Abstract
A Ni-Al-Cu coating was prepared on NAB alloy through electroplating and heat treatment, and the erosion-corrosion behaviors were investigated. The results demonstrated that Ni-Al-Cu coating exhibited higher erosion resistance compared to NAB alloy, with an average reduction of 63 % in material removal rate (MRR). It was revealed that deformation and cracks were observed in NAB, with loss of hard κ and β phases alongside deformation of ductile α phase. Meanwhile, Ni-Al-Cu coating experienced fatigue delamination and grain disintegration due to alternating stress. Taguchi design method showed that increasing flow velocity and sand concentration could enhance the intensity of gravel impact, while changes in the erosion angle affected gravel impact modes and energy transfer, thereby impacting corrosion performance. Additionally, empirical equations for the material removal rate were derived through regression analysis, which became possible to predict the MRR under different influencing factors and assess the erosion-corrosion resistance of materials.
