Influence of spray distance on mechanical and tribological properties of HVOF sprayed WC-Co-Cr coatings

Influence of spray distance on mechanical and tribological properties of HVOF sprayed WC-Co-Cr... AbstractIn this work, the tungsten carbide reinforcement in cobalt matrix (WC-Co-Cr) coatings was studied. The deposition process was carried out by high-velocity oxy-fuel spraying (HVOF). The study aimed to investigate the influence of one of the key process parameters, namely spray distance, on the coatings’ microstructure and phase composition, as well as their mechanical and tribological properties. The manufactured coatings were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), instrumented indentation test, pull-off adhesion test and ball-on-disc method. The results revealed that selection of proper spray distance caused a high index of carbide retention (ICR) amounting to 0.95, which promoted higher hardness and better wear resistance. Instrumental microhardness was in the range of 14.2–14.8 GPa, whereas the Young modulus exhibited values from 336 GPa up to 342 GPa. The bond strength of deposited coatings was in the range of 55–65 MPa. Wear factor values were in the range of 73–81 × 10−7 mm3/(N · m) and the friction coefficient was about 0.4. The dominant wear mechanism is abrasion and adhesive mode supported by the fatigue-induced material delamination. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Materials Science-Poland de Gruyter
