In this study, Ni-Ti alloy coatings were sprayed on mild steel using atmospheric plasma spray process. The results showed that a stand-off distance of 120 mm led to better mechanical properties such as microhardness and adhesion strength. The stand-off distance significantly influenced the formation of intermetallic compounds in the coatings, thereby affecting the mechanical properties.
In the current investigation, an elemental blending of equiatomic Ni and Ti powder was considered to spray on mild steel by the atmospheric plasma spray process. The results revealed that the coating developed with 120 mm stand-off distance (SOD) has better mechanical properties such as microhardness and adhesion strength. Again, SOD predominantly influences the formation of intermetallics (NiTi, Ni3Ti, Ti2Ni, and TiO) that helps to enhance the microhardness (683.85 HV) as well as the mechanical interlocking and chemical bonding that is solely responsible for the high adhesion strength (43.17 MPa) of the coating. The failure analysis of the coating developed at too high and too low SOD revealed that rapid expansion of gas stream, reduction in enthalpy of particles, improper heat transfer, burning of splat, agglomeration of particles during flight, and oxidation are the key factors responsible for the reduction in mechanical properties of plasma-sprayed Ni-Ti alloy (NITINOL) coatings. In addition to the above, the solid particle erosion analysis revealed the increase in brittleness of the coating with increasing in SOD. The surface morphologies of the eroded surface depict various erosion mechanisms at both 45 degrees and 90 degrees impingement angles such as chip formation, lip formation, plastic deformation, scratches, etc. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.
