Abstract Scope |
Traditional ceramics processing methods of aluminum magnesium boride (BAM) metal-composite coatings have historically been difficult to apply to engineering substrates while retaining the unique tribological properties (e.g., high hardness, low friction) characteristic of BAM. Additive manufacturing provides a means for producing BAM-metal composite coatings for engineering materials. In this work, metallic–BAM composites with different chemistries where fabricated. The microstructures and phases were studied using XRD, EBSD/TKD, and TEM analysis. Additionally, friction and wear properties were investigated and compared to uncoated engineering metals. The wear and friction for BAM-metal composite coatings were connected to the microstructure and phase of BAM-metal composite coating. Knowledge of the processing-structure-properties relationships in the additive manufactured BAM-metal composite system has the potential to greatly enhance the application space for the unique BAM material system while also reducing energy consumption and improve the sustainability of components that have been treated with BAM-metal composite additively manufactured coatings. |
