Notes:
Al-Cu-Fe-B quasicrystalline and Mo coatings were obtained on the mild steel and brasssubstrates by thermal spraying routes for the purpose of replacement of Mo coatings withquasicrystalline ones. Quasicrystalline coatings were prepared by air plasma spraying and/or HVOF(High Velocity Oxygen Fuel) techniques followed by subsequent heat treatment, and Mo coatings,wire flame spraying. For comparative studies of important properties for industrial application,mechanical properties, bonding strength, surface energy, and tribological behavior were investigatedbased on microstructural characterization. Basic mechanical properties such as hardness, fracturetoughness, and elastic modulus of quasicrystalline coating showed comparable values with those ofMo coatings. De-bonding tests of coatings deposited onto brass substrate indicated that the bondingstrength of quasicrystalline coatings obtained by HVOF techniques exhibit higher value to Mocoatings. Non-sticking property analogized from surface energy calculation and friction coefficient ofquasicrystalline coatings also showed better performance during the tests. It is suggested from thisinvestigation that the quasicrystalline coating can be effectively used as a replacement of the Mocoating, which has shown a recent steep price rise and problems of accidental existence of minorenvironment harmful elements such as Cr6+, Pb, Cd, and Hg
