文摘Diamond coatings possess numerous excellent properties,making them desirable materials for high-performance surface applications.However,without a revolutionary surface modification method,the surface roughness and friction behavior of diamond coatings can impede their ability to meet the demanding requirements of advanced engineering surfaces.This study proposed the thermal stress control at coating interfaces and demonstrated a novel process of precise graphenization on conventional diamond coatings surface through laser induction and mechanical cleavage,without causing damage to the metal substrate.Through experiments and simulations,the influence mechanism of surface graphitization and interfacial thermal stress was elucidated,ultimately enabling rapid conversion of the diamond coating surface to graphene while controlling the coating’s thickness and roughness.Compared to the original diamond coatings,the obtained surfaces exhibited a 63%-72%reduction in friction coefficients,all of which were below 0.1,with a minimum of 0.06,and a 59%-67%decrease in specific wear rates.Moreover,adhesive wear in the friction counterpart was significantly inhibited,resulting in a reduction in wear by 49%-83%.This demonstrated a significant improvement in lubrication and inhibition of mechanochemical wear properties.This study provides an effective and cost-efficient avenue to overcome the application bottleneck of engineered diamond surfaces,with the potential to significantly enhance the performance and expand the application range of diamond-coated components.

文摘WC particles reinforced CoCrFeNiMo high-entropy alloy(HEA)composite coatings were prepared on Cr12MoV steel successfully by laser cladding technology to improve the wear resistance of substrates.Effect of WC content on microstructure and wear property of the composite coatings was studied in detail.Large numbers of carbides with four main types:primary carbide crystals,eutectic structures,massive crystals growing along the periphery of the remaining WC particles and incompletely fused WC particles,were found to exist in the WC/CoCrFeNiMo composite coatings.With increasing WC content,the microhardness of coatings is gradually improved while the average friction coefficients follow the opposite trend due to solid solution strengthening and second phase strengthening effect.The maximum microhardness and minimum friction coefficient are HV_(0.2)689.7 and 0.72,respectively,for the composite coating with 30 wt.%WC,the wear resistance of the substrate is improved significantly,the wear mechanisms are spalling wear and abrasive wear due to their high microhardness.

文摘We have developed a superhydrophobic and corrosion-resistant LDH-W/PFDTMS composite coating on the surface of Mg alloy.This composite comprised a tungstate-intercalated(LDH-W)underlayer that was grown at low temperature(relative to hydrothermal reaction conditions)under atmospheric pressure and an outer polysiloxane layer created from a solution containing perfluorodecyltrimethoxysilane(PFDTMS)using a simple immersion method.The successful intercalation of tungstate into the LDH phase and the following formation of the polysiloxane layer were confirmed through X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared(FTIR)spectroscopy,and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).The corrosion resistance of the LDH-W film,both before and after the PFDTMS modification,was evaluated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS),Tafel curves,and immersion experiments.The results showed that Mg coated with LDH-W/PFDTMS exhibited significantly enhanced corrosion protection compared to the unmodified LDHW film,with no apparent signs of corrosion after exposure to 3.5wt%NaCl solution for 15 d.Furthermore,the LDH-W/PFDTMS coating demonstrated superior superhydrophobicity and self-cleaning properties against water and several common beverages,as confirmed by static contact angle and water-repellency tests.These results offer valuable insights into preparing superhydrophobic and corrosion-resistant LDH-based composite coatings on Mg alloy surfaces under relatively mild reaction conditions.

文摘Mg and its alloys show high potential to be applied as implant materials due to their superior properties like biodegradability,bioactivity,biocompatibility,and suitable mechanical behaviors.Nevertheless,the fast and uncontrolled degradation of Mg alloys in biological environment severely restricts their wide applications as biomedical materials.In comparison with alloying,surface coatings can not only improve corrosion resistance but also impart other bio-functional properties to achieve diverse clinical requirements.This review analyzes and summarizes the most recent developments in popular coating technologies,including micro-arc oxidation,electrophoretic deposition,chemical conversion,anodic oxidation,layered double hydroxide,and sol-gel coatings.Considering inevitable damages under complex service conditions,smart self-healing coatings are also introduced in each coating technology.The existing issues and future perspectives are finally discussed to facilitate applications of Mg alloys as biomedical materials in the medical industry.

文摘Drug-eluting magnesium(Mg)alloy stents have a slower degradation rate and lower restenosis rate compared with uncoated stents,demonstrating good clinical efficacy.However,the release of anti-hyperplasia drugs from coatings delays endothelial tissue repair,thus leading to late stent thrombosis.To address these issues,a dual self-healed coating with various biological properties was fabricated on magnesium fluoride/polydopamine(MgF_(2)/PDA)-treated Mg alloys by spraying-assisted layer-by-layer(LBL)self-assembly of chitosan(CS),gallic acid(GA),and 3-aminobenzeneboronic acid-modified hyaluronic acid(HA-ABBA).The LBL coating,approximately 1.50μm thick,exhibited a uniform morphology with good adhesion strength(~1065 mN).The annual corrosion rate(Pi)of LBL samples was~1400 times slower than that of the Mg substrate,due to the physical barrier function provided by MgF_(2)/PDA layers and the dual self-healed ability of LBL layers.The rapid self-healing ability(with a healing period of~4 h under dynamic/static conditions)resulted from the synergistic interplay between the recombination of diverse chemical bonds within the LBL coating and the coordination of LBL-released GA with Mg2+,as corroborated by computer simulations.Compared with the drug-eluting coatings,the LBL sample demonstrated substantial advantages in anti-oxidation,anti-denaturation of fibrinogen,anti-platelet adhesion,anti-inflammation,anti-hyperplasia,and promoted-endothelialization.These benefits effectively address the limitations associated with drug-eluting coatings.

文摘A straightforward,highly effective,and environmentally friendly technique was investigated for protecting carbon steel surfaces from corrosion,i.e.,depositing Cu-Ni alloy coatings on the workpiece’s surface to impede corrosive medium.The effects of current density and copper ion concentration(Cu^(2+))on the composition,morphology,and properties of the coating were analyzed using scanning electron microscope,X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer,Vickers hardness tester,friction and wear tester,and electrochemical testing.Results show that a cauliflower-like Ni-rich protrusion structure appears on the coating surface.The lower current density and Cu^(2+)concentration affect the Vickers hardness and wear resistance of the coating by altering the microstructure and Cu/Ni content,both leading to a decrease in hardness and wear resistance.When the current density is 10 mA·cm^(-2)and the Cu^(2+)concentration is 0.1 mol·L^(−1),the corrosion current density of the deposited sample reaches 1.389×10^(−5)A·cm^(-2),and its surface corrosion damage is reduced compared to the uncoated sample after 24 h of salt spray test.Research on the deposition mechanism indicates that Cu^(2+)undergoes instantaneous nucleation under diffusion control,tending to grow vertically and form cauliflower-like protrusions,while Ni^(2+)is discharged uniformly across the surface under electrochemical control.

文摘TaN coatings were deposited on Ti bipolar plates by magnetron sputtering to improve corrosion resistance and service life.The influence of N_(2) flow rate on the surface morphology,hydrophobicity,crystallinity,corrosion resistance,and interfacial contact resistance of TaN coatings was studied.Results show that as the N_(2) flow rate increases,the roughness of TaN coatings decreases firstly and then increases,and the hydrophobicity increases firstly and then decreases.At the N_(2) flow rate of 3 mL/min,TaN coating with larger grain size presents lower roughness and high hydrophobicity.The coating possesses the lowest corrosion current density of 2.82µA·cm^(−2) and the highest corrosion potential of−0.184 V vs.SCE in the simulated proton exchange membrane water electrolyser environment.After a potentiostatic polarization test for 10 h,a few corrosion pits are observed on the TaN coatings deposited at an N_(2) flow rate of 3 mL/min.After 75 h of electrolytic water performance testing,the TaN coating on bipolar plate improves the corrosion resistance and thus enhances the electrolysis efficiency(68.87%),greatly reducing the cost of bipolar plates.

文摘The high-entropy alloy composite coatings AlCu_(2)Ti(NiCr)_(2)-(WC)_(x)(x denotes powder feeding speeds,including 0,25,50,and 75 r/min)were prepared by plasma cladding using a hybrid mode of AlCu_(2)(NiCr)_(2)Ti cable-type welding wire(CWW)and tungsten carbide(WC)powder.The effect of WC powder feeding speed on the microstructure,hardness,and wear properties of the prepared coatings was investigated.The results show that the coatings consist of body-centered cubic main phases and face-centered cubic secondary phases,with carbide reinforcement phases formed due to the addition of WC.The hardness and wear resistance of the coatings are significantly improved compared to the TC11 substrate.When WC powder feeding speed is set at 50 r/min,the coating exhibits optimal wear resistance,with a minimum volume wear rate of 8.5869×10^(-6)mm^(3)·N^(-1)·m^(-1),greatly improving the wear properties of TC11 surface.The coincident CWW-powder plasma cladding provides a viable method for the preparation of highentropy alloy composite coatings with enhanced wear resistance.

文摘Semiconductors and related fields today hold vast application prospects.The semiconductor wafer fabrication process involves steps such as substrate preparation and epitaxy,which occur in high-temperature corrosive environments.Consequently,components like crucibles,susceptors and wafer carriers require carbon-based materials such as graphite and carbon-carbon composites.However,traditional carbon materials underperform in these extreme conditions,failing to effectively address the challenges.This leads to issues including product contamination and shortened equipment lifespan.Therefore,effective protection of carbon materials is crucial.This paper reviews current research status on the preparation methods and properties of corrosion-resistant coatings within relevant domestic and international fields.Preparation methods include various techniques such as physical vapor deposition(PVD),chemical vapor deposition(CVD)and the sol-gel method.Furthermore,it offers perspectives on future research directions for corrosion-resistant coated components in semiconductor equipment.These include exploring novel coating materials,improving coating preparation processes,enhancing coating corrosion resistance,as well as further investigating the interfacial interactions between coatings and carbon substrates to achieve better adhesion and compatibility.

文摘Oxidation behavior of NiCrAlY nanocrystalline coatings with different Cr contents at 1050 and 1150℃is investigated.The results indicate that Al2O3 scales can be formed on NiCrAlY nanocrystalline coatings after oxidation at high temperature.And their formation and thickening cannot be affected by the change of Cr contents in NiCrAlY coatings.During service,Cr in the coating can affect the microstructure of Ni-based single crystal superalloy.At 1050℃,Cr in the coating can diffuse into the superalloy,destroy its microstructure,and lead to the formation of interdiffusion zone and the precipitation of needle-like topologically closed-packed phase.The higher the Cr content in NiCrAlY the coating is,the more obvious the phenomenon is.However,after oxidation at 1150℃for 100 h,no obvious changes were observed in the microstructure of CMSX-4 single crystal superalloy beneath the three kinds of NiCrAlY nanocrystalline coatings.
文摘To improve the oxidation resistance of HfB_(2)-SiC coatings on carbon/carbon composites at 1700°C in air,CeO_(2) was introduced to improve oxygen blocking and its mechanism was investigated.During the rapid oxidation stage,CeO_(2) accelerated the formation of a multiphase glass layer on the coating surface.The maximum oxidation rates of CeO_(2)-HfB2-SiC coatings with 1%,3%,and 5%CeO_(2) were 24.1%,20.3%,and 53.2%higher than that of the unmodified HfB2-SiC coating,respectively.In the stable oxidation stage,the maximum oxidation rates of coatings with 1%and 3%CeO_(2) decreased by 31.4%and 21.9%,respectively,demonstrating adequate inert protection.CeO_(2) is a“coagulant”and“stabilizer”in the composite glass layer.However,increasing the CeO_(2) content accelerates the reaction between the SiO_(2) glass phase and SiC,leading to a higher SiO_(2) consumption and reduced self-healing ability of the glass layer.The 1%CeO_(2)-60%HfB2-39%SiC coating showed improved glass layer viscosity and stability,moderate SiO_(2) consumption,and better self-healing ability,significantly boosting the oxidation protection of the coating.
文摘To verify the wear resistance and erosion resistance of Ti-doped Ta_(2)O_(5)coating(TTO),a series of TTOs were prepared by magnetron sputtering technology by controlling the power of the Ti target.The change of growth structure,microstructure,and tribological properties of TTOs with Ti target power was studied.After the erosion test,the variation of erosion damage behavior of TTOs with mechanical properties under different erosion conditions was further studied.The results show that the TTOs eliminate the roughness,voids,and defects in the material due to the mobility of the adsorbed atoms during the growth process,and a flat and dense smooth surface is obtained.Tribological tests show that the TTOs are mainly characterized by plastic deformation and microcrack wear mechanism.Higher Ti target power can improve the wear resistance of TTOs.Erosion test results reveal that the impact crater,furrow,micro-cutting,brittle spalling,and crack formation are the main wear mechanisms of the TTOs samples under erosion conditions.

文摘The corrosion degradation of organic coatings in tropical marine atmospheric environments results in substantial economic losses across various industries.The complexity of a dynamic environment,combined with high costs,extended experimental periods,and limited data,places a limit on the comprehension of this process.This study addresses this challenge by investigating the corrosion de-gradation of damaged organic coatings in a tropical marine environment using an atmospheric corrosion monitoring sensor and a random forest(RF)model.For damage simulation,a polyurethane coating applied to a Fe/graphite corrosion sensor was intentionally scratched and exposed to the marine atmosphere for over one year.Pearson correlation analysis was performed for the collection and filtering of en-vironmental and corrosion current data.According to the RF model,the following specific conditions contributed to accelerated degrada-tion:relative humidity(RH)above 80%and temperatures below 22.5℃,with the risk increasing significantly when RH exceeded 90%.High RH and temperature exhibited a cumulative effect on coating degradation.A high risk of corrosion occurred in the nighttime.The RF model was also used to predict the coating degradation process using environmental data as input parameters,with the accuracy show-ing improvement when the duration of influential environmental ranges was considered.
