Sprayed Coatings

Partially amorphous iron-based coatings were produced onto aluminium using a powder flame-spraying process with a commercially available feedstock powder (Nanosteel SHS-7170) obtained from the Nanosteel Company Inc.. Several coating properties such as the microstructure, porosity, phase content, micro-hardness, and wear resistance were evaluated in the as-sprayed condition. As shown by the results obtained, the powder flame iron-based coatings perform relatively well in term of wear resistance in comparison with similar coatings produced using other expensive thermal spray techniques. Furthermore, this study shows that all the coating properties (microstructure, porosity, phase content, hardness and wear performance) depend strongly on the flame spraying parameters used. Finally, this paper demonstrates clearly that the flame-spray process may be used to produce amorphous iron-based coatings having a good wear resistance, and that this process appears to be a suitable inexpensive alternative to plasma or HVOF processes based on the present results.

The paper describes a study of adhesion strength of wear and corrosion resistant NiCrBSi coatings produced under different flame-spraying conditions on mild steel with 0.08 % carbon. Flame-sprayed coatings often show weak bonding strength to the substrate concerned; therefore, usability of a machine component treated in this way is limited only in case of lower mechanical loads on flame-spray coated parts, and at the same time it is subjected to wear and chemical influences. In order to measure adhesive strength of coatings, the standardized tensile adhesive test (TAT) was used. A Taguchi method was used to perform experiments and analyse results to find the most favourable combination of spraying parameters, i.e. surface roughness, preheat temperature, spraying distance, and type of oxy-acetylene flame, to provide a high-quality adhesive strenght with the substrate. Subsequent heat treatment of the NiCrBSi coating showed significant adhesion strength increase and improvement of microstructural properties.

Coating Properties

Presented in this article are the properties of flame sprayed ceramic coatings using oxide ceramic materials consisting of a powdered zirconium oxide (ZrO2) matrix with 30% calcium oxide (CaO) applied to unalloyed S235JR grade structural steel. A primer consisting of a metallic Ni-Al-Mo based powder has been applied to plates with dimensions of 5x200x300 mm and front surfaces of ø 40x50 mm cylinders. Flame spraying of primer coating was conducted using a RotoTec 80 torch, and an external surface was coated with a CastoDyn DS 8000 torch. Evaluation of the coating properties was conducted using metallographic testing, phase composition research, measurement of microhardness, abrasive wear resistance (acc. to ASTM G65 standard) and erosion wear resistance (acc. to ASTM G76-95 standard).

The indentation methods (HR15N, HV0.3, HIT, EIT) were used to evaluate differences between the WC-based coatings with 12, 17 and 25% of Co binder. The two sets of WC-12%Co coatings with two different sets of parameters were sprayed to evaluate the influence of spraying parameters. The measured mechanical characteristic were correlated to the to the wear resistance of the coatings evaluated by dry sand/rubber wheel test according to ASTM G-65 and pin-on disc according to ASTM G-99. The measured results showed that there is almost no difference between the abrasive wear resistance of WC-Co coating with 12 and 17% of Co binder, while the wear of coating with 25% of Co binder is significantly higher. The importance of the spraying parameters on the WC-12%Co coatings properties has been found to be comparable to the importance of binder content influence.

Study Results

This paper presents a study about polypropylene-pine wood composites, both as filaments and products, coated with aluminum (Al) or copper (Cu), obtained through flame thermal spray process after subjecting the composites to thermal treatments in the second and third step of the study. Results revealed that a previous aluminum layer was needed in order to obtain copper coatings on the composites. The physical and mechanical properties of both metal coated composite filaments were also evaluated and compared with the uncoated composite filaments with and without heat treating these. Consequently, it was observed that the nature of the coating adhesion on the substrates was mechanical, and therefore abrasion blasting of filaments or the use of a higher wood fiber content in the composite improved the Al or Cu adhesion. Also, it was observed that extruded wood fiber/PP filaments should not be cooled in water because pieces might be molded directly once the moisture affects the metal coatings adhesion onto the substrates.

Abstract This study assesses the quality of flame-sprayed alumina coatings produced from recently developed alumina cord using argon and compressed air as atomizing gases. Coatings of different thicknesses were deposited on aluminum substrates and then analyzed using optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and resistivity measurements. The coatings, particularly those sprayed with argon, had fine microstructure and higher surface and volume resistivity than flame-spray coatings made from alumina cord in the past. They were also found to have higher alpha phase content than plasma-sprayed coatings, regardless of the atomizing gas used. The effect of humidity and the possible formation of aluminum hydroxides are also addressed.
