STUDY ON STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF Ni-W-SiC COMPOSITE COATING

The effects of electroplating conditions on the composition of N-W-SiC composite coating were studied; the znfiuence of heat-treatment and nitrocarburization on the microstructure, hardness and wear resistance of the coating were discussed. The results showed that an amorphous composite coating, containing(wt%) 50-55Ni, 42-45.IW and 3.0-7.6SiC, could be electroplated on the matrix. Afier heat-treatment or nitrocarburization the coating crystallized to form some new phases, and the haordness and wear resistance of the composite coating were enhanced retmarkably.
