Cr3C2-NiCr- Chromium Carbide Nickel Chrome - endurance

Cr3C2-NiCr- Chromium Carbide Nickel Chrome

Endurance offers Chromium carbide coating with the following features

  • Resistance against wear at elevated temperature (up to 750˚C) due to the high wear resistance provided by the hard carbide content and the high-temperature oxidation nature.
  • Cr3C2 – NiCr coating’s properties are significantly influenced by the thermal spray process and parameters.
  • Dense coatings with improved toughness and homogeneous coating structure are produced by higher particle velocities and tightly controlled temperature of the HVAF process produce.
  • High density hard metal chromium carbide coatings show tremendous improvements in the ability to prevent corrosive media penetration into the substrate material.
  • Suitable at elevated temperature conditions where tungsten carbide coatings do not work.
  • Ductile properties are preserved even at temperatures above 600˚C.

The melting point of Cr3С2 feedstock is well below the combustion temperature in the HVAF process which eliminates the possibility of carbide dissolutions into the NiCr matrix during the coating process. As a result, no precipitation of carbide within the NiCr matrix is seen during thermal spraying of HVAF coatings.
