Abstract
A method of forming a wear resistant and galling resistant coating for abrasive environments and a feed material for the method are disclosed. The feed material is for forming a wear resistant and galling resistant coating on a substrate by a welding process that heats the feed and the substrate. The feed material comprises 35 to 50 wt % titanium nitride particles and a balance of commercially pure titanium or titanium alloy particles and incidental impurities. The method involves delivering the feed material to a surface of a substrate and exposing the feed material and the substrate to sufficient energy to cause at least the commercially pure titanium or titanium alloy particles in the feed to melt and at least some of the titanium nitride particles in the feed to melt, thereby forming a melt pool. On solidification of the melt pool, at least some of the titanium nitride particles are embedded in a matrix formed from melt pool, thereby forming a wear resistant and galling resistant coating on the substrate. A wear resistant and galling resistant coating formed of the feed material is also disclosed.
