Microstructure and Tribological Properties of Stellite21 Coating by Electro-Spark Deposition

Article Preview

Abstract:

Setellite21 cobalt-based alloy coating was deposited on 45 steel by electro-spark deposition. Microstructure and phase composition of the coating were analyzed. Wear resistance and wear mechanism of the coating were researched. The results indicate that the coating with compact structure is mainly composed of Co, Co6W6C, CoCx and CoCr. Average microhardness of the coating is 445.34 HV0.5, which is about 2 times to that of the substrate. The coating presents excellent wear resistance with no obvious peelings and scratches. Wear resistance of the coating is about 2.3~2.7 times to that of the substrate. Wear mechanism of the coating mainly contains abrasive wear and fatigue wear, and along with oxidization wear.
