Abstract:There are several challenges when designing components exposed to harsh environments. Cases such as hydraulic turbines and marine propellers are classic examples of demands for materials capable of withstanding erosion and corrosion wear. To enhance and recover worn surfaces, it is usual the use of coatings. This study proposes a new series of coatings based on diffusional effects observed for thermally sprayed chromium carbide coating. A columnar morphology was observed, due to the diffusional gradient perpen… Show more
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.
