Item Influence of microwave hybrid heating on the sliding wear behaviour of HVOF sprayed CoMoCrSi coating(Institute of Physics Publishing helen.craven@iop.org, 2018) Prasad, C.D.; Joladarashi, S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Srinath, M.S.; Channabasappa, B.H.CoMoCrSi superalloy powder (Tribaloy-T400) consists of intermetallic laves phase and primary eutectic phase of Co-rich solid solution. Processing of Tribaloy-T400 powder is carried out through high-energy ball milling (HEBM) technique to obtain a higher volume fraction of intermetallic laves phases. The feedstock is sprayed using high-velocity-oxy-fuel (HVOF) process on titanium grade-15 substrate. The coating microstructure is homogenized by microwave hybrid heating technique. Characterization of feedstock, as-sprayed and microwave fused coatings is done by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and x-ray Diffraction (XRD). Porosity, surface roughness, microhardness, and bond strength are measured. Adhesive wear behavior of the coatings under the dry sliding condition is evaluated at an applied load of l0 and 20 N and temperature of 200, 400 and 600 °C Fused coating exhibit higher wear resistance than the as-sprayed coatings and substrate. The hard intermetallic laves phases which are amorphous (bulk metallic glass) in nature strengthen the coating at high temperatures. © 2018 IOP Publishing Ltd.Item Microstructure and tribological behavior of flame sprayed and microwave fused CoMoCrSi/CoMoCrSi-Cr3C2 coatings(Institute of Physics Publishing helen.craven@iop.org, 2019) Prasad, C.D.; Joladarashi, S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Srinath, M.S.; Channabasappa, B.H.This present work deals with the investigation of dry sliding wear behavior of CoMoCrSi and CoMoCrSi-Cr3C2 depositing on titanium substrate through Flame spray process, subsequently fused by the microwave hybrid heating process. Prior to the deposition of the coating, CoMoCrSi powder is milled by using high energy ball milling (HEBM) process and later 30% of Cr3C2 powder is added. Microstructural features and phase analysis of milled powders, as-coated and microwave fused coatings are inspected by using SEM with EDS and XRD process respectively. The coatings before and after fusing are tested for microhardness and bond strength by using a Vickers microhardness and universal tensile machines respectively. Dry sliding wear behavior of coatings before and after fusing is conducted against alumina counter face at ambient and elevated temperatures, also normal load is varied. The wear mechanism of both coatings is examined by employing XRD, SEM-EDS techniques. The fused coatings exhibit lower friction and better wear resistance compared with as-deposited coatings. The detailed results of each test of their coatings are discussed in this paper. © 2018 IOP Publishing Ltd.Item Comparison of Microstructural and Sliding Wear Resistance of HVOF Coated and Microwave Treated CoMoCrSi-WC + CrC + Ni and CoMoCrSi-WC + 12Co Composite Coatings Deposited on Titanium Substrate(Springer Science and Business Media B.V. editorial@springerplus.com, 2020) Prasad, C.D.; Joladarashi, S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Srinath, M.S.; Channabasappa, B.H.CoMoCrSi-WC + CrC + Ni and CoMoCrSi-WC + 12Co composite coatings are coated on titanium substrate by high velocity oxygen fuel method (HVOF). Prior to spraying, CoMoCrSi feedstock are processed through high energy ball milling (HEBM) in order improve the intermetallic laves phases and to reduce its particle size. The processed feedstock exhibits amorphous nature by improving laves phases and particle size of 60.12 ?m. Microwave heating energy is utilized as post heat treatment technique to improve the mechanical and metallurgical properties of as-sprayed coatings. Fused coatings reveals better properties in terms of surface roughness, porosity, microhardness and adhesion strength compared to as-sprayed coatings. Metallurgical bonding is observed in case of fused coatings due to diffusion of substrate elements. Frictional and wear behaviors have been investigated by a pin on disc apparatus at temperatures of 200 °C, 400 °C, and 600 °C under normal loads of 10 N and 20 N. Both wear trace and friction coefficients of the fused coatings are smaller than as-sprayed coatings and substrate at all test temperatures. The wear traces of fused coatings decreased with increasing the surface temperature due to the lubricant effect of cobalt oxides formed on the sliding surface. As a result, cobalt based cermet coatings are highly recommended as a durability improvement coating for the protection of sliding surface, such as high speed spindle. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.Item Microstructural and Tribological Resistance of Flame-Sprayed CoMoCrSi/WC-CrC-Ni and CoMoCrSi/WC-12Co Composite Coatings Remelted by Microwave Energy(Springer, 2020) Prasad, C.; Joladarashi, S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Srinath, M.S.The hard facing composite coatings such as CoMoCrSi/30%WC-CrC-Ni and CoMoCrSi/30%WC-12Co are coated on grade-2 titanium substrate through Flame spray technique. Prior to deposition of coatings CoMoCrSi feedstock were processed using high energy ball milling to obtain intermetallic laves phases. The sprayed coatings are subjected to post-heat treatment through microwave energy to homogenize coating structure which reduces surface defects and to achieve metallurgical bonding. The as-sprayed and microwave treated coatings are examined for metallography analysis by using XRD, SEM–EDS and mechanical properties are estimated by using microhardness, universal tensile equipment. The high-temperature sliding wear tests are performed against alumina counterpart under dry conditions. The sliding wear test is conducted with normal loads of 10 N and 20 N at a sliding velocity of 1.5 m/s with a constant sliding distance of 3000 m. Microwave treated coatings obtained homogeneous structure and metallurgical bonding with improved hardness. Fused coatings revealed better wear resistance due to formation of oxides and fatigue spalling mechanism. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Item Development of Self-lubricating Nickel Based Composite Clad using Microwave Heating in Improving Resistance to Wear at Elevated Temperatures(Korean Institute of Metals and Materials, 2022) Gudala, S.; Ramesh, M.R.; Srinath, M.S.This paper reports on a study of the high-temperature tribological performance of self-lubricating nickel-based composite clad. A porous and crack free clad containing matrix, reinforcement, and lubricant phase is developed on titanium 31 alloy using microwave irradiation. The microstructure of both NiCrSiB/WC and NiCrSiB/WC/Ag/BaF2 clad revealed very good metallurgical bonding with the substrate. The average microhardness of NiCrSiB/WC and NiCrSiB/WC/Ag/BaF2 clad is 710.58 HV and 650.25 HV respectively, is comparatively higher than the titanium 31 substrate (320 HV). The addition of Ag and BaF2 solid lubricants in the clad endowing clad to operate at a broad temperature range. Compared with the NiCrSiB/WC clad, solid lubricant encapsulate clad has shown very low friction coefficient and wear rates. The sliding wear characteristics of the clad were investigated by varying load and temperatures. The results revealed that oxide phases (NiO and Cr3O) and lubricant phases (Ag and BaWO4) formed at low and high temperatures are adequate to reduce delamination and material loss.
