Abstract
In this paper, an investigation was carried out to test the suitability of potential additive materials in WOKA 3533 (WC-10Co4Cr) cermet HVOF coating subjected to slurry erosion in ash conditions. The additives namely molybdenum carbide, yttrium oxide, and zirconium oxide were added in equal percentages (3 wt.%) in WOKA cermet powder. High-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spraying was performed to develop the additive-based WOKA cermet coatings. The slurry erosion in ash conditions was tested using the pot tester. Microstructural and mechanical properties of traditional and additive-based WOKA cermet coatings were also tested in the present study; for example, microstructure, crystalline phases of as-sprayed coatings, and microhardness. Results present a comparison of surface erosion wear of different cermet coatings. It was found that the yttrium oxide was a suitable additive for the WOKA cermet coatings than the molybdenum carbide. However, zirconium oxide is unsuitable for WOKA cermet coatings in erosion wear applications.
