Investigations on the Abrasive Wear Behaviour of Molybdenum Coating on SS304 and A36 using HVOF Technique

In this study, Stainless Steel 304 and Low carbon steel A36 were coated with molybdenum using HVOF spray technique. The coated and uncoated samples were subjected to abrasive test using standard Pin on disc apparatus. The results were analysed with the help of SEM and EDAX. It was observed that the uncoated specimens had higher wear rate whereas molybdenum coated specimen had 50% less wear rate.
