摘要
This work focused on the deposition characteristics and wear behavior of Ni-coated graphite mixed with40 vol.% Al（Ni-Gr/Al） composite coatings sprayed on an Al alloy and a steel substrate by cold spraying（CS）. The morphology of the flattened Ni-Gr particles was examined by single-impact tests. Crosssectional microstructure and wear performance of the Ni-Gr/Al composite coatings were studied. Results showed that a larger number of Ni-Gr particles were finally bonded with the steel substrate, whereas many craters existed on the Al alloy substrate after the single-impact tests. The coating on the steel substrate had a high thickness, high graphite content and low coeficient of friction（COF） compared to those on the Al alloy substrate. In addition, the CS coatings presented a homogeneous distribution and uniform morphology of graphite, and a comparative COF to that of conventional thermal sprayed coatings. It was shown that CS could avoid the decomposition and transformation of graphite phase.
