This paper describes the influence of post-spray heat treatment parameters on mechanical properties of Ni-TiC composite coatings. Thin Ni-TiC composite coatings were produced by low pressure cold gas dynamic process (also referred as cold spray or kinetic spray process) on an Inconel alloy substrate. In the coating process, mechanically mixed micron-sized Ni-TiC powders (~50 µm) were injected into a de-Laval nozzle propelled by a supersonic gas stream to high velocity (>300 m/s) to impinge upon a substrate. The coatings are formed subsequently as the metallic particles are severely deformed plastically and bonded to both the substrate and to one another. However the tensile adhesion strength levels were determined to be in the range of 10-14 MPa. A subsequent post-spray heat treatment in vacuum was found to enhance the bond strength of the coated particles with the substrate due to good metallurgical bonding caused by diffusion mechanism.
