    INVESTIGATION OF STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF THERMAL COATINGS OF WC—Co—Cr SYSTEM PRODUCED BY HIGH-VELOCITY METHODS OF SPRAYING Yu.S. BORISOV, E.A. ASTAKHOV, A.P. MURASHOV, A.P. GRISHCHENKO, N.V. VIGILYANSKAYA and M.V. KOLOMYTSEV E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute, NASU 11 Bozhenko Str., 03680, Kiev, Ukraine. E-mail: [email protected] Spraying of coatings of WC—9Co—4Cr powder was performed by high-velocity procedures of thermal spraying, using the methods of detonation, supersonic air-gas plasma (SAGP) and oxy-fuel HVOF spraying. Microstructure and properties of produced coatings were investigated. Analysis of results of the coating structure examination showed that during spraying with these methods the dense coatings are formed, consisting of inclusions of tungsten carbide, uniformly distributed in Co—Cr matrix. Porosity of coatings is less than 1 %. Microhardness of SAGP- and HVOF-sprayed coatings is 11.0—11.7 GPa. As to the values of microhardness these coatings are superior to those of the galvanic chromium (10 GPa). Microhardness of the detonation coating is 8.5 GPa. The cause of decrease in hardness of the detonation coating is a partial loss of carbon and appearance of oxide inclusions in it, that is caused by the oxidizing medium of the detonation products. By the complex of characteristics of hardness, adhesion strength (more than 50 MPa) and porosity the coatings of WC—9Co—4Cr system, sprayed by SAGP and HVOF methods, are advantageous as compared with the galvanic chrome-plating. Among the investigated methods of high-velocity thermal spraying of coatings of WC—9Co—4Cr system the SAGP method is characterized by the highest efficiency (15 kg/h).

The experimental work included deposition of Al2O3-TiO2 and Ni-Cr overlays of around 400 micron coating thickness, so as to achieve appropriate adhesion strength and hardness by using detonation gun spray technique (DS). Characterization of samples was made for further studies viz. as sprayed condition & post coating treatment. One of the hardfaced samples was subjected to post spray treatments of nitriding and compaction heat-treatment at 565° C for 2.5 hours and allowed to furnace cool, while another set of samples of both types of coatings was subjected to compaction at 12kN for 15 minutes. Systematic microstructural characterization of the coatings in the as-sprayed, nitrided conditions were carried out which included microhardness techniques in order to understand the effect of post treatment on the microstructure of these coatings. It is found that the microhardness values of base metal are enhanced almost three times after hardfacing/coatings with the Al2O3-TiO2 & Ni-Cr, using DS, which further enhanced after post treatment of nitriding and compaction.

  • Application Notes Metallographic Preparation of Thermal Spray Coatings
    Metallographic preparation of thermal spray coatings Application Notes Thermal spraying was invented in the early 1900s using zinc for „metallizing” substrates for corrosion protection. The development of the plasma spray gun in the late 50s and 60s made it commercially viable to use high temperature materials such as ceramics and refractory metals for coating materials. In addition to fl ame and plasma spraying, today thermal spray methods include high velocity and detona- tion spraying using a multitude of different spray materials for the most diverse and demanding applications.

This paper is devoted to the characterization of the WC–10Co–4Cr (wt.%) coating deposited on an Al–4Cu–1Mg (wt.%) alloy by the detonation spray method. In comparison with the common thermal spray techniques like High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) or Atmospheric Plasma Spraying (APS), the heat input delivered to the substrate during detonation spray is significantly lower, that is especially important in case of coating deposition on aluminum alloys.

The variable deposition parameters were the nature of the carrier gas, the spraying distance, the O2/C2H2 ratio, and the volume of the explosive mixture. The phase composition of the coatings and the influence of the spraying parameters on the mechanical properties of the coatings were investigated. In addition, nanohardness of the individual phases contained in the coatings was evaluated. It was found that the composition of the strengthening phases in the coatings depends on the O2/C2H2 ratio and the nature of the carrier gas.

It was determined that reducing the delay time between shots is leading to increase the hardness and elastic module of Al 2 O 3 coatings. It was found on the basis of X-ray diffraction analysis that the main reason for the increasing in hardness with a decreasing in the delay time between shots is associated with increasing in the volume fraction of α -Al 2 O 3 phase. The studies of X-ray diffraction presented that the highest content of the phase is achieved when the coatings are formed with a delay time between shots of 0.25 s. It was found that increasing in the volume fraction of the α -Al 2 O 3 phase is caused by the secondary recrystallization γ → α , which occurs due to the heating of particles during ◦ coating formation, i.e. due to increasing in temperature above 1100 C in single spots of the coating when they are put each other.

Structure and properties of the coatings formed by detonation spraying of titanium powder have been studied at varying the deposition parameters (nature of carrier gas, spraying distance, O2/C2H2 ratio, and the volume of explosive mixture). It is shown that when air is used as the carrier gas the primary strengthening by the titanium oxide phases is realized. When nitrogen is introduced into the explosive mixture, a more complicated mechanism of hardening is realized due to the formation of titanium oxides, carbides, oxynitrides and carbonitrides. The aspects of employing the revealed “rational” modes of the detonation spraying for formation of protective composite coatings based on titanium possessing a complex of improved physical and mechanical properties are discussed. 1. Introduction At present, several coating deposition methods are known and widely used in the industry. One of the efficient technologies for restoration, repair and strengthening of machine parts is cold gas-dynamic spraying.
