TL;DR: In this paper, a study was made to compare the microstructure and abrasion resistance of hardfacing alloys reinforced with primary chromium carbides, complex carbides or tungsten carbides.
318 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of particle velocity and mean impact angle on the corrosion-erosion of solubilized AISI 304 and quenched and tempered AisI 420 stainless steels was studied.
138 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the slurry and cavitation erosion resistance of six thermal spray coatings were studied in laboratory and compared to that of an uncoated martensitic stainless steel, which showed that the coating can be improved up to 16 times by the application of the thermally sprayed coatings.
132 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the slurry erosion of two coatings applied by oxy fuel powder (OFP) and wire arc spraying (WAS) processes onto sand-blasted AISI 304 steel was studied.
92 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, sliding wear tests were carried out in a pin-on-disk device to study the behavior of AISI 1070 pearlitic and BINITI 15B30 bainitic pins sliding against a set of pearlitic disks.

TL;DR: The newly developed nickel-free high nitrogen austenitic stainless steel is a reliable substitute for the conventionally used medical stainless steels.
208 citations
TL;DR: In this article, a new complex Fe-Cr-W-Mo-Nb alloy with high boron content was set into comparison with lower alloyed materials on basis Fe−Cr-B-C, a synthetic multiphase alloy on iron base with around 50.1% tungsten carbides and a crack free martensitic Fe•Cr-C alloy containing finely precipitated Niobium carbides.
192 citations
TL;DR: A comprehensive survey of welding processes used to deposit wear resistant overlays is presented in this paper, based on both literature review and research work performed at the Canadian Centre for Welding and Joining.
173 citations
TL;DR: In this article, a superhydrophobic coating on stainless steel, designed by nanosecond IR laser treatment with subsequent chemisorption of fluorooxysilane for use in heavily loaded hydraulic systems, is described.
