download PDFThe residual stress profiles in Cu and Al coatings sprayed using kinetic metallization to thickness of ~2 mm have been studied. Due to specific parameters of the cold-spray process and particular combination of materials, coatings and substrates, the residual stresses are low with magnitudes of the order of a few tens of MPa. This poses challenges on accuracy and resolution when measuring through-thickness stress distributions. Three experimental techniques – neutron diffraction, X-ray diffraction and a slitting method – were used to measure through-thickness stress distributions in the substrate-coating systems. All three techniques demonstrated acceptable accuracy and resolutions suitable for analyzing stress profiles. Advantages and disadvantages of each technique are discussed.
