Abstract

There is a strong industrial interest in a cost-effective means for the application of wear and corrosion resistant coatings onto metal parts for improving performance. In this study, slurries of WC or TiC with Ni, Ni 3Al, Ni-Cr-Fe, or Co-based binders were applied onto substrates of cast iron, alloy steel, or tool steel. The coatings were bonded to the substrates using high intensity infrared (IR) heating. Most coatings were well bonded, with some chemical interaction during the bonding to the base metal. Improved hardness values were observed for all of the coating-substrate combinations. The hardness increases were found to be a function of the coating type and substrate composition.
