In present study HVOF spraying process had been employed for depositing 93(WC-Cr3C2)-7Ni, 75Cr3C2-25NiCr, 83WC-17CO and 86WC-10CO-4Cr coatings on ASME SA213 T22. All the coatings were found dense and uniform having thickness between 200-250µm. All the coatings on ASME SA213 T22 used in present studies have provided resistance to corrosion in coal fired boiler environment in superheater zone when exposed for 10 cycles at 900°C. Each cycle consists of 100 hours heating followed by 1 hour cooling at ambient conditions. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) techniques were used to analyse corrosion products. The results showed that among coated specimens 93(WC-Cr3C2)-7Ni and 75Cr3C2-25NiCr coatings has shown maximum and minimum resistance to corrosion respectively. The better corrosion resistance of 93(WC-Cr3C2)-7Ni coated steel alloys may be attributed to the formation of thin band of oxides of nickel, chromium; and carbides of tungsten.

Sprayed Coatings

Abstract Until now the use of thermal sprayed metallic coatings for wet corrosion protection is limited to applications where the coating (Al-alloys, Zn-alloys and their mixtures) acts as an anode to protect the substrate or special cases, where thick cold sprayed metallic layers give good results. Other atmospheric cold sprayed layers made of corrosion resistant Ni, Co, Cu or Fe base alloys have their limitations due to the process related discontinuities like pores and oxide films. In more aggressive environments thermal sprayed and fused layers made of so called self-fluxing Ni and Co based alloys are commonly applied. Also in some applications the use of specially designed gas shrouds or of spraying techniques running in inert gas atmospheres or vacuum can yield protective coating solutions. However, these techniques have high investment or service costs or the size of the parts to be coated is restricted. Recent developments in HVOF-spraying open new possibilities in applying cold sprayed coatings on site with good corrosion resistance. The aim of this paper is on one hand to give a comparative overview about the wet corrosion behaviour of thermally sprayed metallic coatings using different spraying techniques related to the performance of the corresponding bulk materials and on the other hand to demonstrate the potential of a new generation of coatings to protect or repair structures exposed to aggressive environments.

Sprayed Coatings

Abstract Coatings have been prepared using the Diamond Jet hybrid and JP5000 high velocity oxyfuel (HVOF) systems with the objectives of improving corrosion resistance and reducing costs through increasing deposition efficiency. Models relating deposition efficiency, coating oxygen content and corrosion resistance to process parameters including fuel flow rate, oxygen flow rate and stand-off distance have been developed. A corrosion test cell has been designed and a procedure determined for studying the corrosion behaviour of large numbers of thermally sprayed coatings in an efficient manner. A significant improvement to the corrosion resistance of HVOF sprayed coatings has been achieved by spraying parameter optimisation and investigation of powder size and distribution. The project has also investigated the influence of spray angle on coating performance with a view to future onsite application. Coating materials tested and compared include nickel alloys Hastelloy C276 and 59, cobalt alloy Ultimet, duplex stainless steel S32750 and an experimental iron-based spray-fuse composition.

The aim of this research was to optimize the mechanically activated synthesis (MAS) technology of the Cr3C2-Ni powder intended for thermal spraying. The MAS production route included ball milling for 72 h (ball-to-powder ratio 20:1) and sintering under 1075 °C in vacuum for 4 h. Sintered compact was crushed, classified by sieving to obtain the fraction suitable for thermal spraying (20–45 μm). The morphology and the phase composition of the powder were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The optimal Cr:C ratio found was 7:1. The powder had an equiaxial or a slightly elongated lamellar shape, Cr3C2 carbides in a single powder particle had an elongated shape. The principal phases in the optimized powder were Cr3C2, Cr7C3 and Ni (Cr) solid solution. Coatings from the manufactured powder were produced by the high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spraying. The abrasive wear tests were carried out according to standard ASTM G65. The wear tests showed that the sprayed coatings from the experimental powder exhibited about five times higher wear rate at abrasive wear conditions than the coatings from the reference commercial powder.

Hot corrosion is the main reason of failure of boiler tubes used at high temperature in thermal power plants. This paper is an attempt to investigate the effect of different composite coatings on boiler tube steel in corrosive environment of Na2SO4 – 60%V2O5 at 900°C for 50 cycles. The coatings have been deposited with high velocity oxy fuel process. The samples were exposed to hot corrosion in a Silicon tube furnace at 900°C for 50 cycles. The kinetics of corrosion behaviour were analysed by the weight gain measurements after each cycle. Corrosion products were analysed with weight change statistics, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. It is found that 100Cr3C2 composite coatings provided the higher resistance to corrosion as compared to other types of coatings. Cr carbide layer was formed on the surface and these layers provided the protection from hot corrosion.

Spraying Process

We have developed an improved HVOF spray process called “Gas-shrouded HVOF” (GS-HVOF) over the past several years. By using an extension nozzle at the exit of a commercial HVOF spray gun, GS-HVOF is capable of controlling the oxidation of sprayed materials during flight as well as achieving higher velocity of sprayed particles. These features result in extremely dense and clean microstructure of the sprayed coatings. The process has been successfully applied to corrosion resistant alloys such as SUS316L, Hastelloy C, and alloy 625 as well as cermets such as WC-Cr3C2-Ni. The spray process, coatings microstructure and property evaluation will be discussed with potential industrial applications in the near future.

Abstract Chromium carbide-nickel chromium coatings produced by HVOF spraying are widely used for high temperature wear and erosion resistant applications. Examination of the literature shows that whilst the mechanical properties of these coatings have been widely investigated, there has been little research into the physical processes occurring during HVOF spraying of this system, such as carbide dissolution, liquid-metallic phase oxidation, decarburisation and rapid solidification. The purpose of the present work has been to perform a systematic characterisation of the chromium carbide-nickel chromium system in both the initial powder and as-sprayed states with a variety of spraying conditions using optical, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, electron microprobe and X-ray diffraction. The presence of amorphous and nanocrystalline phases has been demonstrated. The nanocrystalline structures tend to be Ni rich, with the amorphous phases rich in Cr. Carbides of the form Cr3C2 were found to be dissolved slightly during spraying, increasing the Cr and C contents of the liquid metallic phase. There was no evidence of chromium carbide oxidation.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the hot corrosion behavior of Ni-Cr and Cr3C2-NiCr coatings, deposited on T11, P91 boiler steels by detonation gun spray coating (D-Gun) process to enhance high temperature corrosion resistance. Design/methodology/approach Hot corrosion studies were conducted in secondary super heater zone of boiler at 900 °C for 10 cycles on bare and D-Gun coated steel specimens. The microhardness and porosity values of as-sprayed coatings were measured before exposing the specimens in the boiler environment. Each cycle consisted 100 h of heating in the boiler environment followed by 20 min of cooling in air. The weight change measurements were performed after each cycle to establish the kinetics of corrosion using thermogravimetric technique. X-ray diffraction, SEM techniques were used to analyze the corroded specimens. Findings Uncoated boiler steel experienced higher weight loss. The Cr3C2-NiCr coating was found to be more protective than Ni-Cr coating. The phases revealed the formation of oxide scale on coated specimens, mainly consist of nickel and chromium, which are reported to be protective against the hot corrosion. Originality/value There is very limited reported literature on hot corrosion behavior of Ni-Cr and Cr3C2-NiCr coatings deposited on the T11 and P91 substrates by detonation gun (D-gun) spray technique. T11 and P91 alloy steels have been chosen for this study because these two alloys are used to manufacture boiler tubes used in Indian thermal power plants.

Much research on magnesium (Mg) emphasises creating good corrosion resistance of magnesium, due to its high reactivity in most environments. In this study, powder metallurgy (PM) technique is used to produce Mg samples with a variation of aluminium (Al) composition. The effect of aluminium composition on the microstructure development, including the phase analysis was characterised by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The mechanical property of Mg sample was performed through Vickers microhardness. The results showed that the addition of aluminium in the synthesised Mg sample formed distribution of Al-rich phases of Mg17Al12, with 50 wt.% of aluminium content in the Mg sample exhibited larger fraction and distribution of Al-rich phases as compared to the 20 wt.% and 10 wt.% of aluminium content. The microhardness values were also increased at 20 wt.% and 50 wt.% of aluminium content, comparable to the standard microhardness value of the annealed Mg. A similar trend in corrosion resistance of the Mg immersed in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution was observed. The corrosion behaviour was evaluated based on potentiodynamic polarisation behaviour. The corrosion current density, icorr, is observed to decrease with the increase of Al composition in the Mg sample, corresponding to the increase in corrosion resistance due to the formation of aluminium oxide layer on the Al-rich surface that acted as the corrosion barrier. Overall, the inclusion of aluminium in this study demonstrates the promising development of high corrosion resistant Mg alloys.
