    Microstructure and Adhesion Strength of Ni3Ti Coating Prepared by Mechanical Alloying and HVOF
    (Pleiades Publishing compmg@maik.ru, 2018) Reddy, N.C.; Ajay Kumar, B.S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Koppad, P.G.
    In the present work we report the development of Ni3Ti intermetallic compound by high energy ball milling of Ni and Ti powders. The ball milled powders were taken at various intervals (4, 6, 8, 10, and 11 h) to analyze the formation of NixTix intermetallic compounds. The ball milled powders were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The layered shaped powder particles of Ni3Ti phase were formed after 11 h of ball milling, which was confirmed by X-ray peaks. Further High-Velocity Oxy-Fuel (HVOF) process was used to coat Ni3Ti and Ni3Ti + (Cr3C2 + 20NiCr) on MDN 420 steel. Both the coated materials displayed excellent cohesion with minimal porosity less than 2%. The tensile adhesion strength test was carried out on these coatings to check the bond strength. Out of the two the Ni3Ti coating showed excellent bond strength of 41.04 MPa compared to that of Ni3Ti + (Cr3C2 + 20NiCr) coating. © 2018, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

    Effect of carbon nanotubes on microhardness and adhesion strength of high-velocity oxy-fuel sprayed NiCr–Cr3C2 coatings
    (SAGE Publications Ltd, 2022) Manjunatha, M.; Gaikwad, G.; Natarajan, J.; Koppad, P.G.
    NiCr–Cr3C2 coatings are widely used for high temperature and tribological applications due to their high hardness, oxidation, and wear resistance properties. In the present investigation, an attempt is made to further enhance the hardness and adhesion strength of NiCr–Cr3C2 coatings by reinforcing them with multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The carbon nanotubes (3–7 wt%) with varying weight percentages were mixed with NiCr–Cr3C2 using a planetary ball rolling mill and sprayed on SA213 T12 (T12 alloy steel tube) using a high-velocity oxy-fuel spraying process. The microstructures of mixed powder, coating cross-section, and fractured coating surface were characterized using a scanning electron microscope while X-ray diffraction was used for phase identification in the fractured coating surface. The coated samples were subjected to microhardness and adhesion strength tests according to ASTM E384 and ASTM D4541-09 standards. Out of all coatings, NiCr–Cr3C2/7% carbon nanotube composite coating showed the lowest porosity of 1.17%, highest microhardness, and adhesion strength of 563.8 HV and 55.8 MPa, respectively. A fracture analysis after a pull-off adhesion test revealed adhesion failure for NiCr–Cr3C2 coating and combined adhesion/cohesion failure for NiCr–Cr3C2/7% carbon nanotube composite coating. © IMechE 2021.
