Abstract

A thermal spray powder is provided that contains, as constituent elements, a first element selected from W and Mo; a second element selected from Co, Ni, and Fe; a third element selected from C and B; and a fourth element selected from Al and Mg. The amount of the second element in the thermal spray powder is 20% by mole or greater. The mole ratio of the fourth element to the second element in the thermal spray powder is 0.05 or greater and 0.5 or less. The thermal spray powder has a crystal phase containing Co, Ni, or Fe; W; and C or a crystal phase containing Co, Ni, or Fe; W or Mo; and B. In an X-ray diffraction spectrum of the thermal spray powder, the peak intensity attributed to Co, Ni, or Fe is at most 0.1 times the largest peak intensity in the same X-ray diffraction spectrum.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A thermal spray powder comprising, as constituent elements:
a first element selected from the group consisting of tungsten and molybdenum;
a second element consisting of cobalt;
a third element selected from the group consisting of carbon and boron; and
a fourth element selected from the group consisting of aluminum and magnesium, wherein
the thermal spray powder contains the second element in an amount of 20% by mole or greater,
the mole ratio of the fourth element to the second element in the thermal spray powder is 0.05 or greater and 0.5 or less,
the thermal spray powder has a crystal phase that contains cobalt; tungsten; and carbon or a crystal phase that contains cobalt; tungsten or molybdenum; and boron, and
in an X-ray diffraction spectrum of the thermal spray powder, the intensity of a peak attributed to cobalt is at most 0.1 times the intensity of a peak having the largest intensity among peaks appearing in the same X-ray diffraction spectrum.

2. A thermal spray coating obtained by thermally spraying the thermal spray powder according to claim 1 .

3. A roll used in a molten metal bath, the roll comprising a surface on which the thermal spray coating according to claim 2 is formed.

4. A coating comprising, as constituent elements:
a first element selected from the group consisting of tungsten and molybdenum;
a second element consisting of cobalt;
a third element selected from the group consisting of carbon and boron; and
a fourth element selected from the group consisting of aluminum and magnesium, wherein
the coating contains the second element in an amount of 20% by mole or greater,
the mole ratio of the fourth element to the second element in the coating is 0.05 or greater and 0.5 or less,
the coating has a crystal phase that contains cobalt; tungsten; and carbon or a crystal phase that contains cobalt; tungsten or molybdenum; and boron, and
a peak attributed to cobalt is not detected in an X-ray diffraction spectrum of the coating.

5. A roll used in a molten metal bath, the roll comprising a surface on which the coating according to claim 4 is formed.
