  • Publication number: 20240124961
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of wear resistant alloys, such as ferrous alloys, that can have reduced carbide contents. In some embodiments, the alloys may have no carbides. In some, the alloy may have boride phases, such as phases having high Mo+W content and/or high Fe+Cr content. There can be reduced hardphases levels out of the specifically disclosed boride phases in some embodiments. In some embodiments, hypereutectic chromium borides can have limited incorporation into the disclosed alloys.

  • Publication number: 20220258289
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of alloys configured to form a coating with two contrasting physical behaviors: 1) reduced hardness with the end result of an easily machinable coating and 2) high abrasion resistance. Generally low hardness will result in low abrasion resistance. However, embodiments of the alloys described herein are able to maintain a low hardness while exhibiting higher abrasion resistance.

  • Publication number: 20220251697
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of iron-based alloys. The alloys can be powders used as a feedstock for plasma or thermal spray processes. In some embodiments, the alloys can have low or no chromium, provided improvements from an environmental and worker health perspective. In some embodiments, the powder can have a generally large particle size.

  • Patent number: 11253957
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of hardfacing/hardbanding materials, alloys, or powder compositions that can have low chromium content or be chromium free. In some embodiments, the alloys can contain transition metal borides and borocarbides with a particular metallic component weight percentage. The disclosed alloys can have high hardness and ASTM G65 performance, making them advantageous for hardfacing/hardbanding applications.

  • Publication number: 20210180157
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of copper-based alloys. The alloys can comprise hard phases of silicides and can be free or substantially free of Co, Mn, Mo, Ta, V, and W. The copper-based alloys can be used as feedstock for PTA and laser cladding hardfacing processes, and can be manufactured into cored wires used to form hardfacing layers.

  • Patent number: 10329647
    Abstract: Embodiments of wear resistant ferrous alloys are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, ferrous alloys can have a matrix which includes near spherical and hypereutectic borides and/or borocarbides while at the same time avoiding the formation of rod-like borides and/or borocarbides. In some embodiments, the wear resistant ferrous alloys can be used as a coating, such as a hardfacing layer, to add protection to different components.
