    High-temperature wear and frictional behavior of partially oxidized Al with NiCr composite coating
    (Institute of Physics Publishing helen.craven@iop.org, 2019) Medabalimi, S.R.; Ramesh, M.R.; Kadoli, R.
    The influence of composite coating in improving wear and frictional behavior from room temperature to 600 °C was investigated. Partially oxidized Al powder was prepared with a flame spray process by spraying pure Al powder into distilled water. The composite powder is the mixture of 30 weight percent of partially oxidized Al and 70 weight percent of NiCr alloy powder. The composite powder was subsequently coated on MDN321 steel by air plasma spray process. The composite coatings are characterized with respect to adhesion strength, porosity, micro-hardness, and density. Wear and frictional behavior of coatings are evaluated under disc speed of 1 and 2 m s-1, loads of 10, 20 and 30 N and 3000 m sliding distance. The test results indicated that at room temperature, frictional heat generated due to applied load produce three-body abrasion at the interface caused to increase the wear and friction in the coating. The oxide film formed at high temperature due to plastic deformation avoids surface degradation at the interface and reduce the wear and friction. The worn surfaces at 600 °C consist phases of ?-Al2O3, NiO, and Cr3O. These phases are contributing to improving the wear resistance of the coating more than 4-times compared to uncoated steels under varying load and sliding velocities. The coefficient of friction reduced with increase in temperature due to generated oxides act as lubricants at the interface. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Developing partially oxidized NiCr coatings using the combined flame spray and plasma spray process for improved wear behaviour at high temperature
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2021) Medabalimi, S.R.; Ramesh, M.R.; Kadoli, R.
    The powders of NiCrBSiFe and NiCr are partially oxidized using a flame spray process and are deposited on MDN321 steel substrate using a plasma spray process. The effect of partial oxidization on microstructure, microhardness, density, bond strength, and porosity of the coatings is analyzed. The friction and wear behaviour of the coatings was assessed using a pin-on-disc tribometer by varying loads (10, 20 and 30 N), sliding velocities (1, 2 m/s) and temperatures (RT, 200, 400 and 600 °C). Worn surfaces of NiCrBSiFe and NiCr coatings consist of oxide phases of SiO2, NiO, Cr2O3 and NiCr2O4 at elevated temperatures. These phases contributed to reducing the wear rate by five folds in coated steels compared to uncoated steels at 600 °C. The wear rate in coating decreases with an increase in temperature. The coefficient of friction was reduced gradually with the temperature in coatings and substrate. The wear rate coefficient of NiCr coating was 1.7 times higher than the NiCrBSiFe coating. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
