Microstructure and Wear Properties of Electrodeposited Ni-B-Al2O3 Composite Coating on Low Carbon Steel at Elevated Temperature
Source abstract
Abstract
In the present study, high-temperature wear behavior of Ni-B-Al2O3 composite coating deposited on low carbon steel by electrodeposition method was investigated. The surface morphology of the coating was examined by scanning electron microscope(SEM), and the distribution of chemical elements in the coating was analyzed with an energy dispersive spectroscope (EDS) attached to SEM. After heat treatment at 400 °C for 2h, presence of Ni2B and Ni3B phases in the composite coating was verified by the x-ray diffractometry analysis technique. The friction-wear behavior of the Ni-B-Al2O3 composite coating was investigated under different sliding speeds and loads at high temperatures (100, 200, 400 and 600 °C) and the morphology of the worn surfaces was analyzed. It was observed that Al2O3 formed on the surface of the sample improved the wear resistance of the coating significantly. As the wear temperature increased to 400 °C, the friction coefficient value of the coating was decreased to 0.42. A decrease in the coefficient of friction was attributed to the self-lubricating NiO layer which is stable up to 400 °C. Further increase in the temperature was found to degrade the stability of NiO layer and, hence, impair the mechanical properties of the coating.
