The present investigation is an attempt to evaluate the hot corrosion behavior of detonation-gun sprayed coatings of Cr3C2-NiCr, NiCrAlY + 0.4 wt CeO2, and NiCoCrAlYTa on superfer 800H, exposed to low temperature super-heater zone of the coal-fired boiler. The specimens were hanged in the platen super-heater of coal-fired boiler where the gas temperature was around 900 {\^A}oC {\^A}{$\pm$} 10 {\^A}oC. Hot corrosion experiments were performed for 10 cycles, each cycle consisting of 100 h exposure followed by 1 h cooling at ambient temperature. All three coatings deposited on superfer 800H imparted better hot corrosion resistance than the bare uncoated one. The Cr3C2-NiCr coated superalloy performed better than the other two coatings in the given boiler environment. {\^A}{\copyright} Materials Research Society 2015.}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84944096585&doi=10.1557\%2fjmr.2015.264&partnerID=40&md5=d46ffe8b338be065570acfb64680779c}, keywords = {Aluminum alloys; Boiler corrosion; Cerium alloys; Cerium oxide; Chromium alloys; Coal; Coal combustion; Coal fired boilers; Coatings; Cobalt alloys; Combustion knock; Corrosion resistance; Corrosive effects; Detonation; Fossil fuel power plants; High temperature corrosion; Sprayed coatings; Superalloys; Superheater tubes; Tantalum alloys; Temperature; Yttrium alloys, Boiler environments; Coated superalloys; Combustion of coal; Detonation gun; Hot corrosion; Hot corrosion resistance; superfer 800H; Thermal spray coatings, Corrosion resistant coatings}, author = {Kamal, S. and Sharma, K.
