Development of HVOF sprayed NbC-based coatings

Promising coatings for applications that require a balance of wear resistance and corrosion

Niobium carbide (NbC) has long been employed to produce bulk hardmetals, e.g. for cutting tools, but practically it has not been investigated as coatings. This contribution provides an overview of our research with NbC-based coatings with Ni- and Fe...
