4、inery, automotive, and biomedical. The WC-CoCr coating exhibits excellent wear resistance, thermal stability, and corrosion resistance, which make it an ideal choice for applications under severe conditions. However, the tribological properties of the WC-CoCr coating under micro-scale reciprocating

5、sliding wear conditions, especially at the nano-scale, is still not fully understood. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the mechanical and tribological behaviors of the supersonic flame sprayed WC-CoCr composite coatings, which can provide valuable information for optimizing the coating proc

6、ess and improving the performance of the coatings.Experimental ProcedureThe WC-CoCr composite coatings were deposited on a steel substrate using a supersonic flame spraying technique. The morphology and microstructure of the coatings were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-

7、ray diffraction (XRD). The mechanical properties of the coatings were evaluated using nanoindentation tests with an atomic force microscope (AFM). The wear performance of the coatings was evaluated under a micro-scale reciprocating sliding wear test using a custom-built tribometer.Results and Discus

8、sionThe SEM and XRD analysis show that the WC-CoCr coatings are uniformly deposited on the steel substrate and have a dense microstructure with a thickness of about 150 m. The coatings consist of WC particles, CoCr matrix, and some intermetallic phases, such as W2Co3 and WCo2. The nanoindentation re

9、sults show that the hardness and Youngs modulus of the WC-CoCr coatings are 25.81.0 GPa and 282.65.9 GPa, respectively. The wear test results show that the WC-CoCr coatings exhibit excellent wear resistance, with a low wear rate of 1.210-7 mm3/Nm and a coefficient of friction (COF) of about 0.3. Mor

10、eover, the wear debris analysis reveals that the wear mechanism of the WC-CoCr coatings is mainly attributed to the micro-cutting and micro-ploughing of the coating surface, indicating the good adhesion and toughness of the coatings.ConclusionThe supersonic flame sprayed WC-CoCr composite coatings e

11、xhibit excellent wear resistance and anti-friction properties, which can be attributed to the high hardness, toughness, and adhesion of the coatings. The nanoindentation tests indicate that the WC-CoCr coatings have a high hardness and elastic modulus, which can effectively resist the micro-cutting

12、and micro-ploughing during the sliding wear process. The tribological test results show that the WC-CoCr coatings have a low wear rate and COF, which can be attributed to the lubrication effect and good adhesion of the CoCr matrix. Therefore, the supersonic flame sprayed WC-CoCr composite coatings c

13、an be a promising material for wear-resistant applications under severe conditions.However, it should be noted that the wear performance of the WC-CoCr coatings may be affected by factors such as the load, sliding speed, and temperature. In addition, the coating process and substrate material may al

14、so influence the mechanical and tribological properties of the coatings. Therefore, further research is needed to optimize the coating process and investigate the wear performance of the WC-CoCr coatings under different conditions.In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the mechani

15、cal and tribological properties of the supersonic flame sprayed WC-CoCr composite coatings. The excellent wear resistance and anti-friction properties of the coatings make them a promising material for applications in industries such as aerospace, machinery, automotive, and biomedical.
