Nickel-Graphite Powder 15-45 µm

Thermal Spray Nickel-Graphite Powder for Abradable Coatings

This nickel-graphite composite powder is engineered for applications where a controlled, abradable surface is required. The 15-45 µm particle size range is typical for high-energy thermal spray processes, promoting consistent melting and a homogeneous coating microstructure. The graphite component provides natural dry lubrication and friability, allowing the as-sprayed coating to be worn in a predictable manner by a mating component, such as a turbine blade tip, without causing damage to the blade itself.

Process Compatibility and Application

This powder grade is supplied for use across common thermal spray systems. Combustion-based processes like HVOF and flame spray, as well as atmospheric plasma spray (APS), are potential application methods. The optimal process depends on the specific coating properties required, such as bond strength, porosity, and hardness. Our technical team can assist in matching the powder to your specific spray equipment and performance targets upon request.

Pack Sizes and Handling

To maintain powder integrity and prevent contamination, this product is available in sealed industrial containers. Standard pack options include 5 kg tins, 10 kg tins, and 25 kg pails. Proper storage in a cool, dry environment is recommended to prevent moisture absorption and preserve free-flowing characteristics for consistent powder feeding.
