Abstract

The wear-resistant AlCuFe quasicrystalline coating was fabricated on substrate of titanium alloy by low-pressure plasma-spraying (LPPS) method. The LPPS AlCuFe quasicrystalline coating has a rapidly solidified lamellar microstructure consisting of mainly icosahedral phase and small amount of cubic phase peaks. The results showed that AlCuFe quasicrystalline coating improved the wear resistance of titanium-based alloys under dry sliding wear test conditions. The excellent wear resistance may be attributed to the high hardness of AlCuFe quasicrystal and the formation of the tribofilm.
