Abstract
300M steel is one of most important aerial materials, which can be used for landing gear and flap & slat track. Some surface engineering technologies are needed to be adopted on its surface, because of its bad corrosion performance. WC10Co4Cr Coatings by high velocity oxygen-fuel spray processing (HVOF) is an environmental friendly method for this protection. In this paper, WC10Co4Cr coatings were prepared on 300M by optimized HVOF processing. And their corrosion performance has been estimated by neutral salt fog test, according with ASTM B117. The results indicate that the porosity gets larger and the hardness gets higher for the dissolution of bonding phases after the test. And for the optimized coatings, there are no corrosion products in the surface and interface between the coating and 300M steel, after 2000 hours ASTM B117 test. So the coatings have a good corrosion performance.
