 Abstract:
The conventional high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) process has characteristics of high flame velocity and moderate temperature, it is widely used to deposit cements, metals and alloys coatings such as WC-Co, nickel and stainless steel. In this paper, a high pressure HVOF system with combustion chamber pressure up to 3.0MPa, and with characteristics of higher flame velocity and lower temperature was developed.
In-flight particle velocity was measured under conditions at combustion chamber pressure of 1.0 to 3.0 MPa and stainless steel 316L powder was deposited. The coating microstructure, deposition efficiency and micro-hardness were investigated. It was shown that the combustion chamber pressure has significant influence on particle velocity. Dense coatings composed of the mixture including un-molten or partially molten particles can be deposited by varying the spray parameters. At the experiment, deposition efficiency up to 90% was achieved at the optimized conditions.
