Popis:	Two different W-Co-C powders were used in three deposition devices, the Super D-Gun, Jet Kote, and JP-5000 to produce coatings for laboratory immersion tests in molten zinc and %55Al-Zn. Resistance was evaluated as time to failure. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to characterize the structures ssid failure mechanism. All coatings were found to fail when the molten metal breached the coating thickness at weak spots and spread out over the underlying interface to lift the coating away from the underlying 316L substrate. These weak spots were "pits" on one Super D-Gun coating (the most resistant coating) and cracks on all the other coatings. No diffusion of zinc through the tungsten carbide coatings was observed.
