HVOF spraying was used to prepare coatings from mechanical blends of Cr 3 C 2 -25NiCr and NiCrBSi powders. The aim of this study is to study the tribological behavior of coatings prepared from such powder blends. The coatings were studied under dry sliding conditions particularly at high temperatures. Tribological properties of the coatings were characterized using a specific hot-button tribological tester at the temperature of 300°C in air, and a pin-on-disk test at room temperature. Addition of NiCrBSi resulted in coatings, which showed low coefficient of friction in high temperatures, and in high levels of contact pressure and sliding speed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
