Application of Cold Spray Protective Coating on Steel Used in the Pipeline Industry

Article Preview

Abstract:

The article deals with the influence of process parameters on the properties of the protective coating deposited by Cold Spray technology on X52 pipeline steel. Part of the work is the evaluation of the effect of heat treatment on the resulting properties of the coating. Diamalloy 1003 powder was deposited on X52 steel substrate using four different process parameters, and then the samples were heat treated at 600°C, 800°C and 1000°C. The evaluation of results included analysis of microstructure, porosity and microhardness. The results show that heat treatment has a significant effect on the properties of the coating. The lowest porosity values for all tested parameters were achieved after heat treatment of 1000°C/1 hour.
