    The influence of microwave sintering on the tribological performance of powder metallurgy based aluminum cenospheres composites
    (Trans Tech Publications Ltd ttp@transtec.ch, 2015) Ananda Kumar, M.G.; Seetharamu, S.; Sampath Kumaran, P.; Nayak, J.
    The Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) especially Aluminum based systems have unique advantages of having superior mechanical, chemical and electrical properties, in addition to light weight and high stiffness. In this work, composites comprising of Aluminum with varied concentrations of Cenospheres as reinforcement was produced by Powder Metallurgy (PM) route. The densification of the composites was effected both by conventional and Microwave (MW) sintering techniques. The microstructures of the sintered samples were observed through scanning electron microscope (SEM) and phases by x ray diffraction technique (XRD), followed by evaluation of tribological parameter namely slide wear behavior and solid particle erosion resistance. The densities and the Brinell hardness values for the samples were also evaluated. The results showed that microwave sintered samples exhibited higher hardness, lower erosion and slide wear loss. © (2015) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

    High temperature tribological studies of cold sprayed nickel based alloy on low carbon steels
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2019) Padmini, B.V.; Mathapati, M.; Niranjan, H.B.; Sampathkumaran, P.; Seetharamu, S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Mohan, N.
    The boiler steels of grades SAE213 T11 and T22, find extensive applications in heat exchanger tubes, paper and pulp, chemical industries and refineries. Further, these steels are also used in shafts, cylinders, bearings, and in automotive transmission parts and these aspects are less explored. They experience low wear life in specific components, both at room and slightly higher temperature regimes. In order to protect them from these damages, coatings are deployed involving many techniques like HVOF, Plasma spray, Cold spray etc. so that the life of the components get extended. In cold spray coatings, the powders are fed at very high impact velocities of up to 1200 m/s on the substrate and undergo plastic deformation during the impact. There is no oxidation of the powder takes place during the process, as the coating is done at very less temperature and this is one of the lead characteristic of cold spray technique. This particular work mainly focuses on evaluating the tribological behaviour of nickel based super alloy powder on T11 and T22 low alloy steels by cold spray method, using pin on disc machine both at room temperature as well as at 200, 300 and 400 °C. The associated tests such as hardness, porosity, and microstructure have been undertaken to support the wear data. The wear damage assessment has been carried out using scanning electron microscope to arrive at the mechanism and also to give credence to the wear data. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd.
