Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Thermal spray coating compositions, methods of using thermal spray coating compositions, and remanufactured components are disclosed herein. A thermal spray coating composition can include about 7% to about 9% by weight aluminum, about 5% to about 7% by weight silicon, about 1% to about 3% by weight manganese, about 1% to about 14% by weight copper, with a remaining balance of iron. The thermal spray coating composition can include about 2% to about 12% by weight copper.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A thermal spray coating composition comprising about 7% to about 9% by weight aluminum, about 5% to about 7% by weight silicon, about 1% to about 3% by weight manganese, about 1% to about 14% by weight copper, with a remaining balance of iron. 2. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the copper is about 2% to about 12% by weight. 3. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the aluminum is about 8% by weight. 4. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the silicon is about 6% by weight silicon. 5. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the manganese is about 2% by weight. 6. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the copper is about 2% by weight. 7. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the copper is about 6% by weight. 8. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the copper is about 12% by weight. 9. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the thermal spray coating can be used in one or more of the following processes: plasma spraying, detonation spraying, twin wire arc spraying, flame spraying, or high velocity oxy-fuel coating spraying. 10. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the thermal spray coating composition is a wire. 11. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 9 , wherein the wire is a cored wire. 12. The thermal spray coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the thermal spray coating composition is gas atomized powder. 13. A remanufactured component comprising a substrate and a thermal spray coating composition comprising about 8% by weight aluminum, about 6% by weight silicon, about 2% by weight manganese, about 2% to about 12% copper, with a remaining balance of iron. 14. The remanufactured component of claim 13 , wherein the thermal spray coating composition is a wire.
