Abstract

The effect of magnetic field on the phase composition and mechanical properties of detonation-sprayed coatings from VK-9 and VK-15 hard alloys is studied. It is established that the magnetic field induces phase and structural transformations in sprayed coatings, such as reinforcement of the Co matrix by dissolution of WC in Co and formation of WxCoyCz binary carbides. Magnetic treatment reduces residual internal stresses in the coating, decreases the amorphicity of its structure, and increases abrasive wear resistance.
