Aluminum bronze powders with free and 0.1wt%Ce were plasma spray welded on 45# carbon steel substrate, Effects of rare earth Ce on the microstructure and wear resistance of plasma spray welded novel aluminum bronze coatings were investigated. Tribological properties of coatings were tested on reciprocating sliding tester. Results showed that a small amount of Ce (0.1wt %) in novel aluminum bronze coating can refine the coating microstructure and the coating with 0.1wt%Ce process higher wear resistance compared to the Ce-free coating. Both of the coatings have different wear mechanisms.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the wear performance of carbon steel cladded with TiC powders by gas tungsten arc welding method. Because of poor wear resistance, carbon steels have limited industrial applications as tribological components. Design/methodology/approach – The cladding microstructures were characterized by optical microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer. The wear behavior of the clad layer was studied with a block-on-ring tribometer. Findings – The experimental results revealed that the metallurgical interface provided an excellent bond between the cladding and the carbon steel substrate. The cladding revealed no porosity or cracking, and particles were evenly distributed throughout the cladding layer. Hardness was increased from HRc 6.6 in the substrate to HRc 62 in the cladded layer due to the presence of the hard TiC phase. Originality/value – The experiments confirm that the cladding surfaces of TiC particles reduce wear rate and friction. Increasing TiC contents also improves hardness and wear resistance at room temperature and under dry sliding wear conditions.

Wear resistance of Al2O3-8wt.%TiO2 coatings plasma-sprayed using nanopowders was investigated. Four types of nanostructured Al2O3-8wt.%TiO2 powders were plasma-sprayed on a low-carbon steel substrate by using different critical plasma spray parameters (CPSP). The coatings consisted of completely melted and partially melted regions. The hardness of the coatings increased with increasing CPSP, while the wear resistance was the highest for the coating sprayed with the lowest CPSP. The main wear mechanism was a delamination mode in the coating sprayed with the high CPSP, but was changed to an abrasive mode in the coating sprayed with the low CPSP. According to this change in the wear mechanism, the wear resistance was the best in the coating sprayed with lowest CPSP, while its hardness was lowest.

AbstractNi-based alloy coatings prepared by laser cladding has high bonding strength, excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The mechanical properties of coatings can be further improved by changing the composition of alloy powders. This paper reviewed the improved microstructure and mechanical properties of Ni-based composite coatings by hard particles, single element and rare earth elements. The problems that need to be solved for the particle-reinforced nickel-based alloy coatings are pointed out. The prospects of the research are also discussed.

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.

In this work, a multiphase microstructure consisting of nanobainte, martensite, undissolved spherical carbide, and retained blocky austenite has been prepared in an Al-alloyed high carbon steel. The effect of the amount of nanobainite on the dry sliding wear behavior of the steel is studied using a pin-on-disc tester with loads ranging from 25–75 N. The results show that, there is no significant differences in specific wear rate (SWR) for samples with various amounts of nanobainite when the normal load is 25 N. While, the SWR firstly decreases and then increases with increasing the amount of nanobainite, and the optimum wear resistance is obtained for samples with 60 vol.% nanobainite, when the applied load increases to 50 and 75 N. The improved wear resistance is attributed to the peak hardness increment resulted from the transformation of retained austenite to martensite, work hardening, along with amorphization and nanocrystallization of the worn surface. In addition, the highest toughness of the samples with 60 vol.% nanobainite is also proven to play a positive role in resisting sliding wear. EDS (energy dispersion spectrum) and XRD (X-ray diffraction) examinations reveal that the predominant failure mechanism is oxidative wear.

Abstract This is part II of the two part paper based on international collaboration between the University of Limoges, France and the State University of New York, Stony Brook, USA, aimed at fundamental understanding the relationship between processing condition and microstructure development and properties of thermally sprayed materials. In this study, the effects of deposition temperature on the microstructure and properties development of molybdenum coating was investigated. It is found that with the increase of steel substrate temperature, the molybdenum splat morphology changes from fragmented to more contiguous disk-like shape. The splats on molybdenum substrate show predominantly disk shape. With the increase in deposition temperature, the coating exhibits better lamellar structure with less interlayer pores and debris. The fracture characteristics changes gradually from interlamellar to trans-lamellar and, thermal conductivity is enhanced. Higher deposition temperature improves dramatically the adhesion and bonding of the splats, therefore the physical and mechanical properties of coatings.

High quality TiN/Ti multi-layers have been successfully obtained on a carbon steel substrate by double glow plasma surface alloying technique (DGP). The TiN/Ti multi-layers consists of deposition layer and diffusion layer, and then on its surface TiN film (PVD) is deposited to form TiN/TiN/Ti compound multi-layers. In addition, studies were carried to compare TiN/Ti multi-layers, TiN/TiN/Ti compound multi-layers and TiN film (PVD) directly deposited on the surface of the carbon steel and their microhardness and dry friction-abrasion properties were also investigated. The results show that the thickness of TiN/Ti multi-permeated layers is above 10*m; Ti and N concentrations change gradually along the depth of alloying layer. TiN/Ti multi-layers and substrates are metallurgically bonded. Preferred orientation of TiN/Ti multi-layers is crystal surface (200). The hardness of the TiN/Ti multi-permeated layers ranges up 2200HV, its average friction coefficient is lower, abrasion crack is shallower and wear resistance better.

In the present study, 20 Wt. % ZrO2-Al2O3-17 wt.% TiO2 powders were sprayed using a plasma-spray technique after a NiAl bond layer was deposited on plain carbon steel substrate. The produced coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) including energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The tribological properties of coatings against hard alloy ball were investigated by using a pin-on-disc tribo-meter under dry environments. The predominant wear mechanism of coating is fatigue.

In this paper the nanostructured and conventional WC-12Co feedstock powders were thermally sprayed via high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) on the mild steel substrate. The influence of the feedstock powder type on the microstructure of coatings and abrasive wear resistance properties was studied. The correlation between the coating microstructure and the wear performance was investigated by analyzing the microstructure and worn surface morphology of the coatings. The results indicated that the nanostructured coating shows higher porosity, but slightly higher microhardness and better abrasive wear resistance than the conventional counterpart. Also, the two coatings have excellent abrasive wear resistance with respect to the substrate.
