Abstract

The Detonation Spray Coating (DSC) process is a unique variant among the wide choice of thermal spray processes. The typical functionalities of DSC coatings include wear and corrosion resistance, elevated temperature oxidation resistance, thermal barrier, insulative/conductive, abradable, lubricious surface, etc. Among the coatings for wear resistance, the cermet coatings based on WC–Co and Cr3C2–NiCr are the most popular materials of choice and contribute to bulk of the utilization by the industry towards wear resistance. Notwithstanding the above materials, alternative materials involving modifications in both hard and binder phases like TiMo (CN)–NiCo, WC-CrC-Ni, WC-Co-Cr, WC-Ni, Cr3C2-Ni, Cr3C2-Inconel, etc. exhibit great promise towards tribological applications under diverse wear modes. This chapter on the tribological characteristics of the detonation sprayed coatings provides a comprehensive overview on the characteristics of various cermet coatings generated at varied process conditions and its influence on the tribological properties under abrasive, sliding, and erosive wear modes.
