Effect of grinding on the erosion behaviour of a WC–Co–Cr coating deposited by HVOF and detonation gun spray processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of grinding on the erosion behavior of a WC-Co-Cr coating was investigated. And the results indicated that the increase in residual stress in the ground specimen is a possible cause for the improvement in erosion resistance.

Oxygen boost diffusion for the deep-case hardening of titanium alloys

TL;DR: In this article, a new oxygen boost diffusion technique has been developed for deep case hardening of titanium and its alloys, which essentially consists of thermal oxidation in air followed by diffusion in vacuum.

HVOF coatings as an alternative to hard chrome for pistons and valves

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical and tribological properties of HVOF CrC75 (NiCr20) 25 coatings were compared with hard chromium plating in piston rings and valve stems applications, and it was found that the CrC-NiCr coating, obtained with the lowest feedstock powder size, presented the best wear resistance under all the studied conditions.
