Characterisation of Plasma Sprayed CNT-Alumina Composite Coatings on Boiler Tube Steel
Abstract: In this research work, the 1.5, 2 and 4 wt.% CNTs-Al2O3 coatings were prepared and successfully deposited on T22 boiler tube steel using plasma spray process. Ni-Cr was also used as bond coat before applying CNTs-Al2O3 coatings. The coatings were subjected to metallography, XRD and SEM/EDAX analysis. The porosity of CNTs-Al2O3 mixed coatings on T22 boiler steel was found to be decreasing with increase in CNTs content. The CNTs were …
