Conventional Fe-C alloy parts used in mechanical transmission and braking systems exposed to the external environment often suffer from wear and corrosion failures.Surface coating strengthening technologies have been ...Conventional Fe-C alloy parts used in mechanical transmission and braking systems exposed to the external environment often suffer from wear and corrosion failures.Surface coating strengthening technologies have been explored to improve the surface performance and prolong service life of these parts.Among these technologies,laser cladding has shown promise in producing Fe-based alloy coatings with superior interfacial bonding properties to the Fe-C alloy substrate.Additionally,the microstructure of the Fe-based alloy coating is more uniform and the grain size is finer than that of surfacing welding,thermal spraying,and plasma cladding,and the oxide film of alloying elements on the coating surface can improve the coating performance.However,Fe-based alloy coatings produced by laser cladding typically exhibit lower hardness,lower wear resistance,corrosion resistance,and oxidation resistance compared to coatings based on Co and Ni alloys.Moreover,these coatings are susceptible to defects such as pores and cracks.To address these limitations,the incorporation of rare-earth oxides through doping in the laser cladding process has garnered significant attention.This approach has demonstrated substantial improvements in the microstructure and properties of Fe-based alloy coatings.This paper reviewed recent research on the structure and properties of laser-cladded Fe-based alloy coatings doped with various rare earth oxides,including La_(2)O_(3),CeO_(2),and Y_(2)O_(3).Specifically,it discussed the effects of rare earth oxides and their concentrations on the structure,hardness,friction,wear,corrosion,and oxidation characteristics of these coatings.Furthermore,the mechanisms by which rare earth oxides influence the coating’s structure and properties were summarized.This review aimed to serve as a valuable reference for the application and advancement of laser cladding technology for rare earth modified Fe-based alloy coatings.展开更多

The results show that the addition of Y_(2)O_(3) changes the proportion of the phase but does not change its type. The average grain size is only 1/4.7 of that of the high entropy alloy(HEA) coating, and the fine-grained strengthening leads to increases in the microhardness and wear resistance of 21.8% and 26.9%, respectively. The addition of Y_(2)O_(3) enhances the denseness and bonding properties of the oxide and corrosion product layers, reducing the oxidation and hot corrosion rates by 60.3% and 40.3%, respectively. The addition of Y_(2)O_(3) doubles the corrosion resistance which is attributed to the refinement of the grains, the increased proportion of HCP and TiN, and the weakening of galvanic coupling corrosion.展开更多

文摘The failure of mechanical components is mainly caused by three key mechanisms:wear,corrosion,and fatigue.Among these failure modes,wear of mechanical components notably increases energy consumption and leads to substantial economic losses.Fe-Cr-C-B-Ti-Y wear-resistant cladding metals were prepared by the plasma cladding method.The wear performance of the cladding metals was analyzed using an MLS-23 rubber wheel wet sand wear tester.X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscope,electron backscatter diffraction,and transmission electron microscope were employed to investigate the phase composition and microstructure of the cladding metals,followed by a discussion of their strengthening and wear mechanisms.The results indicate that the microstructure of Fe-Cr-C-B-Ti-Y cladding metals is composed of austeniteγ-Fe,M_(23)(C,B)_(6)eutectic carbide,and TiC hard phase.As the Y_(2)O_(3)content increases,the hardness and wear resistance of the cladding metal show a trend of first increasing and then decreasing.When the Y_(2)O_(3)content is 0.4wt%,the precipitation of TiC hard phase and M_(23)(C,B)_(6)-type eutectic carbides reaches maximum,and the grain size is the finest.The cladding metal exhibits optimal formability,featuring the smallest wetting angle of 52.2°.Under this condition,the Rockwell hardness value of the cladding metal is 89.7 HRC,and the wear mass loss is 0.27 g.The dominant wear mechanism of cladding metals is abrasive wear,and the material removal process involves micro-cutting and plowing.

文摘In order to enhance the wear resistance of 45 steel,a WC/Stellite 6 composite layer with 30%WC which with different morphologies(spherical and irregular)was prepared on the surface of 45 steel by laser cladding technology.The effects of WC morphology on the phase composition,microstructure,microhardness,and wear resistance of the cladding layer were compared and analyzed.The res-ults show that the surface of the cladding layer was well formed.M_(23)C_(6),M_(7)C_(3),WC,and W_(2)C exist in both cladding layers.With the ad-dition of spherical WC,the diffraction peaks of γ-Co appear on the left side of the main peak of Co6W6C.The area of intergranular carbides accounts for a large proportion in the surface layer which with the fine grains.During the process of laser cladding the spherical WC particles with loose structure are prone to melting,including their interior.However,the melting amount of irregular WC particles is finite,which only occurs on the periphery of the particles,and the particle interior is relatively intact.The microhard-ness of two cladding layers gradient increases from the substrate to the surface layer.The surface layer added spherical WC has high-er microhardness,which reaches 790.6 HV1.Nevertheless,the wear resistance of the cladding layer added irregular WC is better than that of the cladding layer added spherical WC.The reason is because that the incompletely melted irregular WC particles are uni-formly distributed in the cladding layer which provided the support points for the cladding layer matrix during the wear process,the wear of the cladding layer by the grinding pair is reduced consequently.

文摘Conventional Fe-C alloy parts used in mechanical transmission and braking systems exposed to the external environment often suffer from wear and corrosion failures.Surface coating strengthening technologies have been explored to improve the surface performance and prolong service life of these parts.Among these technologies,laser cladding has shown promise in producing Fe-based alloy coatings with superior interfacial bonding properties to the Fe-C alloy substrate.Additionally,the microstructure of the Fe-based alloy coating is more uniform and the grain size is finer than that of surfacing welding,thermal spraying,and plasma cladding,and the oxide film of alloying elements on the coating surface can improve the coating performance.However,Fe-based alloy coatings produced by laser cladding typically exhibit lower hardness,lower wear resistance,corrosion resistance,and oxidation resistance compared to coatings based on Co and Ni alloys.Moreover,these coatings are susceptible to defects such as pores and cracks.To address these limitations,the incorporation of rare-earth oxides through doping in the laser cladding process has garnered significant attention.This approach has demonstrated substantial improvements in the microstructure and properties of Fe-based alloy coatings.This paper reviewed recent research on the structure and properties of laser-cladded Fe-based alloy coatings doped with various rare earth oxides,including La_(2)O_(3),CeO_(2),and Y_(2)O_(3).Specifically,it discussed the effects of rare earth oxides and their concentrations on the structure,hardness,friction,wear,corrosion,and oxidation characteristics of these coatings.Furthermore,the mechanisms by which rare earth oxides influence the coating’s structure and properties were summarized.This review aimed to serve as a valuable reference for the application and advancement of laser cladding technology for rare earth modified Fe-based alloy coatings.

文摘The effects of Y_(2)O_(3) on the microstructure, microhardness, wear resistance, high-temperature oxidation resistance, hot corrosion resistance, and electrochemical corrosion behaviour of CoCrFeNiTiNb high entropy alloy coatings formed on Ti-6Al-4V alloy surfaces were studied. The results show that the addition of Y_(2)O_(3) changes the proportion of the phase but does not change its type. The average grain size is only 1/4.7 of that of the high entropy alloy(HEA) coating, and the fine-grained strengthening leads to increases in the microhardness and wear resistance of 21.8% and 26.9%, respectively. The addition of Y_(2)O_(3) enhances the denseness and bonding properties of the oxide and corrosion product layers, reducing the oxidation and hot corrosion rates by 60.3% and 40.3%, respectively. The addition of Y_(2)O_(3) doubles the corrosion resistance which is attributed to the refinement of the grains, the increased proportion of HCP and TiN, and the weakening of galvanic coupling corrosion.
文摘Four kinds of Ni-xCr alloy laser cladding layers(x=20,40,60 and 80,wt%)were prepared by high-speed laser cladding technique,and the relationship between microstructure and wear resistance of Ni-Cr alloy laser cladding layers with different Cr contents was investigated.The results show that the four Ni-Cr alloy laser cladding layers all have reticulated dendritic structures.Among them,Ni-20Cr and Ni-40Cr are single-phaseγ-(Ni,Cr)solid solutions,and their wear mechanisms are adhesive wear and abrasive wear.With the increase in Cr content,Ni-60Cr and Ni-80Cr areγ-(Ni,Cr)phase and Cr phase,as well as Cr-rich precipitates,and their wear mechanisms are adhesive wear,abrasive wear and fatigue wear.A moderate increase in Cr content can enhance the hardness and wear resistance of Ni-Cr alloy laser cladding layer.However,excessive addition of Cr results in the precipitation of Cr-rich precipitates.The hardness of these precipitates is 2430.4 MPa,which is lower than the hardness of the Ni-60Cr matrix(4024.86 MPa)and Ni-80Cr matrix(7022.68 MPa).A hardness transition zone exists between the Cr-rich precipitates and the matrix.Cracks are likely to initiate and expand in this zone,leading to deep spalling,which is not conducive to the wear-resistant properties of the laser cladding layer.Ni-80Cr has the highest hardness,but its high Cr content leads to a large number of penetrating cracks and Cr-rich precipitates on the surface,ultimately resulting in the worst wear resistance.Ni-60Cr exhibits the best wear resistance due to its high hardness and dense microstructure.

文摘(Zr_(0.53)Al_(0.1)Ni_(0.05)Cu_(0.3)Ti_(0.02))_(99)Y_1(at%)coating with amorphous layer of about 180μm thick was prepared on a steel substrate by using laser cladding method.The coating is compact and shows good metallurgical bonding with substrate.The microstructure,microhardness and corrosion behavior along the depth from the coating surface to the substrate were investigated.It is found that a gradient structure consisted of amorphous surface layer,amorphous-crystalline transitional layer and substrate is formed after the laser cladding.The microhardness and corrosion behavior exhibit variation with the microstructural evolution at different depths from the coating surface.The microhardness and corrosion resistance in 3.5 wt%NaCl solution of the amorphous surface layer are comparable to those of the as-cast Zr-based BMG with the same composition,and higher than those of the steel substrate.

文摘The effect of the gradient content of Co element on the solidification process of Cu-based alloy under deep under cooling conditions was explored.The non-equilibrium solidification structure of the under cooled alloy samples were analyzed.It is found that the rapidly solidified alloy has undergone twice grain refinement during the undercooling process.Characterization and significance of the maximum undercooling refinement structure of Cu60Ni35Co5 at T=253 K were analyzed.High-density defects were observed,such as dislocations,stacking faults networks,and twinning structures.The standard FCC diffraction pattern represents that it is still a single-phase structure.Based on the metallographic diagram,EBSD and TEM data analysis,it is illustrated that the occurrence of grain refinement under high undercooling is due to stress induced recrystallization.In addition,the laser cladding technology is used to coat Co-based alloy(Stellite12) coating on 304 stainless steel substrate;the microstructure of the coating cross-section was analyzed.It was found that the microstructure of the cross-section is presented as columnar crystals,planar crystals,and disordered growth direction,so that the coating has better hardness and wear resistance.By electrochemical corrosion of the substrate and coating,it can be seen that the Co and Cr elements present in the coating are more likely to form a dense passivation film,which improved the corrosion resistance of the coating.

文摘21-4N(5Cr21Mn9Ni4N)is extensively employed in the production of engine valves,operating under severe conditions.Apart from withstanding high-temperature gas corrosion,it must also endure the impact of cylinder explosion pressure.The predominant failure mode of 21-4N valves is abrasive wear.Surface coatings serve as an effective approach to prevent such failures.In this investigation,Laser cladding technology was utilized to fabricate AlCoCrFeNiTi high entropy alloy coatings onto the surfaces of 21-4N valves.According to the findings,the cladding zone has a normal dendritic microstructure,a good substrate-to-cladding layer interaction,and no obvious flaws.In terms of hardness,the cladding demonstrates an average hardness of 620 HV.The hardness has increased by 140%compared to the substrate.The average hardness of the cladding remains at approximately 520 HV even at elevated temperatures.Regarding frictional wear performance,between 400℃and 800℃,the cladding layer exhibits an average friction coefficient of 0.4,with the primary wear mechanisms being abrasive wear,adhesive wear,and a minor degree of plastic deformation.

文摘The key components of engineering machinery frequently failed due to working in the high load and high wear operating envir-onment.And the performance of the Fe-based alloy coatings typically employed need to be improved for fulfilling the service requirements.Herein,a TiC strengthened Fe-based alloy cladding layer,named TiC-Fe coating,was designed and prepared by plasma cladding technology.The frictional wear performance of coating under various loads was tested.The wear morphology of the coating was observed,and its wear mechanism was examined.The results indicated that the TiC-Fe coating was well formed and metallurgically bonded to the Q345C substrate.Its microstructure mainly consisted of Fe-Cr solid solution,α-Fe phase,(Fe,Cr)_(7)C_(3) phase and TiC phase.The coating exhibited an average microhardness of 980 HV0.2,which was about 5.4 times that of the Q345C substrate.The wear mass loss of the TiC-Fe coatings was much smaller than that of the Q345C substrate,which indicated that the wear resistance of the Q345C coating was superior to the substrate,and the wear mechanism of the coating was mainly attributed to the abrasive wear.

文摘This study utilizes Direct FE^(2) multiscale simulation techniques to propose an innovative approach for analyzing hydrogen diffusion in Zircaloy cladding.This method combines finite element simulations at two scales into a monolithic framework by utilizing downscaling rules and scaling factors.Through the investigation,it was found that voids induce non-uniform diffusion of lattice hydrogen,demonstrating a strong correlation between trapped concentration and microstructure.Additionally,the accumulation of trapped hydrogen leads to localized plastic deformation and a reduction in effective diffusivity.Furthermore,two representative volume elements were established to depict the void distribution at various stages of its evolution.It is evident that in the initial phases of void evolution,the hydrogen-induced softening effect facilitates crack propagation deep within the zirconium alloy cladding.Moreover,as void evolution progresses into the second stage,this effect intensifies the incidence of localized damage at the narrow inter-void ligaments.

文摘In order to investigate the process of laser cladding(LC)Inconel 625 alloy powder on Q235 steel plate,this paper focuses on analyzing the effects of different process parameters on the temperature field,stress field and flow behavior of the molten pool through a combination of finite element simulation and experiment.The simulation part established a geometric model,applied the Goldak double el-lipsoid heat source model,and simulated the LC process by varying the laser power and scanning speed.For the experimental part,LC equipment was used,parameters such as laser power and scanning speed were adjusted,and the molten pool dynamics were observed by in-frared temperature measurement and high-speed photography.The results show that the laser power and scanning speed are the key factors affecting the quality of cladding,and the experimental observation coincides with the simulation results,which verifies the validity of the simulation method and provides theoretical basis and experimental support for the optimization of the LC process.

文摘To improve the wear performance of CoCrAlYTa coating,part of the carbon nanotubes(CNTs)chemically reacted with Ta to form reinforcement phase(TaC),while the other CNTs were retained as lubrication phase.Subsequently,the CoCrAlYTa-xCNTs(x=0,1,2,and 4;wt%)composite coatings were prepared by laserinduction hybrid cladding(LIHC),and the microstructure and wear resistance of coatings were systematically analyzed.Results show that the coatings are mainly composed of TaC,y-(Co,Cr)andβ-(Co,Cr)Al.As the CNTs content increases from 0 wt%to 4 wt%,the volume fraction of TaC increases from 13.11 vol%to 16.12 vol%.Meanwhile,the nano-hardness ofγ-(Co,Cr)andβ-(Co,Cr)Al are improved from 7.49 and 9.72 to 9.36 and 11.19 GPa,respectively.As a result,the microhardness of coating increases from HV536.25 to HV 738.16,the wear rate decreases from32.4×10^(-3)to 6.1×10^(-3)mg·m^(-1),and the average friction coefficient decreases from 0.55 to 0.44.The good wear performance of the coating is attributed to the formation of TaC and the existence of remained CNTs lubricant film.

文摘In order to improve the sealing surface performance of gray cast iron gas gate valves and achieve precise molding control of the cladding layer,as well as to reveal the influence of laser cladding process parameters on the morphology and structure of the cladding layer,we prepared the 316L coating on HT 200 by using Design-Expert software central composite design(CCD)based on response surface analysis.We built a regression prediction model and analyzed the ANOVA with the inspection results.With a target cladding layer width of 3.5 mm and height of 1.3 mm,the process parameters were optimized to obtain the best combination of process parameters.The microstructure,phases,and hardness variations of the cladding layer from experiments with optimal parameters were analyzed by the metallographic microscope,confocal microscope,and microhardness instrument.The experimental results indicate that laser power has a significant impact on the cladding layer width,followed by powder feed rate;scan speed has a significant impact on the cladding layer height,followed by powder feed rate.The HT200 substrate and 316L can metallurgically bond well,and the cladding layer structure consists of dendritic crystals,columnar crystals,and equiaxed crystals in sequence.The optimal process parameter combination satisfying the morphology requirements is laser power(A)of 1993 W,scan speed(B)of 8.949 mm/s,powder feed rate(C)of 1.408 r/min,with a maximum hardness of 1564.3 HV0.5,significantly higher than the hardness of the HT200 substrate.

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A low rare-earth containing ZEK100-O magnesium alloy was welded to AA1230-clad high-strength AA2024-T3 aluminum alloy via solidstate ultrasonic spot welding(USW)to evaluate the microstructure,tensile lap shear strength,and fatigue properties.The tensile strength increased with increasing welding energy,peaked at a welding energy of 1000 J,and then decreased due to the formation of an increasingly thick diffusion layer mainly containing Al12Mg17intermetallic compound at higher energy levels.The peak tensile lap shear strength attained at 1000 J was attributed to the optimal inter-diffusion between the magnesium alloy and softer AA1230-clad Al layer along with the presence of‘fishhook'-like mechanical interlocks at the weld interface and the formation of an indistinguishable intermetallic layer.The dissimilar joints welded at 1000 J also exhibited a longer fatigue life than other Mg-Al dissimilar joints,suggesting the beneficial role of the softer clad layer with a better intermingling capacity during USW.While the transverse-through-thickness(TTT)failure mode prevailed at lower cyclic loading levels,interfacial failure was the predominant mode of fatigue failure at higher cyclic loads,where distinctive fatigue striations were also observed on the fracture surface of the softer clad Al layer.This was associated with the presence of opening stress and bending moment near the nugget edge despite the tension-tension lap shear cyclic loading applied.

文摘With the urgently increasing demand for high-speed and large-capacity communication trans-mission,there remains a critical need for tunable terahertz(THz)devices with multi-channel in 5G/6G communication systems.A magnetic phase-coding meta-atom(MPM)is formed by the heterogeneous integration of La:YIG magneto-optical(MO)materials and Si microstructures.The MPM couples the magnetic induction phase of spin states with the propagation phase and can simultaneously satisfy the required output phase for dual frequencies under various external magnetic fields to realize the dynamic beam steering among multiple channels at 0.25 and 0.5 THz.The energy ratio of the target direction can reach 96.5%,and the nonreciprocal one-way transmission with a max isolation of 29.8 dB is realized due to the nonreciprocal phase shift of the MO layer.This nonreciprocal mechanism of magnetic induction reshaping of wavefront significantly holds promise for advancing integrated multi-functional THz devices with the characteristics of low-crosstalk,multi-channel,and multi-frequency,and has great potential to promote the development of THz large-capacity and high-speed communication.
