Abstract:
The performance of two distinct coating materials under alumina particle impingement was tested in this study. CrMnFeCoNi and WC-Ni coatings were applied to 2205 duplex stainless steel substrates using cold spray method with nitrogen as the process gas. In between the substrate and the high entropy alloy coating, an interlayer coating of 316 stainless steel was used. The presence of WC particles in the WC-Ni composite coatings was confirmed by SEM cross sectional inspection. Following deposition, the coatings were heat treated in an air furnace. The influence of heat treatment holding time on the WC-Ni coatings was studied using chemical analysis by X-ray diffraction. Heat treatments peak temperatures for the WC/Ni- Ni and high entropy alloy coatings were 600°C and 550°C, respectively. Coatings microhardness and porosity volume fraction were measured for all the samples. The HEA coating outperformed the WC/Ni-Ni hardness but exhibited a higher level of porosity. The coatings were then subjected to erosion experiments using alumina particles with variable impact angles (30°, 60°, and 90°). To compare the different materials, an average erosion value was calculated for each target specimen. The WC/Ni-Ni as-sprayed coating was the most effective against a 60° impingement angle. The HEA coating, on the other hand, demonstrated greater resistance to impact angles of 30° and 90°. SEM was utilized to examine the eroded areas and determine the main mechanisms of erosion.
