Title: Study of fracture and erosive wear of plasma sprayed coatings

Journal Article · · Journal of Thermal Spray Technology; (United States)

It is experimentally established that both the double-cantilever and short-bar methods are able to ascertain the G(Ic) of plasma-sprayed coatings. WC-Co- and ZrO2-base coatings are examined by these means; the G(Ic) of the former is found to be higher than that of the latter, and WC-Co coatings are also found to be the more erosion-resistant of the two. 15 refs.
