Abstract
Some amorphous Fe-Cr-P-C coating films having high hardness and high corrosion resistance have been produced by a newly developed thermal spraying technique. In order to control the temperatures of the powder particles in the flame spray and the substrate, a newly developed cylindrical nozzle, with external cooling nitrogen gas, was mounted to the front end of the thermal spraying gun. Fe 70 Cr 10 P 13 C 7 films with various external cooling gas velocities between 20m/s and 40m/s exhibited entire amorphous structure without oxides and/or unmelted particles. Corrosion-resistance of the films was observed in immersion tests using various corrosive liquids. An amorphous film was formed on the surface of the shaft sleeve of the slurry pump by using the cylindrical nozzle. This shaft sleeve was installed in the slurry pump of chemical fertilizer maker's production line and the life test was done under the real operation condition for two months.
