WC-Ni60 composite powders were mixed and deposited on Cr12MoV die steel by vacuum sintering technique. In order to prevent WC powders decomposition at the high temperature, Cr film was coated by D.C. magnetron sputtering and then prepared Cr/WC-Ni60 composite coating. The structure and composition and microhardness were measured by SEM and XRD and hardness tester. Tribological experiments were carried out on an abrasion machine. The results showed that thickness of Cr film is 3~5um. Some WC particles formed hard phases in nickel based solid solution to improve the hardness of the coatings. Due to Cr film preventing WC decomposition, Cr/WC-Ni coating had the higher hardness values compared with WC-Ni60 coating. The coating surface was uniform and compact and had no cracks. During the sliding wear, Cr/WC-Ni coating had a better wear resistance, and mass loss of wear was the least.

Wear-resistant Cu-based solid-solution-toughened Cr5Si3/CrSi metal silicide alloy with a microstructure consisting of predominantly the dual-phase primary dendrites with a Cr5Si3 core encapsulated by CrSi phase and a small amount of interdendritic Cu-based solid solution (Cuss) was designed and fabricated by the laser melting process using Cr–Si–Cu elemental powder blends as the precursor materials. The microstructure of the Cuss-toughened Cr5Si3/CrSi metal silicide alloy was characterized by optical microscopy, powder x-ray diffraction, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The Cuss-toughened silicide alloys have excellent wear resistance and low coefficient of friction under room temperature dry sliding wear test conditions with hardened 0.45% C carbon steel as the sliding–mating counterpart.

WC/Co; Composite coating; Plasma spraying; Friction and wear Abstract: WC- Co composite powders were synthesized by direct mechanical grinding in a rotary-vibration mill under 8h, and then analyzed by SEM and XRD. WC and WC/Co composite coatings were prepared by supersonic plasma spraying fine WC-Co composite powders. The wear and friction properties of both coatings were evaluated. The results showed that the wear resistance of the WC/Co composite coating was superior to that of the WC coating. The improvement in wear resistance of the WC/Co composite coating was attributed to its higher fracture toughness and adhesion strength as well as better thermal diffusivity. As for the WC/Co composite coating, the mechanism was mainly adhesion with micro-abrasion and fatigued-induced brittle fracture within splats, and the delamination along splat boundaries only occurred at high load. However, the failure of the WC coating was predominantly detachment of transferred film and brittle fracture within the splats and delamination along splat boundaries, which were enhanced with the increasing load.

The structure and properties of H13 steel treated by the QPQ Salt-bath treatment with different content of Rare Earth (RE) LaCO3 were studied. The surface of H13 steel was treated using this method. The microstructure and depth of the treated surface for the steel were analyzed using SEM. The sliding wear resistance was tested on the M-2000 tester and the micro-hardness was tested using 401MVA microscopy hardness tester. The results showed that the thickness and the wear resistance and the speed of nitriding was highly improved and the performance of nitriding layer and the nitriding structure was improved.

This study has been made to limit the sliding wear by employing advanced protective nano coatings by using DC magnetron sputtering Physical Vapour Deposition technique. Three advanced nano coatings viz. Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC), composite AlCrN coating and AlCrN/TiAlN multilayered coatings were selected for present work due to their enviable wear resistant characteristics. Coatings were deposited on AISI-D2 die steel by traditional DC magnetron sputtering physical vapour deposition technique. The as deposited coatings were characterized with surface roughness, microhardness, porosity and microstructure. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and field mission scanning electron microscope (FESEM with EDAX) techniques have been used to describe various phases established after coating deposited on the surface of the substrate. Subsequently, sliding wear and friction tests were conducted in accordance with ASTM standard G99-03, under scrutiny variation of load and time and at constant sliding speed. Cumulative wear volume loss and coefficient of friction were formulated for coated as well as uncoated/tempered specimen at a constant speed of 1 m/s and varying load of 25N and 50N. The results from experimentation were analysed with SEM micrographs and Energy dispersive spectrum to analyse the adaptability of coating for base materials, wear behaviour and friction behaviour of coated and uncoated/tempered substrates. The results have shown adaptability of advance nano-coatings for AISI D2 die steel. The generation of oxide layer during wear process provides wear resistance to the AlCrN-based coatings. No thermal instability has been observed in nano-coatings at low temperature generated while experimentation and that is under working range of cold forming processes. It is observed that there is relevant decrease in frictional force by the application of DLC coatings while AlCrN/TiAlN has provided much better wear resistance.

Aiming at the problem of poor high-temperature wear-resistance of rope clamp used in super-high speed elevators, the experiments of laser cladding to prepare carbide reinforced composite coating were made. nanoTiC powder, Ni-based alloy powder were used as cladding material. The microstructure and hardness of composite coating were tested by relevant equipments. The research results show that the composite coating is made up of TiC, Cr3C2, Fe3C and Fe-Ni-Cr-C HYPERLINK "javascript:void (0);" solid solution. When the content of TiC is 10%, 30%, the morphology of TiC is presented as dendrite-like and the morphology of HYPERLINK "javascript:void (0);" solid solution is presented as cellular-like. When the content of TiC is 50%, the morphology of TiC is presented as block-like, lath-like. There are some microcracks on grain boundaries. At the content of 30%, laser power 1.5KW, scanning speed 600mm/min, the laser cladding has no crack and hole. The average hardness of composite coating is 701HV0.2. Using this technology to the surface strengthening of elevator parts, the wear resistance and service life can be greatly improved.

Fe-28Al and Fe-28Al-10Ti alloys were prepared by mechanical alloying and hot pressed sintering. The mechanical properties and wear resistance were studied. The results show that Fe-28Al bulk material is mainly characterized by the low ordered B2 Fe3Al structure with some dispersed Al2O3 particles. The mechanical properties such as the hardness and strength of Fe-28Al-10Ti are significantly improved compared with Fe-28Al, which is attributed to the grain refinement and solid solution reinforcing with the addition of Ti element. The fracture mode is mainly the intergranular fracture. Fe-28Al-10Ti exhibits more excellent wear resistance than Fe-28Al, especially after long distance sliding wear test. There is difference in wear mechanisms of Fe-28Al and Fe-28Al-10Ti alloys. Under the load of 100N, there is obvious plastic deformation on the worn surface of Fe-28Al. Micro-crack and layer splitting occur on the surface of Fe-28Al. The main wear performance of Fe-28Al-10Ti is particle abrasion, the characteristics of which are micro cutting and micro furrows.
