Influence of the Structure and Properties OF WC – Co Alloy Powders on the Structure and Wear-Resistance of Detonation Coatings

Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Aims and scope

Abstract

We have made comparative investigations of the structure, phase composition and abrasive wear resistance of WC – Co coatings sprayed by the detonation method using powders of identical chemical composition and different particle structure, because the powders are prepared by different technologies. The laws we have found that govern how the structure evolves from the initial powder to a coating allow us to predict the physicotechnical properties of the coating. The more porous the powders, the more they are affected by the gas atmosphere in the spraying process and thus, the more significant changes in the phase composition are observed in the powder – coating system. The use of powders with highly porous particles results in the formation of porous coatings with low wear resistance.
