Description
Summary:This study describes multi-factor-based experiments that were applied to researching and investigating an abrasive wear system of Ni-based alloy coatings both with and without WC reinforcement. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of factors such as the load applied, WC reinforcement particles, abrasive grain size and environment on abrasive wear. Our results highlight how the grain size of the abrasive and the WC reinforcement particles both have a major abrasive effect. This contrasts starkly with the impact of the load applied and the environment, which have a far lesser effect and a very slight effect respectively. The relationship between these four factors and wear loss is described, and the mechanics of how wear takes place is discussed.
