 Abstract:
The effects of vacuum annealing on the microstructure, phase evolution and tribological behavior of Fe-40Al coatings prepared by atmospheric plasma spraying have been investigated. The deposited specimens were annealed at different temperatures of 650, 950 and 1000°C. Inspections by SEM and phase analysis by XRD indicated that bcc-FeAl transformed into B2-FeAl with high long relative order degree after heat treatments. Generation of these phases increased the coatings hardness. Tribological properties were studied by ball-on-disc friction test. Results showed that the wear resistance of Fe-40Al coating was greatly improved by an appropriate heat treatment temperature.
