Development of near net shape coatings for wearand corrosion protection
In this work several powder materials typically used for wear and corrosion protection (WCCoCr, Cr3C2-NiCr, Cr2O3) were considered for developing near net shape coatings. In contrast to grain sizes commonly used in therm...
Development of NiZn-Ferrite Coatings forElectromagnetic Applications
Ferrites are iron-containing, ceramics which exhibit magnetic properties. They are non-conducting and therefore employed in high frequency applications. Most ferrites possess a spinel crystal structure and one of the mos...
Rolling Contact Fatigue of HVOF-SprayedHardmetal Coatings on Unhardened Substrates
The present paper provides an overview of current work on the performance of thermally sprayed hardmetal coatings in rolling contact fatigue (RCF) conditions. Four different hardmetal compositions were investigated: thre...
