This research examines the combination of a corrosion-resistant CoNiCrAlY binder with Cr 3 C 2 carbide particles. The powder was applied using two contrasting thermal conditions: low-energy HVOF and high-energy shrouded plasma spraying. This approach created a wide range of carbide dissolution and peritectic decomposition outcomes. The study includes detailed characterization of the feedstock powder composition to explain the phase formation during sintering compared to the original powder components.

for content titled, Development of Thermal Sprayed Silicon Carbide Coatings by an Innovative Suspension/Solution Precursors Approach
Carbides are interesting materials for many wear resistant and high temperature applications, however, the production of coatings with these materials represents a significant challenge as they tend to oxidise or decompose into gaseous phases when they are exposed to extreme thermal spray conditions. An innovative method merging suspension and solution precursors was developed to allow the production of carbide composite coatings. Suspensions of carbides and borides were modified with the addition of oxide precursors to obtain composite coatings by high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spray. The transformation of these oxides precursors and their subsequent melting during spraying contribute to protect the carbides from oxidising conditions, avoid their degradation during the spray process and support the development of dense coatings, as it was demonstrated by dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The relationships between processing and microstructure were studied in terms of porosity phase distribution and mechanical properties, proving that this novel approach could be applied to obtain coatings of materials that are prone to decompose during thermal spraying.

In this study, a novel self-healing concept is considered in order to increase the lifetime of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) in modern gas turbines. For that purpose, SiC healing particles were introduced to conventional 8YSZ topcoats by using various plasma spray concepts, i.e., composite or multilayered coatings. All topcoats were sprayed by SG-100 plasma torch on previously deposited NiCrAlY bondcoats produced by conventional atmospheric plasma spraying. Coatings were subjected to thermal conductivity measurements by laser flash method up to 1000°C, isothermal oxidation testing up to 200h at 1100°C and finally thermal cyclic fatigue (TCF) lifetime testing at 1100°C. Microstructural coating evaluation was performed by scanning electronic microscope (SEM), in the as-produced and post high-temperature tested states. This was done to analyze the self-healing phenomena and its influence on the high-temperature performance of the newly developed TBCs.

In this study, NbC coatings, 250 µm thick, were deposited by low-velocity flame spraying on stainless steel substrates and were laser remelted in a controlled argon atmosphere. Isolated passes transverse of the coatings were performed at different focal lengths at speeds of 10, 15, and 20 mm/min. Using the selected laser parameters, layers were recast with eight passes at 10% superposition. Erosion-corrosion tests were performed and coating surfaces and cross-sections were characterized via SEM, EDS, and XRD analysis. Modified surfaces of dense, 800-µm thick coatings with no defects and excellent metallurgical bonding with the substrate were obtained. It was found that dilution of the coating with the substrate formed a gradient of chemical composition and mechanical properties and that erosive-corrosive wear resistance was highest for an erodent impact angle of 90°.

This study assesses the microstructure and properties of SiC-based coatings deposited using liquid and gas-fueled HVOF spraying techniques and a recently developed SiC-YAG ceramic powder. The coatings are shown to be superior to plasma and high-frequency pulse deposition sprayed SiC in terms of density and microstructure and comparable in terms of adhesion values. SEM and EDX analysis of the coatings shows that hard SiC particles are retained in a YAG binder, forming a composite that exhibits good sliding wear and erosion behaviors. Due to its low density (< 4 g/cm 3 ), the SiC composite may be an alternative to coating materials such as WC-CoCr and Cr 3 C 2 -NiCr in weight-sensitive applications.

In this work, silicon carbide coatings were fabricated by plasma spray-vapor deposition in order to study the effect of plasma gas mixtures on coating microstructure and phase composition. Coatings deposited by Ar-H 2 plasma gas were found to contain a composite phase of SiC and Si. Moreover, the content of Si increased with increasing H 2 content in the gas. The deposition of Si is possibly due to the reaction of C and hydrogen species in the plasma jet, which would explain why pure SiC coatings were obtained when Ar-N 2 gas was used.

Presently one of the most important tendencies is the use of tungsten (W) monoblock material for the first wall and other plasma facing components (PFCs) in tokamak. The use of low Z materials such as B 4 C for protection of PFCs is a conventional method to decrease heavy impurity influx into tokamak plasma. This study involves the fabrication and characterization of inductively coupled plasma (ICP) thermal sprayed B 4 C coating on tungsten monoblock. Thickness of the coating was about 120μm. Surface morphology of the coating is presented with scanning electron microscope and metallographic microscope analyses. X-ray diffraction analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed that the main phase and chemical composition of the coatings were preserved when compared with that of the initial B 4 C powder. Adhesion test result revealed that the adhesion/cohesion strength of the coating was above 13.1 MPa. This work is innovative not only for the ICP thermal sprayed method for the B 4 C coating fabrication but for the plasma sprayed B 4 C on tungsten substrate.

for content titled, Aptitude of Different Types of Carbides for Production of Durable Rough Surfaces by Laser Dispersing
Different types of tungsten carbide materials (fused tungsten carbide, nickel clad fused tungsten carbide, macrocrystalline WC and sintered and crushed WC/Co) are used for laser dispersing of construction steel surfaces. Surface roughness analyses and metallographic evaluation of cross sections concerning efficiency of carbide embedding as well as crack formation tendency are carried out. Generally, all types of tested carbides permit production of rough surfaces with metallurgical bonding to the metallic matrix, but only use of nickel clad fused tungsten carbide permits to prevent crack formation. The effectiveness of silicon and silicon carbide for production of durable rough surfaces on aluminium alloys is investigated. Both silicon and silicon carbide qualify for production of rough surfaces by laser dispersing. While silicon carbide particles show higher hardness, use of silicon does not include danger of embrittlement due to formation of aluminium carbide.

SiC coatings were prepared with pack powder in different particle sizes in a vacuum atmosphere by pack cementation technique to protect the C/SiC composites substrate from oxidation. The phase and microstructure of the coatings were investigated by XRD, SEM analyses. The relationship between powder granularity in the pack and microstructure of SiC coatings was studied. Cyclic oxidation test at 1573K in air atmosphere was performed and the effect of powder particle size in the pack on high-temperature oxidation resistance of SiC coatings was discussed in detail. It is observed that with powder granularity in the pack increasing thickness and density of SiC coatings increases, corresponding oxidation resistance of the coating is improved. Possible mechanisms related to oxidation were preliminarily discussed.

In this work, SiC coatings varying in content were prepared on carbon-fiber-reinforced silicon-carbide composite (C/SiC) substrates in order to study the effect of free silicon on oxidation resistance. The coatings were formed in a vacuum atmosphere by means of pack cementation using a powder mixture ranging in content as follows: 20-50 wt% SiC, 20-60 wt% Si, 7-12 wt% graphite, and 6-10 wt% Al 2 O 3 . Coating surface and cross-sectional morphologies were examined using SEM, EDS, and semiquantitative XRD analysis and oxidation resistance was determined by cyclic oxidation testing in air at 1300 °C. The results show that cracks and voids decrease with increasing free silicon content and that coatings with an appropriate amount of free silicon have better oxidation resistance than those with no free silicon at all. However, further increases in silicon content were found to be detrimental to oxidation behavior for a number of reasons that are discussed.

B 4 C-Ni powders ranging in content from 5-60 wt% Ni were fabricated by pressurized hydrogen reduction and deposited on mild carbon steel substrates by air plasma spraying. The microstructure, morphology, and phase composition of the powders and coatings were evaluated by means of SEM and XRD analysis. The influence of Ni content on coating microstructure, fretting wear resistance, hardness, and adhesive strength was investigated in detail. The results show that Ni affects fretting wear resistance, which was found to be highest in the coating with 40 wt% nickel. The B 4 C-40Ni coating also proved superior in terms hardness, porosity, and friction coefficient, although its adhesive strength was the lowest.

This work deals with ZrB 2 -based coatings prepared by inert plasma spraying and their behavior under high heat flux in moist atmospheres. ZrB 2 coatings with different compositions and microstructures were produced and subjected to high-temperature oxidation testing in order to identify the most oxidation-resistant sample. It is shown that coating microstructure can significantly influence oxidation kinetics and that uniformly dispersed nanoscale additives are particularly effective for slowing oxidation.

This study evaluates the possibility of depositing hard B 4 C and TiC reinforcing particles in a Ni matrix using low-pressure cold spraying. It also investigates the effect of particle velocity and kinetic energy on deposition efficiency, microstructure, hardness, and wear resistance. B 4 C and TiC powders were blended at 50, 75, and 92 wt% carbide content with Ni powder comprising the remainder of the mixture. The impact velocity of sprayed carbide particles was calculated using a mathematical model based on the thermodynamics of compressible fluid flow through a converging-diverging nozzle. The model showed that the kinetic energy of TiC particles prior to impact was three times smaller than that of B 4 C, resulting in a higher carbide content (18 wt% compared to 8 wt%) due to reduced fracture and rebound of the TiC particles. Although the hardness values of both coatings are within the range of cold-sprayed WC-Co-Ni, wear rates were found to be high.

Novel synthesis of thermal spray grade silicon carbide (SiC) feedstock powder is necessary to allow deposition of this material using atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) method. SiC particles with average size of 1.0 µm are treated using co-precipitation techniques to deliver yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) binder from its solution precursor as a nano-film onto SiC particles surface. The YAG nano-film will protect SiC core from direct interaction with plasma jet thus hindering their decomposition as well as providing matrix phase within the SiC particles vicinities. The modified SiC particles are sintered and crushed and then sieved to separate 25-45 µm and 45-90 µm size powders, which are then plasma sprayed to deposit SiC coatings of about 300 µm in thickness. Both the feedstock and the coatings were analyzed and compared with regards to their phase composition and microstructures.

In this work, a low-temperature melting composition located within the glass-forming region of the Y 2 O 3 -Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 (YAS) system is proposed and tested as a protective coating for SiC ceramics. Glassy coatings 197 µm thick were obtained by flame spraying YAS granules on SiC substrates that had been grit blasted and coated with a Si bond layer. Bulk glasses of the same composition were also produced for use as a reference material. The hardness, elastic modulus, and thermal conductivity of the coatings and bulk specimens were evaluated and compared and the effect of heat treatment was investigated. Crystallization occurred in both the bulk glass and coating during isothermal treatments in air at 1100-1350 °C, but it did not compromise system integrity due to crack healing.

This work evaluates the potential of using a plasma spray process to introduce SiC into zirconia diboride ceramic coatings. Controlling the spraying of the ultra-refractory compound ZrB 2 is the first challenge as it represents the matrix in which SiC particles will reside. To that end, the experiments focus on spraying parameters that influence the plasma jet and the nature of the precursor feedstock. The results show that ZrB 2 coatings containing controlled amounts of SiC can be obtained through high-energy suspension plasma spraying. The ZrB 2 -SiC coatings will be evaluated in a high-temperature oxidative environment in future work.

To improve the mechanical properties of aluminum coatings, ceramic reinforcement may be added resulting in an aluminum matrix composite. Two processing routes were investigated to manufacture aluminum matrix composite powders for thermal spraying: ball milling and mixing. Three sizes of SiC reinforcement particles were used: 2, 15, and 25 µm. For the ball-milled powders, morphology and microstructure were investigated as a function of SiC grain size and milling time. It is shown that the hardness of the composite and the efficiency of the spray process depend on the size of the hard particles as well as the preparation method. Friction tests were also carried out and the results are shown to correlate with coating microstructure.

This paper describes how effective medium theory and fractal analysis are used to investigate nonlinear microstructure-property relationships in HVOF-sprayed composite coatings produced from nano Fe-(β-SiC/SiO 2 ) agglomerate powders in order to optimize microwave absorption performance. The powder used in the study was prepared by spray granulation and deposited on Fe substrates. The microstructure of the powder and coatings was examined by SEM, the phase structure was determined by XRD analysis, and electrical permittivity and permeability were measured. To simplify calculations, electromagnetic absorption phases in the coating were assumed to be periodically distributed cubes. The results of the study indicate that multi-fractal diffraction in the coating microstructure facilitates the absorption of microwaves and is optimized when the mass fraction of nano βSiC in the composite is 28 wt%.
