Received: 11 June 2019; Accepted: 16 July 2019; Published: 23 July 2019 Abstract: Porosity in plasma-sprayed coatings is vital for most engineering applications. Porosity has its merits and demerits depending on the functionality of the coating and the immediate working environment. Consequently, the formation mechanisms and development of porosity have been extensively explored to find out modes of controlling porosity in plasma-sprayed coatings. In this work, a comprehensive review of porosity on plasma-sprayed coatings is established. The formation and development of porosity on plasma-sprayed coatings are governed by set spraying parameters. Optimized set spraying parameters have been used to achieve the most favorable coatings with minimum defects. Even with the optimized set spraying parameters, defects like porosity still occur. Here, we discuss other ways that can be used to control porosity in plasma-sprayed coating with emphasis to atmospheric plasma-sprayed chromium oxide coatings. Techniques like multilayer coatings, nanostructured coatings, doping with rare earth elements, laser surface re-melting and a combination of the above methods have been suggested in adjusting porosity.

    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. Thermal spray coatings are applied to a substrate to give a specifi c surface quali- ty, which it originally does not have.
