A growing understanding of wear behavior of various thermally sprayed ceramic–metallic
matrix coatings has occurred over recent years. This has resulted from the continuous …

In this study, sliding and abrasion wear performance of WC-CoCr coatings deposited by
high velocity air–fuel (HVAF) spraying with various thicknesses (ie, 240, 150, 100, 50 and 30 …

In this study, effect of feedstock particle size and nozzle configuration on deposition,
microstructural features, hardness and sliding wear behaviour of high velocity air fuel …

In this study, 86WC-10Co-4Cr powder was thermally sprayed onto cast 21-4N steel using
High Velocity Air-Fuel (HVAF) technology. The deposited coating exhibited a dense …

Leading edge erosion (LEE), which often begins near the blade's tip, is one of the most
important degradation processes that affect gas turbine blade. Optimizing blade …

Silt erosion causes big efficiency and economic losses to hydro turbines and other industries
involving the relative motion of the slurry/silt. This article reviews various techniques …

Homogeneous coatings cannot meet the overall erosion-resistance requirements for an
entire blade since materials present different erosion resistances at various impact angles …

Sažetak High-velocity air fuel (HVAF) coating processes have advantages over conventional
high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) processes, resulting in coatings with superior properties …

High-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spray cermet coatings have shown good resistance to
erosion-corrosion. High level of porosity on the coating surface hinders the erosion …

Tungsten forms with carbon several chemical compounds (see also section C–W in Table I-
2.13): tungsten monocarbide δ-WC1±x phase (hexagonal structured), having almost …
