Abstract
In the present investigation, a NiCr–Cr3C2 powder mixture was deposited on titanium aluminide substrate by laser cladding. The kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of the substrate and coating were studied at 800–1100 °C using XRD, SEM, ToF–SIMS and XPS characterization techniques. The results demonstrated that the Ni–Cr–C coating had improved oxidation resistance, as compared to the substrate. The oxidized surface of the coating was covered with Cr2O3 and NiCr2O4 phases at the early stages of the oxidation. The formation of NiCr2O4 could be attributed to the reaction of NiO (an oxidation product of the NiCr phase) and Cr2O3 (an oxidation product of the chromium carbide phase) during oxidation. Increasing the oxidation time at 900 °C led to the partial formation of CrO3 as a result of the oxidation of Cr2O3. It was also found that the parabolic rate constant ratio of \(\left( {K_{{\text{p}}}^{{{\text{substrate}}}} /K_{{\text{p}}}^{{{\text{coating}}}} } \right)\) increased with the temperature, which showed, comparatively, the better oxidation resistance of the coating at higher temperatures.
