Purpose The main purpose of this work is to explore the erosion wear characteristics of additively manufactured aluminium alloy. Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as three-dimensional (3D) manufacturing, is the process of manufacturing a part designed in a computer environment using different types of materials such as plastic, ceramic, metal or composite. Similar to other materials, aluminum alloys are also exposed to various wear types during operation. Production efficiency needs to be aware of its reactions to wearing mechanisms. Design/methodology/approach In this study, quartz sands (SiO2) assisted with oxide ceramics were used in the slurry erosion test setup and its abrasiveness on the AlSi10Mg aluminum alloy material produced by the 3D printer as selective laser melting (SLM) technology was investigated. Quartz was sieved with an average particle size of 302.5 µm, and a slurry environment containing 5, 10 and 15% quartz by weight was prepared. The experiments were carried out at the velocity of 1.88 (250 rpm), 3.76 (500 rpm) and 5.64 m/s (750 rpm) and the impact angles 15, 45 and 75°. Findings With these experimental studies, it has been determined that the abrasiveness of quartz sand prepared in certain particle sizes is directly related to the particle concentration and particle speed, and that the wear increases with the increase of the concentration and rotational speed. Also, the variation of weight loss and surface roughness of the alloy was investigated after different wear conditions. Surface roughness values at 750 rpm speed, 10% concentration and 75° impingement angle are 0.32 and 0.38 µm for 0 and 90° samples, respectively, with a difference of approximately 18%. Moreover, concerning a sample produced at 0°, the weight loss at 250 rpm at 10% concentration and 45° particle impact angle is 32.8 mg, while the weight loss at 500 rpm 44.4 mg, and weight loss at 750 rpm is 104 mg. Besides, the morphological structures of eroded surfaces were examined using the scanning electron microscope to understand the wear mechanisms. Originality/value The researchers verified that this specific coating condition increases the slurry wear resistance of the mentioned steel. There are many studies about slurry wear tests; however, there is no study in the literature about the quartz sand (SiO2) assisted slurry-erosive wear of AlSi10Mg alloy produced with AM by using SLM technology. This study is needed to fill this gap in the literature and to examine the erosive wear capability of this current material in different environments. The novelty of the study is the use of SiO2 quartz sands assisted by oxide ceramics in different concentrations for the slurry erosion test setup and the investigations on erosive wear resistance of AlSi10Mg alloy manufactured by AM.

Various aspects such as development, experimentation, and analysis have been covered in the present work to examine the behavior of test coatings under slurry erosion. The primary objective of the present study was to establish the specific mass loss from the test coatings under various slurry environmental conditions and highlights the importance of the addition of alumina in improving the slurry erosion resistance of Ni-TiO2 coating. To attain this objective, two powder compositions, viz. Ni-20TiO2 and Ni-15TiO2-5Al2O3 were deposited onto the CA6NM grade hydro-turbine steel using high velocity frame spray process. The microstructural characterization of the coatings was done by employing surface roughness tester, scanning electron microscope/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction techniques, whereas mechanical analysis was carried out using micro-hardness and bond strength tester. The slurry erosion tests were performed using an indigenously fabricated high speed slurry erosion test rig at different levels of rotational speed, average particle size of erodent, and slurry concentration in order to explore their effects on slurry erosion performance of test coatings. The slurry erosion results, as well as scanning electron microscope observations of eroded specimens, revealed higher slurry erosion resistance of Ni-15TiO2-5Al2O3 coating in comparison with Ni-20TiO2 coating. Furthermore, each operational parameter was found to have a proportional effect on specific mass loss in case of both the coatings.
