Cu 38Ni Powder Description:
Cu 38Ni Powder is an inert gas atomized alloyed powder tailored for protecting titanium alloy parts against metal-to-metal wear. Coatings produced from this material are dense, low in oxide content, and exhibit effective resistance to fretting, adhesion, galling, and cavitation. With a higher melting temperature compared to CuNiIn coatings, it is typically applied using atmospheric plasma spray (APS) or combustion powder Thermospray, offering thin coatings ranging from 0.013 mm to 0.051 mm (0.0005 to 0.002 inches). The as-sprayed coatings are utilized in various applications, and their near-surface wear properties can be further enhanced by applying a dry film lubricant post-spraying.
