SiO2 and MoSi2 formation on Inconel 625 surface via SiC coating deposited by cold spray

► SiC as oxidation protective layer. ► Cold spray as alternative method to form thin SiC layer. ► Crushed SiC particles are deposited on plastically deformed substrate. ► Thin MoSi2 and SiO2 layers formed beneath SiC restrain Ni-alloys from high temperature oxidation.
