Optimisation of the hard material fractions offlux-cored wires with large diameters for arc wirecoating
One strategy for the manufacture of wear-resistant coatings consists of embedding carbidic hard material particles in a certain size and concentration into a ductile matrix. Using arc wire coating, flux-cored wires with...
Investigation of the microstructure and adhesionof warm sprayed WC-Co(Cr) coatings with smallcarbides (400-500 nm)
For decades, the deposition of WC-Co and WC-CoCr wear protective coatings by means of thermal spraying has been well investigated and established. These coatings exhibit a high hardness and a high toughness and thus supe...
Application of a titanium filler metal by cold gas dynamic spraying
Pure titanium and titanium alloys find numerous applications in lightweight design. These materials are corrosion and oxidation resistant, have a high strength to weight ratio, excellent biocompability and a density whic...
