Chromium Carbide Coatings – HVAF Thermal Spraying For Wear Resistance At Elevated Temperatures Thermal sprayed chromium carbide coatings combat high-temperature wear due to the high wear resistance imparted by the hard carbide particles and the high temperature oxidation resistant nature of the Cr2O3 oxide formed over both phases of CR3C2-NiCr. While tungsten carbide coatings provide better wear resistance when temperatures are under 510°C (950°F), high…
