Abstract
Erosion wear is an important failure mode existing in hydropowder, petroleum, chemical industry and other fields. Nanostructured WC-Co materials possess excellent erosion wear resistance due to their outstanding combination of high hardness and excellent fracture toughness. Nanostructured WC-12Co coating was prepared by means of High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) spraying technology in this research. The simulating experiment system was developed to study the erosion wear properties. The corundum sand with main composition of Al2O3 was used to investigate the dynamic erosion properties of nanostructured WC-12Co coating. The dynamic failure mechanism of the coatings was also analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The results show that the coating is worn layer by layer in the erosion test. The bonding between the layers and the thickness of the coating should be increased to elongate the coating life.
