NiTi coating was deposited on the substrate by using the thermal plasma spraying method. Deposition of NiTi coating was carried out by using various levels of input power under an Ar atmosphere. Multiple coating layers were deposited on the stainless steel surface for a specific thickness. The cross-section of the plasma-sprayed samples were prepared and characterized by using various techniques. The hardness of the coating layers on the surface and cross-section was examined. The thickness of the coating increased with the increase in power. No cracks were detected in the interface for the NiTi coating deposited at 12 kW power. However minor pores were observed at some regions along the interfaceMaterials (Basel, Switzerland)Interfacial Adhesion of Thick NiTi Coating on Substrate Stainless Steel.PMC9738793SOLID21: CZ.02.1.01/0.0/0.0/16_019/0000760LM201811020-14114SSamal SSittner PKopecek JfalseInterfacial Adhesion of Thick NiTi Coating on Substrate Stainless Steel.Interfacial adhesion of thick NiTi coating on substrate stainless steel is investigated here.
