Abstract
WC-12%Co, Cr3C2-25%NiCr, 80%Ni-20%Cr, 87%Al2O3-13%TiO2 coatings were deposited by Air Plasma Spray (APS) technique on ASTM A36 steel. Erosion behaviour of sprayed coated samples were investigated at three different impact angles (45°, 60° and 90°). The mechanism of erosion was investigated on uncoated and coated samples. The rate of erosion of the substrate first increased with increasing angle of impact and then gradually decreased. But the erosion rate of the coated samples increased steadily. Substrate shows the higher metal removal whereas coating shows the higher erosion resistance. WC-12%Co coated samples performed well in erosion testing and offered best erosion resistance as compared to the substrate and all other coatings. Ductile fracture takes place on substrate material at higher impact angle. Overall, all the coated samples have shown less erosion propensity when compare to the bare one.
