Plasma spray welding, as one of the material surface strengthening techniques, has the advantages of low alloy material consumption, high mechanical properties and good coating compactness. Here, the Co alloy, WC and Fe-based amorphous alloy composite coating is prepared by the plasma spray welding method, and the coating characteristics are investigated. The results indicate that the coatings have a full metallurgical bond in the coating/substrate interface, and the powder composition influences the microstructures and properties of the coating. The hardness of coatings increases with the mass fraction of the Fe-based amorphous alloy. The spray welding layer has a much higher wear resistance compared with the carbon steel, and the Fe-20 exhibits a superior wear resistance when compared to others. The results indicate that the amorphous alloy powders are an effective additive to prepare the coating by plasma spray welding for improving the wear resistance of the coating.

The effect of deep cryogenic treatment on microstructure and wear resistance of LC3530 Fe-based powder laser cladding coating was investigated in this paper. The cladding coating was subjected to deep cryogenic treatment for the different holding times of 3, 6, 9, 12, and 24 h, followed by tempering at room temperature. Microstructure of the cladding coating was observed by optical microscope (OM) and the microhardness was measured by the Vickers-hardness tester. The wear was tested by ball and flat surface grinding testing conducted on the material surface comprehensive performance tester. The wear scars were analyzed using a non-contact optical surface profiler and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed the grain size of cladding coating after 12 h of deep cryogenic treatment was significantly reduced by 36.50% compared to the non-cryogenically treated cladding coating, and the microhardness value increased by approximately 34%. According to the wear coefficient calculated by the Archard model, the wear resistance improved about five times and the wear mechanism was micro-ploughing. The deep cryogenic treatment could enhance the wear resistance of the cladding coating by forming a wear resistant alloy compound and higher surface microhardness.

In order to improve wear resistance of carbon steel, laser cladding experiments were carried out using a 3kW continuous wave CO2 laser. The diameter of the laser beam was 3-5mm, the scanning velocity was 3-10mm/s, and the laser output power was 1.0-1.3kW. The experimental results showed that MoSi2/SiCP composites coating could be in-situ synthesized from mixture powders of molybdenum, silicon and SiC by laser cladding. A good metallurgical bond between the coating and the substrate could be achieved. The microstructures of the coating were mainly composed of MoSi2, SiC and FeSiMo phases. The average microhardness of the coating was about HV0.21300, about 6.0 times larger than that of steel substrate.

Abstract This paper presents the results of a study on the wear resistance of plasma spray coatings made from Cr2O3-TiO2-CaF2 powders. The composite powders used were produced by self-propagating high temperature synthesis. They were then applied under various conditions in order to optimize the material system, spray process, and application procedures. Based on the results of microstructural examination and wear testing, the thermally sprayed composite coatings have excellent wear resistance, good adhesion, and are self-lubricating at high temperatures.

Abstract Plasma spray deposition of epoxies under normal conditions produces coatings with low wear resistance. The research shows that the difficulty in achieving satisfactory properties is a result of the rapid heat flow from the coating to the substrate, which suppresses the crosslinking reaction. The results indicate that the use of substrate preheating or ceramic undercoats enhances the wear resistance by promoting the curing reaction during spraying.

Laser cladding process is used to obtain protective coatings using as heat source a laser. This melts the substrate and the feedstock material to create a protective coating and provides a strong metallurgical bond with minimal dilution of the base material and reduced heat affected zone. In the present study a commercial NiCrSiFeB composition was deposited by laser cladding process using different parameters onto the surface of a steel substrate. The obtained coatings were investigated in terms of microstructure, hardness and wear behavior. The experimental results revealed that the laser power had a considerable influence on the wear resistance of NiCrSiFeB coatings.

Amorphous alloy material has good soft magnetic properties, so it can be used for stress measurement. At first, the working principle of the stress measurement was analyzed. Secondly its output characteristic mathematical model was established by adopting multivariate linear regression analysis method, and the simulation of the mathematical model was made based on Matlab. Finally a practice measurement with Fe-base TM—M Amorphous alloy was completed. The results of the test have showed that the stress measurement method has some characteristics of being sensitiveness to measure and simple to make a testing system, and a promising method of measuring stress.

The proposed paper deals about the heat treatment of two types of chromium tool steels that are assigned to work in specific conditions of abrasion wear. The materials are heat treated to achieve high hardness for higher abrasion wear resistance. An additional increase of the materials abrasion wear resistance can be achieved by applying nitridation with diffusion annealing of the material surface. The paper deals about the influence of the material purity, his chemical composition on the process of diffusion, the quality of the nitrided layer of a vacuum smelted steel Bӧhler W400 VMR and a chromium steel X210Cr12.

Abstract The Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC) used to improve the heat barrier and wear resistant property in high temperature of the aircraft engine and the automobile engine, usually has a two layer structure. One is a ceramic top layer for heat insulation and the other is a metal bond layer to facilitate the bond strength between the top ceramic layer and the substrate. But, the coated layers can be peeled off because of the accumulation of the thermal stress by the difference of the thermal expantion coefficient between metal and ceramics in a heat cyclic environment. In this study, the intermediate layer produced by plasma spray process was introduced to reduce the thermal stress. The powders of plasma spray coating were Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ), Magnesia Stabilized Zirconia (MSZ) and NiCrAIY. The intermediate layer was sprayed with the powders of partially stabilized zirconia with 50wt% NiCrAIY between the ceramics top coat and the bond coat for the purpose of alleviating heat expansion. The high temperature wear and thermal shock test were conducted. The high temperature wear resistance of the YSZ TBC was better than that of the MSZ TBC. The wear resistance decreased with incresing temperature between 400°C to 600°C. The 3 layers TBC with YSZ top coating showed the best thermal shock resistance. This means that the intermediate layer played an importnat roll to alleviate the difference of the thermal expansion between metallic layer and ceramics layer. SEM and OM were examined. The bond strength, hardness test, and wear test were also studied

Abstract This paper compares the coating characteristics of two HVOF processes: air-cooled converging-nozzle Diamond Jet (DJ) spraying and Hybrid 2600 air/water-cooled converging/diverging technology. WC-Co coatings were deposited on steel substrates using different combinations of spray parameters, gas flow ratios, and cooling gas types. The coatings were then examined and tested to determine the extent to which microstructure, hardness, surface roughness, wear resistance, and deposition efficiency can be controlled. In addition to investigating process relationships, the paper also addresses the issues of practicality and cost.
