Nickel-based composite coatings reinforced by spherical tungsten carbide were deposited on 42CrMo alloy steel using plasma transfer arc welding (PTAW) process. Their electrochemical corrosion properties in NaCl solution under atmospheric and high pressure were studied by polarization curve, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The corrosion and erosion resistance of the coatings were also investigated by salt spray corrosion and erosion corrosion tests. The results show that the self-corrosion potential of the composite coatings increased with the increase of tungsten carbide content, and the Cr element in Ni60 sample formed a stable and compact passivation film. Compared with corrosion at atmospheric pressure, the adsorption and penetration of Cl- on the coating surface enhanced due to the increase of Cl- activity under pressure, thereby to weaken the corrosion resistance. The Samples that passivated in salt spray environment, cannot completely hinder the corrosion of the coating, just only to slow down the corrosion. This study can provide theoretical basis for deep-sea oil drilling and production engineering equipment.

In order to ensure high wear resistance of parts and tools, operating at significant dynamic loads in the extreme conditions, the layers different in their function purpose obtained using surfacing methods are widely used. In such surfacing compositions, the powders of high-melting compounds characterized by high hardness and strength, are used as a wear resistant component, for example, alloys of tungsten carbide WC + W2C (cast tungsten carbide), and as binder matrix the plastic and metal alloys are used.The great interest is the development of methods allowing producing powders of cast tungsten carbide and other high-melting-point materials of uniform composition, characterized by a high sphericity of the particles and having higher physical-mechanical properties. The spherical tungsten carbide was produced by plasma atomization of rotating billet. The universal installation for production of super-hard spherical tungsten carbide and other high-melting-point compounds by plasma atomization of rotating billets was designed for industrial application. The results showed that the application of the technology of plasma rotary atomization of rotation billet to obtain granules of powders of high-melting-point materials was promising, in particular tungsten carbide with sphericity over 90%, microhardness HV0.1 more than 3000 kg / mm2 characterized by high flow ability more than 7.5 s/ 50 g. Due to the use of new materials and innovative design and technological solutions the high reliability, maximum interval of technical service, high resource of operating units and executing mechanism of the equipment were ensured. Due to the use of new high-power plasma system with power supply source with high efficiency coefficient and improved dynamic characteristics, the system of preliminary heating of billets, innovative gas systems, high performance vacuum system, the developed universal system for the production of granules of powders of high-melting-point material were also applicable for the manufacture of spherical powders of metals and alloys, including highly active, and provided lower costs of products (powder) with an increased productivity, economic efficiency of the atomization process and reduced the impact of atomization process on the environment.

<div>Electrochemical reduction of CO2 to useful chemical and fuels in an energy efficient way is currently an expensive and inefficient process. Recently, low-cost transition metal-carbides (TMCs) are proven to exhibit similar electronic structure similarities to Platinum-Group-Metal (PGM) catalysts and hence can be good substitutes for some important reduction reactions. In this work, we test graphenesupported WC (Tungsten Carbide) nanocluster as an electrocatalyst for the CO2 reduction reaction. Specifically, we perform DFT studies to understand various possible reaction mechanisms and determine the lowest thermodynamic energy landscape of CO2 reduction to various products such as CO, HCOOH, CH3OH, and CH4. This in-depth study of reaction energetics could lead to improvements and develop more efficient electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction.<br></div>
