In one experiment, the NiCrBSi castellan PE 3309 alloy was flame sprayed onto prism-shaped grey cast iron, and in another, the alloy was laser remelted.
Block-on-ring test
The laser remelted coating wore out faster. The most common wear mechanism discovered is adhesion.
Al coated with a polyetheretherketone (PEEK) composite and Al coated with a polyetheretherketone/SiC (PEEK/SiC) composite
Block-on-ring test
Compared to aluminum substrates, both polymer coatings showed a substantial improvement in wear resistance. In most sliding conditions, the addition of SiC to polymer coatings improved wear resistance even further.
