Abstract Thermal spray coating layers were prepared on the carbon steel plates with iron-chrome-boron alloy powders using a detonation gun under various fuel gas contents. The coating layer was composed of Fe rich Fe-Cr solid solution and (Cr. Fe)_xB particles, which had relatively a tow friction coefficient such as 0.05 and showed high wear resistance. The transition from crystalline to amorphous phase occurred during the wear treatment. TEM observation revealed that Fe-Cr solid solution phase with super-saturated B and Si was one of the main contributors for the transition. Oxide inclusions formed at an excess fuel gas condition may impede the crystalline to amorphous transition by lowering the solute content in Fe-Cr solid solution phase.
