Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Wear and corrosion damage is ubiquitous in the fields of engineering, and severely influences the regular operation of equipment. Especially for some key components (slide bearings, rollers, turbine blades, etc.), excessive wear and corrosion damage can directly cause the equipment to shut down, and also threatens production safety. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop advanced wear and corrosion resistant materials. Preparing surface coatings for wear and corrosion prevention are also effective ways to address these issues. As it is known, ceramics possess a high hardness and chemical stability, which makes ceramics the ideal candidate for anti-wear and corrosion applications. However, traditional ceramics have many drawbacks when applied as structural parts, such as  brittleness, poor machinability and a high cost. Thus, it is urgent to develop new ceramic materials or corresponding composites which are suitable for use under severe wear and corrosion conditions. Furthermore, the underlying damage mechanisms need to be revealed and understood. Therefore, papers involving the designing, fabrication, and studying of wear and corrosion behaviors of ceramic-based materials or coatings are especially welcome.

This Special Issue is mainly focused on ceramic-based materials or coatings for anti-wear and corrosion applications, including, but not limited to, ceramics, cermets, metal- or ceramic-based composites, coatings, hardfacings and the characterization of wear or corrosion behaviors. Research contributions and review articles highlighting recent progress in the field are all welcome.

To explore a new method to improve the wear resistance of TiNi shape memory alloy (SMA), Ti-50.8Ni alloy was treated by the method of ultrasonic surface shot peening. The microstructure evolution, hardness, and tribological behaviors have been further investigated to evaluate the effect of ultrasonic surface shot peening (USSP). The surface microstructure can be refined to some extent while the basic phase composition has little change. USSP can facilitate the martensitic transformation in the surface layer, which benefits improving the surface hardness. Additionally, the hardness of Ti-50.8Ni alloy increases first and then decreases with the increase of applied load, but the USSP-treated alloy tends to be more sensitive to load. USSP treatment can improve the wear resistance and reduce the coefficient of friction (COF) in case of a low sliding wear speed of 5 mm/s. However, the tribological properties of USSP-treated alloy are reversely worse in the case of 10 mm/s. This is mainly attributed to the combined effect of stress-induced martensite transformation and degeneration resulting from the frictional heating during the dry sliding wear process. Full article

Development of high-performance cutting tool materials is one of the critical parameters enhancing the surface finishing of high-speed machined products. Ti(C,N)-based cermets reinforced with and without different contents of silicon nitride were designed and evaluated to satisfy the requirements. In fact, the effect of silicon nitride addition to Ti(C,N)-based cermet remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of Si3N4 additive on microstructure, mechanical properties, and thermal stability of Ti(C,N)-based cermet cutting tools. In the present work, α-Si3N4 “grade SN-E10” was utilized with various fractions up to 6 wt.% in the designed cermets. A two-step reactive sintering process under vacuum was carried out for the green compact of Ti(C,N)-based cermet samples. The samples with 4 wt.% Si3N4 have an apparent solid density of about 6.75 g/cm3 (relative density of about 98 %); however, the cermet samples with 2 wt.% Si3N4 exhibit a superior fracture toughness of 10.82 MPa.m1/2 and a traverse rupture strength of 1425.8 MPa. With an increase in the contents of Si3N4, the Vickers hardness and fracture toughness of Ti(C,N)-based cermets have an inverse behavior trend. The influence of Si3N4 addition on thermal stability is clarified to better understand the relationship between thermal stability and mechanical properties of Ti(C,N)-based cermets. Full article

In this study, the induction plasma spheroidization (IPS) technique was adopted to improve the microstructure and properties of the traditional agglomerated ZrO2-7wt%Y2O3 (YSZ) powders used in thermal barrier coating (TBC) applications. Compared with agglomerated YSZ powders, IPS-treated powder has a more desirable microstructure, and the overall performance of the spray powders for TBC preparation is significantly improved. Specifically, IPS-treated powder has a dense, solid, defect-free, and chemically uniform microstructure, and its apparent density, flowability, and powder strength are significantly improved, which is believed to substantially enhance the coating performance when prepared with this IPS-treated powder.

In this work, to explore potential substitutions for the Co binder phase, ultrafine-grain WC-based cermets with various binder phases of Co, Ni and AlCoCrNiFeCu HEA were prepared using the SPS method. Based on SPS, WC-based cermets were fabricated at higher speed, showing fine carbide particles less than 410 μm. The microstructure, mechanical properties and wear properties were systematically evaluated. By comparison, the grain size of WC was the lowest for WC-10Co, while WC-10 HEA cermet held the coarsest WC particles. The hardness and fracture toughness of WC-10 HEA were the best among all three samples, with values of 93.2 HRA and 11.3 MP·m1/2. However, the bending strength of WC-10HEA was about 56.1% lower than that of WC-10Co, with a value of 1349.6 MPa. The reduction in bending strength is attributed to the lower density, formation of a newly Cr-Al rich phase and coarser WC grains. In dry sliding wear conditions, WC-10 HEA showed the lowest wear rate (0.98 × 10−6 mm3/(N·m)) and coefficient of friction (0.19), indicating the best wear resistance performance. This reveals that WC-based cermet with a HEA binder phase has superior wear performance due to the higher hardness and good self-lubricating effect of the wear products. Full article

In order to solve the problem of external corrosion of deep well casing in oil and gas fields, a new type of high-temperature-resistant zinc alloy sacrificial anode material was used. The temperature and corrosion resistance of the new anode material and TP140 casing were investigated by simulating the high-temperature working conditions of a deep well in an oil field using high-temperature and high-pressure corrosion tests and electrochemical tests. The results showed that at 100–120 °C, the corrosion rate of TP140 protected by a sacrificial anode was only one-tenth of that under unprotected conditions, and the minimum corrosion rate of TP140 protected by a sacrificial anode at 100 °C was 0.0089 mm/a. The results of the dynamic potential polarization curve showed that the corresponding corrosion current density of TP140 first increased and then decreased with the increase in temperature. The self-corrosion potential in sacrificial anode materials first increased and then decreased with the increase in temperature, and the potential difference with TP140 gradually decreased.
