Analysis of the state and prospects of application of the plasma sputtering method for obtaining wear-resistant coatings

Abstract

The analysis of the properties of structural materials according to the wear resistance criterion is carried out. The prospects for the application of the plasma spraying method for obtaining wear-resistant coatings are given. Practice shows that methods of increasing the wear resistance of parts by applying on them thin coatings of ceramic, cermet and other highly wear-resistant materials by surfacing, vapor deposition, detonation and plasma spraying are very effective.
