Temperature can have a significant effect on the extent of wear damage of metallic components. Thermal barrier coatings with MCrAlY (where M=Ni, Co, Fe or combinations) alloys can improve the high temperature tribological and friction wear behaviour. In this work the dry friction and wear behaviour at room temperature and high temperature of new developed NiCoCrAlY and CoNiCrAlY laser cladding coatings were evaluated. Dense coatings, with good metallurgical bonding to the AISI 304 substrate was obtained by coaxial laser cladding tracks (40% overlapping), with previously optimized laser parameters. Tribological tests were performed by sliding wear at room temperature and 500 ºC, with an Al2O3 counterpart in ball on disk configuration tribometer. The wear scar surface was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) microanalysis. The 3D wear track topography was measured by inductive contact profilometer which enabled the wear rate ...
