed HVOF coatings. M(Ni,Co)CrAlY and Cr3C2-NiCr based coatings were deposited using HVOF method onto stainless steel substrate grade AISI 304. As-sprayed coatings’ surface morphology was examined by SEM-EDS and profilometer methods. Cavitationerosion tests were conducted in distilled water with the use of vibratory rig and stationary specimen method. Cavitation erosion curves were plotted as well as cavitational wear mechanism was observed with the use of SEM microscope. Sliding wear tests were performed using the ball-on-disc tribotester with counter-specimen (ball) made of steel 100Cr6. Wearrates and coefficient of friction were computed. Normalized wear resistance with referenceto stainless steel reference sample AISI 304 was calculated. In addition, comparable analysis of wear resistance results was conducted. M(Ni,Co)CrAlY coating presented the highest cavitation erosion resistance, therefore Cr3C2-NiCr coating represented the highest sliding wear resistance of all tested materials.

This research work studies the characteristics of wear and wear resistance of composite powder coatings, deposited by high-velocity oxygen fuel, which contain composite mixtures Ni-Cr-B-Si having different chromium concentrations – 9.9%; 13.2%; 14%; 16% and 20% , at one and the same size of the particles and the same content of the remaining elements. The coating of 20% Cr does not contain B and Si. Out of each powder, composite coatings have been prepared without any preliminary thermal treatment of the substrate and with preliminary thermal treatment of the substrate up to 650оС. The coatings have been tested under identical conditions of dry friction over a surface of solid firmly attached abrasive particles using the tribological testing device „Pin-on-disk“. Results have been obtained and the dependences of the hardness, mass wear, intensity of the wearing process, absolute and relative wear resistance on the Cr concentration under identical conditions of friction. It has been found out that for all the coatings the preliminary thermal treatment of the substrate leads to a decrease in the wear intensity. Upon increasing Cr concentration the wear intensity diminishes and it reaches minimal values at 16% Cr. In the case of coatings having 20% Cr concentration, the wear intensity is increased, which is due to the absence of the components B and Si in the composite mixture, whereupon no inter-metallic structures are formed having high hardness and wear resistance. The obtained results have no analogues in the current literature and they have not been published by the authors.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to prepare WC-10Co-4Cr coatings using two processes of plasma spraying and high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) spraying. The decarburization behaviors of the different processes are analyzed individually. The microstructural characteristics of the as-sprayed coatings are presented and the wear mechanisms of the different WC–10Co–4Cr coatings are discussed in detail. Design/methodology/approach The WC–10Co–4Cr coatings were formed on the surface of Q235 steel by plasma and HVOF spraying. Findings Plasma spraying causes more decarburizing decomposition of the WC phase than HVOF spraying. In the plasma spraying process, η(Cr25Co25W8C2) phase appears and the C content decreases from the top surface of the coating to the substrate. Practical implications In this study, two WC–10Co–4Cr coatings on Q235 steel prepared by plasma and HVOF spraying were compared with respect to the sliding wear behavior. Originality/value The wear mechanisms of the plasma- and HVOF-sprayed coatings were abrasive and oxidation, respectively.

Tube boiler operating condition initiates common problems that can occur as a problem in the wear resistance material. It leads to a decreased function of the material so that it is necessary to repair or replacement. High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) is regarded as one of the effective methods to increase the wear resistance of the material. In this study, the materials were ASTM SA213-T91 as a material commonly used for boiler tube and JIS G 3132 SPHT-2 as an alternative material. In the early stages, both of specimens were given initial surface heating with temperature variations 0, 50, 100 and 150oC. The materials were then coated with Stellite-1 using HVOF method. The material were then characterized for the microstructure, porosity, hardness distribution, and wear resistant. The results showed that the coating Stellite-1 as a top coat with HVOF method can improve the performance of the material. Microhardness increases from 220 HV to 770 HV on ASTM SA213-T91, while on the substrate JIS G 3132 SPHT-2 the microhardness increased from 120 HV to 750 HV. Better wear resistance was achieved with increasing preheating [1]. Wear resistance of the materials increased from the range 3.69x10-7at 0°C preheating up to 0.89x10-7on a specimen with initial surface heating 150oC. Porosity also decreases with the increasing preheating temperature.
