This review is done essentially to study results in the field of synthesis and characterization of SiC reinforced Al-SiC composite coatings using thermal spray process. SiC reinforced composite coatings produced by thermal spray process are being developed for a wide variety of applications, e.g. aerospace, automotive, structural and industrial. It is anticipated that, if properly deposited, Al-ceramic coatings could also provide improved properties like wear resistance and thermal barrier coatings. These results clearly demonstrate that the significant improvement in coating performance can be achieved by utilizing proper thermal spray conditions and SiC % in composite coatings. This paper presents a critical review on SiC reinforced Al-SiC composite coatings using thermal spray by various researchers in past years. The researcher’s findings with necessary parameters for achieve good Al-SiC composite coatings are given.

Thermal spray technology allows providing wear-resistant coating on the surface of mechanical components. In this study, wear characteristics of thermally sprayed Al/SiC composite coatings were evaluated. These Al/SiC composite coatings reinforced with SiC particles were fabricated on Al 6061 substrate by thermal spray process. Dry sliding wear tests were performed using the varied sliding speeds and applied loads. Wear behavior of these Al/SiC composite coatings were investigated using scanning electron microscope(SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX) and X-ray diffraction(XRD).

The image of thermal spray splats is difficult to collect due to its high velocity of droplets. Especial in High Velocity Oxy-Fuel (HVOF) process, the process present higher velocity of flame jet correlated to other thermal spray process. The system presents at this article describes a useful splats catching method to obtaining splats during thermal spray deposited. Capabilities and advantages of using this instrument are declared at this theme. The final result presented the instrument caught the single spot of HVOF sprayed splats at sub-micro second. Splats of spot were dispersed well on the glass substrate at the obtaining system, and presented various information of droplets impact at different location on the substrate.
