Stellite 6 was fabricated by laser cladding on a 1050 steel (MS) substrate with laser powers of 1 kW (MS-1) and 1.8 kW (MS-1.8). The chemical compositions and microstructures of the coatings were analysed by X-Ray Fluoroscense, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The microhardness of the coatings was examined and the wear mechanism of the coatings was evaluated using a ball-on-plate wear testing machine. The results indicated less cracking and pore development for Stellite 6 coatings applied to the 1050 steel substrate with the lower laser power (MS-1). Moreover, the Stellite coating for MS-1 was significantly harder than that obtained for MS-1.8. The wear test results showed that the weight loss for MS-1 was much lower than for MS-1.8. The evaluations of dilution and calculation of carbon content indicated that MS-1 has lower dilution and higher coating C content than MS-1.8. It is concluded that the lower hardness of the coating for MS-1.8, substantially reduced the wear resistance of the Stellite 6 coating and the lower hardness of the coating for MS-1.8 was due to higher level of dilution and lower coating C content. The coating-substrate couple must be considered in assessing the likely performance of the coating under service conditions.

Stellite 6 was deposited by laser cladding on a P22 steel substrate with energy inputs of 1 kW (P22-1) and 1.8 kW (P22-1.8). The chemical compositions and microstructures of these coatings were characterized by atomic absorption spectroscopy, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The microhardness of the coatings was measured and the wear mechanism of the coatings was examined using a pin-on-plate (reciprocating) wear testing machine. The results showed less cracking and pore development for Stellite 6 coatings applied to the P22 steel substrate with the lower heat input (P22-1). Further, the Stellite coating for P22-1 was significantly harder than that obtained for P22-1.8. The wear test results showed that the weight loss for P22-1 was much lower than for P22-1.8. It is concluded that the lower hardness of the coating for P22-1.8, markedly reduced the wear resistance of the Stellite 6 coating.

The microhardness of the coatings was measured and the wear mechanism of the coatings was examined using a pin-on-plate (reciprocating) wear testing machine. The results showed less cracking and pore development for Stellite 6 coatings applied to the nickel superalloy substrate with the lower heat input (NIS 1). Further, the Stellite coating for NIS 1 was significantly harder than that obtained for NIS 1.8. The wear test results showed that the weight loss for NIS 1 was much lower than for NIS 1.8.

Stellite 6 coatings were produced using laser cladding of two different steel substrates (martensitic and austenitic stainless steels). The chemical composition and microstructure of these coatings were characterized by atomic absorption spectroscopy, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The microhardness of the coatings was measured and the wear mechanism of the coatings was examined using a pin-on-plate (reciprocating) wear testing machine. The results showed less cracking and pore development for Stellite 6 coatings applied to the martensitic stainless steel (SS) substrate. The wear test results showed that the weight loss for the coating on martensitic SS was significantly lower than for the austenitic SS substrate. It is concluded that the higher hardness of the coating on the martensitic SS, together with the harder and more rigid substrate increase the wear resistance of the Stellite 6 coating.

Soft and hard FeCrNiSi alloy coatings were obtained on 30CrMo alloy steel surface by laser cladding. The phase constitution, microstructure, frictional wear behavior and corrosion resistance of the composite coating were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), three-dimensional non-contact surface mapping, friction and wear testing machine and electrochemical workstation, separately. XRD analysis showed that the cladding layer was mainly composed of Fe-based alloy composition, accompanied by a small amount of cobalt nickel alloy. There were massive protrusions in the interface of the soft sample, and the coating was regularly dendritic. Hard sample coating lines were cluttered, and there was no bulk deposition. Under the same wear condition, the soft coating exhibited serious abrasive wear, while the hard coating had slight abrasive wear behavior. The polarization curves in 3%NaCl solution revealed that the self-corrosion potential of the soft coating was positive shifted more than that the hard coating. The soft coating has better corrosion resistance than the hard coating.

This work presents wear study on maraging steel developed by additive manufacturing using Direct Metal Laser Sintering, utilizing a laser beam of high-power density for melting and fusing the metallic powders. Short aging treatment was given to the specimen prior to the wear tests. The density and the hardness of the 3D printed maraging steel were found to be better than the homogenized-aged 18Ni1900 maraging steel. The wear resistance is an important aspect that influences the functionality of the components. The wear tests in dry condition were performed on maraging steel on pin/disc standard wear testing machine. The design of experiments was planned and executed based on response surface methodology. This technique is employed to investigate three influencing and controlling constraints namely speed, load, and distance of sliding. It has been observed that sliding speed and normal load significantly affects the wear of the specimen. The statistical optimization confirms that the normal load, sliding distance, and speed are significant for reducing the wear rate. The confirmation test was conducted with a 95% confidence interval using optimal parameters for validation of wear test results. A mathematical model was developed to estimate the wear rate. The experimental results were matched with the projected values. The wear test parameters for minimum and maximum wear rate have been determined.

Summary Sealing is a technical bottleneck that affects drilling efficiency and cost in deep, difficult-to-drill formations. The spiral combination seal with active sand removal performance is a new type of seal, and the wear mechanism is not clear, resulting in no effective design. In this study, the wear properties of materials were measured by a friction-and-wear testing machine, and the measurement methods and criteria of wear loss and friction coefficient were established. The fitting function of working condition and friction coefficient was studied by fitting regression method. The law of influence of working conditions on friction coefficient and wear amount was determined. The actual wear model and evaluation criteria of wear condition were established by using wear test data and geometric relationship. The relationship among working conditions, contact stress, and wear depth is determined by numerical simulation method, and the wear mechanism of the new seal is revealed, which provides a theoretical basis for its application.

To improve the microstructure density of high-velocity arc spraying coating and enhance its adhesive strength and wear resistance, a plasma remelting investigation of the FeNiCrAl sprayed coating was carried out in this study. The microstructure and phase composition of the sprayed coating and the remelted coating were compared by using metalloscope, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffractometer. The microhardness distribution and friction wear characteristics of the plasma remelted FeNiCrAl sprayed coating were investigated by microhardness tester and CETR sliding friction wear testing machine. The results showed that the remelted coating has more compact microstructure and presents metallurgical bonding with the substrate. The generation of hard phases such as (Fe,Cr)7C3 and Cr23C6 as well as solid solution (Fe,Cr) increases the microhardness of the remelted coating significantly, about 1.4 times higher than that of the sprayed coating. According to sliding friction wear test, the abrasion losses of the sprayed coating under 10 N and 20 N loads are 4.6 and 10.5 times higher than those of the remelted coating, indicating the better wear resistance of the remelted coating.
