ABSTRACTNickel-based coatings are widely used as thermal barriers in several sectors thanks to their remarkable corrosion and wear resistance and outstanding stability at high temperatures. Recently, Ni coatings, produced with thermal spraying and vacuum techniques, have been investigated for solar power energy applications. In the present manuscript, low-pressure cold spray (LPCS) was used to deposit pure Nickel onto a steel substrate. The influence of gas temperature, nozzle stand-off distance, and advancing speed on morphological and mechanical properties were studied. The optimal deposition conditions were derived by ANOVA analysis. The hardness and the adhesion strength were approximately 160 HV and 26 MPa, respectively. The highest thickness obtained under the optimised deposition with a single pass was around 900 µm.KEYWORDS: Cold spraycoatingnickelparameter optimisationadhesion strengthhardnessroughnessdesign of experiments Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Additional informationFundingThis work has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No, 754382 (https://doi.org/10.3030/754382); by ‘Comunidad de Madrid’ and European Structural Funds under ACES2030-CM project (S2018/EMT-4319); and by Spanish government AEI under grant number PID2020-115508RB-C22 (A3M).

The aim of this work was to improve the surface properties of cp-Ti Grade 2 and β-Ti alloy TNTZ (Ti-29Nb-13Ta-4.6Zr) for biomedical applications. A hybrid surface treatment consisting of shot peening and chemical etching was conducted. Subsequently, the physicochemical properties and topography of the modified surfaces were analysed. Microhardness measurements of the shot-peened samples revealed a great increase in the surface hardness to the similar level as can be achieved for the ultrafine-grained and nanostructured materials. Roughness tests and microscopic observations showed significant topographical differences, depending on the material and modification process involved. Moreover, in this paper we demonstrate the influence of the substrate and treatments on the wettability. Obtained results confirmed that designed hybrid modification of Ti Grade 2 and TNTZ has significant potential for biomedical applications.

ABSTRACT Surface modification is essential to safeguard heat exchangers from premature failure spurred by deterioration mechanisms such as corrosion and wear, which diminish performance. Meanwhile, modifying some substrates with dissimilar materials is challenging due to a mismatch in material properties. Moreover, individual alloy coatings on substrates are usually insufficient in the required material properties, leading to accelerated failure of equipment, especially in power plant industries. This article summarised the knowledge base on functionally graded materials (FGMs) while emphasising how this promising class of novel materials can reduce deterioration. Additionally, laser cladding is established to be a suitable technique for processing FGMs. A particular focus is laid on the laser beam interaction with the FGM and expounding on the processing and material parameters that affect the microstructural properties of FGMs. The development prospects for processing FGMs with superior clad quality characteristics to increase boiler pipes’ service life and performance are also highlighted.

ABSTRACTThe study reports the formation of multilayer coatings of CrN with variable gradient modulus on TC4 substrate by varying the discharge current of the hot filament in magnetron sputtering. Results show that multilayer CrN/TC4 has a higher critical failure load (63.4 N > 29.7 N), lower maximum tensile stress (103.8 GPa < 134.3 GPa), and a higher ratio of plastic to elastic deformation work (Wp/We, 2.11 > 1.58) than a single layer CrN/TC4. This indicates that the energy absorption ability of the coating/substrate before failure can be improved by increasing the loose energy-absorbing sublayer, thus improving the coating/substrate adhesion. Notably, the wear rate of both multilayer and single-layer coatings is in the order of 10−16 m3/(N·m), demonstrating their excellent wear resistance. Structural engineering enables the application of multilayer CrN coatings on low-modulus and high-strength alloy substrates, such as TC4.HIGHLIGHTS A dense-porous multilayer coating obtained by varying the filament discharge currents.The modulus difference between the multilayer CrN and TC4 reduced.The maximum tensile stress appeared at the interface of the Cr and CrN layers.The multilayer CrN/TC4 with high Wp/We and absorption ability of deformation work.The multilayer CrN/TC4 was with high adhesion and excellent wear resistance.KEYWORDS: Structure engineeringmagnetron sputteringdischarge currentsmultilayer coatingalloy substratesimulationadhesionmodulus Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China [grant number 51972155 and 52271056]; Foundation of Liaoning Educational Administration [grant number LJKZ0278 and LJKZ0306].

ABSTRACT In order to determine optimum substrate, TiN/TiCN/Al2O3/TiCNO coatings were deposited on WC-7Co substrate and WC-6Co substrate (named as Coating-7Co and Coating-6Co, respectively), and then the effect of WC-Co substrates on TiN/TiCN/Al2O3/TiCNO multilayer coatings was investigated by comparing the microstructure, hardness, adhesion strength, oxidation resistance and wear resistance of Coating-7Co and Coating-6Co. Results show that WC grain size of WC-6Co substrate is smaller, correspondingly the grain size of each layer in Coating-6Co is smaller, and the surface roughness is lower. Compared with Coating-7Co, Coating-6Co exhibits higher hardness, better plastic deformation capability, better oxidation resistance, lower friction coefficient and better short-period wear resistance. However, because of higher residual tensile stress and lower adhesion strength, the long-period wear resistance of Coating-6Co is worse than Coating-7Co conversely. To make good use of Coating-6Co, some post-deposition treatment techniques that can reduce residual tensile stress and improve adhesion strength should be considered.

The research aims to determine whether a protective oxide coating obtained by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) will prevent unfavourable changes occurring on the surface of aluminium heat enhancers for thermal energy storage (TES) based on phase change materials (PCMs). For domestic purposes (short-term, solar energy), salt hydrates are widely utilised as PCMs. Their low thermal conductivity makes the application of metal enhancers necessary to improve heat transfer in the unit. Due to the chemically aggressive nature of MgCl2·H2O, aluminium enhancers can be negatively affected during working cycles. PEO was proposed to overcome corrosion issues in the units. Cast samples, coated with PEO for a short time in KOH-Na2SiO3 electrolyte, were subjected to a molten MgCl2·H2O environment. Mass change and the surface were studied via SEM, EDS, and XRD measurements. A thin layer of aluminium oxide prevented castings from changes occurring on the surface of the enhancer.

ABSTRACTMorphological parameters of steel substrates determine the adhesion of coatings and adhesives. Three different assessment methods (cross section image, contact stylus instrument, and stripe light projection) were applied to blast-cleaned substrates. A total of 12 surface configurations were generated with different abrasive materials. The fractal dimensions were estimated by means of the box-counting method. Design of experiment and ANOVA were applied to statistically analyze the relationships. Factors included abrasive type, surface preparation grade, surface roughness, and surface profile measurement method. Similar relative trends for the fractal dimensions resulted for the three measurement methods. The normalized values of the fractal dimensions were approximately twice as high for the cross section profiles compared to the ones from contact stylus and stripe light projection. Fractal values derived from contact stylus measurements showed the highest repeatability, whereas those derived from cross section images showed the lowest repeatability.KEYWORDS: Cross sectionfractal dimensionprofile impactstripe line projectionstylus instrument Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis study received financial support from the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) in Berlin, Germany, through the ‘FoKO-Wind’ project [grant number: 03EE2006A] as part of the ‘7.

ABSTRACT A proprietary slurry cementation method was used to produce silicide-aluminide coatings on alloy Ti-6Al-4V. The cementation processes were carried out at 900–1100 °C for 2–6 h. The coatings exhibited a stratified configuration characterised by a phase arrangement that demonstrates favourable attributes pertaining to mechanical and corrosion resistance capabilities, namely, the presence of aluminium-enriched phases at the coating surface and titanium-enriched phases proximity to the substrate. The cyclic oxidation behaviour at 800 °C for 30 twenty-two-hour cycles was investigated. The characterisation of the structure of coatings was carried out through the use of scanning microscopy, X-ray microanalysis, and X-ray diffraction techniques. The coatings have excellent resistance to cyclic oxidation, resulting from the gradient structure and the establishment of a protective alumina layer on the surface. The coatings were characterised by good resistance to thermal shocks. The microcracks formed during thermal shocks were filled with an alumina, which renders the coatings self-healing.

ABSTRACTThis study investigates the impact of current density on the microstructure, composition, and internal stress of Ni-W alloys electrodeposited in a citrate system. Using XRD, SEM, EDS, TEM, and XPS, it was found that tungsten serves as a solute in a Ni-W FCC structure oriented in the (111) direction. Increasing current density led to higher tungsten content and current efficiency. The addition of 2-Butyne-1,4-diol altered the carbon content, significantly reducing internal stress by promoting carbide formation near grain boundaries, which prevented coating shrinkage during hydrogen escape. This carbon enrichment improved the alloy's corrosion resistance.KEYWORDS: ElectrodepositionNi-W alloyinternal stresscarbon contenthigh tungsten contentnanocrystallineAmorphous materialsElectrochemical corrosion Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China: [Grant Number 52174280]; Science and Technology Support Program of Jiangsu Province: [Grant Number SYG202022].
