The results show that the corrosive wear resistance of the coating with 5.0 wt% Mo is better than those of other coatings. During the corrosive wear process, the corrosion and wear effects are combined. The corrosive wear resistance is closely related to the microstructure of the coating.展开更多

The phase transformation in the heat treatment process was analyzed by high temperature metallographic microscope, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction, and the microhardness after the post heat treatment was tested by microhardness tester. The results show that the microstructure of brazing BNi-2 brazing coating is mainly CrB phase, Ni solid solution phase and eutectic phase of Ni_(3)B and Ni_(3)Si. After brazing,the overall hardness value is higher, generally higher than 510 HV, and the microhardness in some areas is higher than 700 HV. After quenching, the solid solution phase of Ni increased, and the eutectic phase of Ni and Ni_(3)Si decreased, leading to the softening of the brazing coating, the area whose microhardness in the range of 342 HV–454 HV increased. After tempering the brazed coating samples, the eutectic phases of Ni and Ni_(3)Si grew and the hardness recovered, but the overall hardness distribution was still lower than the brazing one. The results of the brazing post-heat treatment test show that the post-welding heat treatment will bring adverse effects on the hardness distribution of the coating, which may affect the wear resistance of the coating.展开更多

The results showed that a Ni-based cellular microstructure was bridged by ＂fiber-like＂ products. A high microhardness of Hv 856 was achieved after 400℃ heat treatment, which is nine times that of copper substrates （Hv 95）. Nucleation, growth, and fusion of Ni atoms along the linear direction, induced by a linear-type cit- rate-metal structural ＂molecule template＂, led to in-situ growth of Ni-based fibers between cellular microspheres. After 400℃ heat treatment, the precipitation of NiP and Ni3P hard phases contributed to the high microhardness of Ni-based coatings.展开更多

The microstructure and chemical composition of the coatings were investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, differential thermal analysis （DTA）, scanning and transmission electron microscopy （SEM and TEM） equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy （EDS）. The wear resistance of the coatings was tested by thrust washer testing. The mechanisms of the decomposition, dissolution, and precipitation of primary carbides, and their influences on the wear resistance have been discussed. The results indicate that the coating sintered at 1175℃ is composed of fine WC particles, coarse M6C （M=Ni, Fe, Co, etc.） carbides, and discrete borides dispersed in solid solution. Upon increasing the sintering temperature to 1225℃, the microstructure reveals few incompletely dissolved WC particles trapped in larger M6C, Cr-rich lamellar M23C6, and M3C2 in the austenite matrix. M23C6 and M3C2 precipitates are formed in both the γ/M6C grain boundary and the matrix. These large-sized and lamellar brittle phases tend to weaken the wear resistance of the composite coatings. The wear behavior is controlled simultaneously by both abrasive wear and adhesive wear. Among them, abrasive wear plays a major role in the wear process of the coating sintered at 1175℃, while the effect of adhesive wear is predominant in the coating sintered at 1225℃.展开更多

Electrodeposited coatings were produced by using a pulse electrodeposition method. Tribological experiments were conducted by using a linear reciprocating ball on fiat sliding tribometer. Experimental results confirmed that the wear and friction resistance properties were significantly enhanced by doping of nano-effects in the lubricating oil and composite coating. The addition of Al2O3 nanoparticles in the lubricating oil showed the best tribological properties, followed by Ni-Al2O3 composite coatings and nano-oil with graphene. The surface morphology and microstructure of electrodeposited coatings were examined by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The wear mechanisms of these coatings subjected to tribological testing were investigated by post-test surface analyses. This research provides a novel approach to design durable nano-coatings for tribological applications in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, locomotive and renewable energy technologies.展开更多

The microstructure and tribological properties of the composite coatings were researched. The results show that the composite coatings mainly consist of γ-Ni, α-Al2O3, γ-Al2O3 and rutile-TiO2 etc, and exhibit lower friction coefficients and wear losses than the Ni-based alloy coatings at different loads and speeds. The composite coating bears low contact stress at 3 N and its wear mechanism is micro-cutting wear. As loads increase to 6-12 N, the contact stress is higher than the elastic limit stress of worn surface, and the wear mechanisms change into multi-plastic deformation wear, micro-brittle fracture wear and abrasive wear. With the increase of speeds, the contact temperature of worn surface increases. The composite coating experiences multi-plastic deformation wear, fatigue wear and adhesive wear.展开更多

An attempt was made to correlate the thermodynamic predictions and experimental observation. The micro- structure and the microhardness profile across the coating were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, energy dispersive spectroscopy （EDS）, and a hardness tester. It is found that the coating mainly consists of a large number of reinforcements （black blocky TiB2, flower-like or equiaxial TiC, and fine acicular CrB） and the 7 matrix. The hardness of TiB2, TiC, and CrB reinforcements is much higher than that of the 7 matrix. The dispersive distribu- tion of such high hardness reinforcements causes the increase in hardness of the whole coating. The average value of the hard- ness is approximately Hv0.2 700 in the coating. The hardness of the coating is obviously higher than that of the substrate due to the dispersion strengthening of reinforcements.展开更多

By X-ray diffraction, SEM and EDX, the microstructure and phase structure of section of coating and the microstructure near the interface between coating and matrix were investigated, and the effect of RE on microstructure of coating was also discussed. The results show that the microstructure of the NiCrBSi alloy coating is composed of Ni-based solid solution and a lot of massive, globular and needle secondary phases CrB, Ni_3B, Cr_7C_3, Cr_(23)C_6 among the solid solution. The metallurgical binding between steel matrix and coating is realized. RE makes needle phase of alloy coating vanish. New phases of NiB and Cr_(6.5)Ni_(2.5)Si are precipitated from alloy coating, and secondary phases of alloy coating are sphericized. Consequently, RE also hinders the diffusion of Ni, Cr and Si atoms from coating to matrix and Fe atoms from matrix to coating, holds back the dilution of Fe for NiCrBSi alloy coating, and assures the chemical composition of the alloy coating.展开更多

The mic...The in situ synthesized NbC particles reinforced Ni-based alloy composite coating was produced by laser cladding a precursor mixture of Ni-based alloy powder, graphite and niobium powders on a steel substrate. The microstructure, phase composition and wear property of the composite coating were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, X-ray diffraction （XRD） and dry sliding wear test. The experiment results show that the composite coating is homogeneous and free from cracks, and about 0.8 mm thick. The microstructure of the composite coating is mainly composed of NbC particles, CrB type chromium borides, 7-Ni primary dendrites, and interdendritic eutectics. CrB phases often nucleate and grow on the surface of NbC particles or in their close vicinity. NbC particles are formed via in situ reaction between niobium and graphite in the molten pool during the laser cladding process and they are commonly precipitated in three kinds of morphologies, such as quadrangle, cluster, and flower-like shape. Compared with the pure Ni- based alloy coating, the microhardness of the composite coating is increased about 38%, giving a high average hardness of HV0.21000, and the wear rate of the composite coating is decreased by about 32%, respectively. These are attributed to the presence of in situ synthesized NbC particles and their well distribution in the coating.展开更多

It is found that the coating mainly consists of a large number of reinforcements （black blocky TiB2, flower-like or equiaxial TiC, and fine acicular CrB） and the 7 matrix. The hardness of TiB2, TiC, and CrB reinforcements is much higher than that of the 7 matrix. The dispersive distribu- tion of such high hardness reinforcements causes the increase in hardness of the whole coating. The average value of the hard- ness is approximately Hv0.2 700 in the coating. The hardness of the coating is obviously higher than that of the substrate due to the dispersion strengthening of reinforcements.

文摘Ni-based composite coatings with a high content of tungsten carbides(Stelcar65composite coatings)were synthesized by plasma transferred arc(PTA)hardfacing.The welding parameters of Stelcar65composite coatings were optimized by orthogonal tests.The PTA welding parameters including welding current,powder feed rate and welding speed have significant influence on the tungsten carbide degradation.The values for the optimum welding current,powder feed rate and welding speed were determined to be100A,25g/min and40mm/min,respectively.The produced WC/Ni-based composite coatings were crack-and degradation-free.The microstructure of deposited layers,as well as the microstructure and microhardness of the optimal coating were further analyzed.
文摘The Ni-based self-fluxing alloy coating containing RE was acquired by the technique of vacuum melting on the hypoeutectoid steel (Fe-0.45%C) matrix. By X-ray diffraction, SEM and EDX, the microstructure and phase structure of section of coating and the microstructure near the interface between coating and matrix were investigated, and the effect of RE on microstructure of coating was also discussed. The results show that the microstructure of the NiCrBSi alloy coating is composed of Ni-based solid solution and a lot of massive, globular and needle secondary phases CrB, Ni_3B, Cr_7C_3, Cr_(23)C_6 among the solid solution. The metallurgical binding between steel matrix and coating is realized. RE makes needle phase of alloy coating vanish. New phases of NiB and Cr_(6.5)Ni_(2.5)Si are precipitated from alloy coating, and secondary phases of alloy coating are sphericized. Consequently, RE also hinders the diffusion of Ni, Cr and Si atoms from coating to matrix and Fe atoms from matrix to coating, holds back the dilution of Fe for NiCrBSi alloy coating, and assures the chemical composition of the alloy coating.

文摘The as-deposited coating-substrate microstructure has been identified to substantially influence the high-cycle fatigue(HCF)behavior of Ni-based single-crystal(SX)superalloys at 900℃,but the impact of degraded microstructure on the HCF behavior remains unclear.In this work,a PtAl-coated third-generation SX superalloy with sheet specimen was thermal-exposed at 1100℃ with different durations and then subjected to HCF tests at 900℃.The influence of microstructural degradation on the HCF life and crack initiation were clarified by analyzing the development of microcracks and coating-substrate microstructure.Notably,the HCF life of the thermal-exposed coated alloy increased abnormally,which was attributed to the transformation of the fatigue crack initiation site from surface mi-crocracks to internal micropores compared to the as-deposited coated alloy.Although the nucleation and growth of surface microcracks occurred along the grain boundaries in the coating and the interdiffusion zone(IDZ)for both the as-deposited and the thermal-exposed coated alloys,remarkable differences of the microcrack growth into the substrate adjacent to the IDZ were observed,changing the crack initiation site.Specifically,the surface microcracks grew into the substrate through the cracking of the non-protective oxide layers in the as-deposited coated alloy.In comparison,the hinderance of the surface microcracks growth was found in the thermal-exposed coated al-loy,due to the formation of a protective Al_(2)O_(3) layer within the microcrack and theγ′rafting in the substrate close to the IDZ.This study will aid in improving the HCF life prediction model for the coated SX superalloys.

文摘The in situ synthesized NbC particles reinforced Ni-based alloy composite coating was produced by laser cladding a precursor mixture of Ni-based alloy powder, graphite and niobium powders on a steel substrate. The microstructure, phase composition and wear property of the composite coating were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, X-ray diffraction （XRD） and dry sliding wear test. The experiment results show that the composite coating is homogeneous and free from cracks, and about 0.8 mm thick. The microstructure of the composite coating is mainly composed of NbC particles, CrB type chromium borides, 7-Ni primary dendrites, and interdendritic eutectics. CrB phases often nucleate and grow on the surface of NbC particles or in their close vicinity. NbC particles are formed via in situ reaction between niobium and graphite in the molten pool during the laser cladding process and they are commonly precipitated in three kinds of morphologies, such as quadrangle, cluster, and flower-like shape. Compared with the pure Ni- based alloy coating, the microhardness of the composite coating is increased about 38%, giving a high average hardness of HV0.21000, and the wear rate of the composite coating is decreased by about 32%, respectively. These are attributed to the presence of in situ synthesized NbC particles and their well distribution in the coating.

文摘This study aimed to effectively reduce the cracking susceptibility of the laser clad coating by enhancing the environmental temperature during laser cladding,and reveal the residual stress distribution in different depths of the coating.The TiNi/Ti2Ni-based coatings were prepared on Ti6Al4V by laser cladding at different environmental temperatures of25,400,600and800°C.The changes in residual stress along the depth of the coatings were investigated in detail by the nanoindentation method.Results showed that the average residual stress of2.90GPa in the coating prepared at25°C was largest.With the increase in environmental temperature,the average residual stress was reduced to1.34GPa(400°C),0.70GPa(600°C)and0GPa(800°C).For all the coatings,the residual stress was increased with increasing the distance from the coating surface.Enhancing the environmental temperature can effectively reduce the cracking susceptibility of the coatings.

文摘NiCrAlY coatings are widely applied on various alloy components to enhance oxidation and/or corrosion resistance at high temperatures.However,elements interdiffusion occurs between them due to composition difference.Although various diffusion barriers(DBs)are reported,this problem is still far from completely solved as most ceramic barriers suffer from poor adherence,while the metallic barriers play a limited role.In this study,NiCrAlY coating was deposited onto a second-generation single-crystal superalloy by arc ion plating.A novel simple method is provided to address elements interdiffusion.By pre-oxidation at a moderate temperature,a thin scale of Ni(Co)O forms at the alloy surface.It transforms to be an alumina/NiCoCr alloy/alumina sandwich by an in-situ reaction with the overlaying NiCrAlY coating and the alloy substrate at high service temperatures,which offers good barrier ability in conjunction with strong adhesion.In the presence of such an alumina/alloy/alumina DB,the NiCrAlY coating provides high resistance to oxidation and scale spallation for the alloy substrate.

文摘Ni-based composite coatings incorporated with nano/micron SiC particles were fabricated via electrochemical co-deposition in Watts bath,followed by the evaluation of their mechanical and anti-corrosion properties.The micrographic observations suggest that the SiC particles with various sizes can be well incorporated to the Ni substrate.X-ray diffraction(XRD)patterns indicate that SiC particles with smaller sizes could weaken the preferential growth of Ni along(200)facet.In addition,it is found that the incorporated SiC particles with medium micron sizes(8 and 1.5μm)could significantly enhance the micro-hardness of the Ni composite coatings.Nevertheless,electrochemical measurements demonstrate that micron-sized SiC particles would weaken the corrosion resistance of Ni composite coatings ascribed to the structure defects induced.In contrast,the combined incorporation of nanosized(50 nm)SiC particles with medium micron(1.5μm)ones is capable of promoting the compactness of the composite coatings,which is beneficial to the long-term corrosion resistance with negligible micro-hardness loss.

文摘A Cr-modified aluminide coating is prepared on a Ni-based superalloy using arc ion plating and subsequent pack cementation aluminizing.Hot corrosion behavior of the Cr-modified aluminide coating exposed to molten Na2SO4/K2SO4（3：1） or Na2SO4/NaCl（3：1） salts at 900 °C in static air are evaluated as well as the aluminide coating.The results indicate that compared with the aluminide coating,the anti-corrosion properties of the Cr-modified aluminide coating in the both salts are improved,which should be attributed to the beneficial effect of the Cr in the coating.The corrosion mechanism of the Cr-modified aluminide coating,especially the role of Cr in the mixture salt corrosion,is discussed.

文摘An AlSiY coating and two MCrAlY+AlSiY composite coatings with different thickness of MCrAlY interlayer were prepared by arc ion plating(AIP)and vacuum annealing.The isothermal oxidation behavior of coatings at 1100℃ for 300 h was also investigated to characterize the microstructure evolution of coatings during annealing.The composite coatings exhibited a better high-temperature oxidation resistance at 1100℃ .The reason is that the addition of MCrAlY layer can greatly contribute to prevent the diffusion of refractory elements to the outer layer.The inhibition of Al inward diffusion can be much stronger,as the Si content increases in the outer layer during annealing.
