Laser cladding is a process whereby a new layer of material is deposited on a substrate by
laser fusion of blown powders or pre-placed powder coatings. Multiple layers can be …

Slurry erosion is a serious menace in most of the hydro machine components all around the
globe. Slurry erosion is accountable for heavy economic losses. However, some counter …

Iron-based hardfacing alloys are widely used to protect machinery equipment exposed
either to pure abrasion or to a combination of abrasion and impact. The specific wear …

In this work, the influence of the processing conditions on the microstructure and abrasive
wear behaviour of a NiCrBSi hardfacing alloy is analysed. The hardfacing alloy was applied …

Aluminium alloy matrix reinforced with 15wt% SiC particles were prepared by powder
metallurgy (PM) method. Wear behaviour of the composite was investigated to find out …

Hardfacing plates are being used in raw material conveying system of an integrated steel
plants to mitigate the wear of chutes and hoppers. Four Fe-based commercial hardfacing …

Within this work, the effect of carbide degradation in a WC/W2C reinforced Ni-based
hardfacing was assessed under abrasive and combined impact/abrasive conditions. In view …

ZrO 2, a promising abrasive to improve tribological properties, is introduced into copper
metal matrix composites (Cu-MMCs). Micro-tribological behaviors of ZrO 2 in two crystal …

The aim of this research was to investigate the microstructural and mechanical properties of
WC–FeCrAl and WC–NiMoCrFeCo coatings deposited by high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) …

Coatings of a composite material consisting of an Al-Si matrix reinforced with SiC particles
were produced by laser cladding on UNS A03560 cast Al-alloy substrates from mixtures of …
