Abstract
In braking systems, which consist of dry sliding lining against a pearlitic cast-iron disc, disc wear has a significant impact on the overall wear rate. In this work, dynamometer tests were conducted to find out the friction and wear behaviour of 20NiCrBSi-WC12Co cermet coating accumulated on the cast-iron disc by High velocity oxy-fuel spraying (HVOF) and the findings were compared with those of the uncoated disc. Braking tests of the coated and uncoated discs were performed on a full-scale brake dynamometer, which was designed in line with the SAE-J2430 Brake Effectiveness Procedure. Microhardness values, surface properties, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis, energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the discs were evaluated. As a result of these analyses, it was found out that cermet coating had a much higher microhardness and abrasion resistance with the combination of hard WC phase and mild Ni matrix compared to the conventional disc. The coated disc exhibited stable braking effectiveness with lower surface contact temperature. At the same time, this coating results in longer service life by reducing abrasive wear on the brake disc surface and a lower lining wear rate, reducing particle matter emissions to the environment.
