Abstract:This article studies the cyclic oxidation behavior of WC-10Co-4Cr powder coatings obtained by plasma spraying on AISI316L austenitic stainless steel in an ambient air at 850°C for 50 cycles. Weight change observations of coated samples have been used to establish the oxidation kinetics, and the outcomes for the uncoated and coated specimens were compared. Utilizing scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) the coating's microstructure has been identi ed before and after oxidation. XRD, SEM… 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.
