Abstract
This research aims to enhance the erosion-corrosion durability of monolithic ENP coating used on ductile cast iron. The ENP coating does not usually adhere well to the cast iron surface due to the special characteristics and innertness of the graphite sphere so an electrochemical surface pre-treatment containing a cathodic treatment was implemented to ensure proper adhesion of the coating to the surface. A slurry pot erosion-corrosion test was performed at a linear velocity of 10 m/s for 16 h, and it verified the efficacy of the treatment. Three different heat treatments were carried out on coated samples at 200 °C, 400 °C, and 600 °C. The sample heat-treated at 600 °C exhibited a pseudo-passivation behavior and displayed the best corrosion resistance of 0.1407 μA/cm2. Nonetheless, in erosion-corrosion tests, it was outperformed by other coatings due to the removal of its oxide layer. The heat treatment at 400 °C resulted in the highest hardness of 871 Vickeres and the best erosion-corrosion resistance of 8.8 mpy compared to 11.74 mpy for the as-plated sample and 381.3 mpy for the cast iron substrate.
期刊介绍:
Surface and Coatings Technology is an international archival journal publishing scientific papers on significant developments in surface and interface engineering to modify and improve the surface properties of materials for protection in demanding contact conditions or aggressive environments, or for enhanced functional performance. Contributions range from original scientific articles concerned with fundamental and applied aspects of research or direct applications of metallic, inorganic, organic and composite coatings, to invited reviews of current technology in specific areas. Papers submitted to this journal are expected to be in line with the following aspects in processes, and properties/performance:
A. Processes: Physical and chemical vapour deposition techniques, thermal and plasma spraying, surface modification by directed energy techniques such as ion, electron and laser beams, thermo-chemical treatment, wet chemical and electrochemical processes such as plating, sol-gel coating, anodization, plasma electrolytic oxidation, etc., but excluding painting.
B. Properties/performance: friction performance, wear resistance (e.g., abrasion, erosion, fretting, etc), corrosion and oxidation resistance, thermal protection, diffusion resistance, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, and properties relevant to smart materials behaviour and enhanced multifunctional performance for environmental, energy and medical applications, but excluding device aspects.
