Abstract
The paper presents the results of examinations of WC-Co coating sprayed on ductile cast iron by high velocity oxygen fuel spray process (HVOF) with powder containing Al particles in an amount of 10%. The impact of Al particles added to the tungsten carbide coating on the structure, mechanical and tribological properties in the system of (WC-C)/ductile cast iron was examined. The microstructure of the thermal sprayed WC-Co+Al coating was characterized by light, scanning electron (SEM) and transmission electron (TEM) microscopes as well as the analysis of chemical and phase composition in micro areas (EDS, XRD). It was found that by supersonic thermal spraying with WC-Co powders with the addition of Al particles, the coatings of low porosity, high hardness, a very good adhesion to the substrate, compact structure with molten Al particles and finely fragmented WC particles embedded in a cobalt matrix, reaching the nanocrystalline sizes w...
