The phase composition and microstructure of the Mo-Si-C-N coating were characterized by X-ray diffractometry, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy.

The diffraction characteristics of the IVIMDG are analysed by using the rigorous coupled-wave method. The multi-layer dielectric used as the reflective mirror is made up of non- quarter-wave coatings.

The optimized MMDG shows an ultra-broadband working spectrum with the average efficiency exceeding 97% over 160 nm wavelength centred at 1053 nm and TE polarization. The optimized MMDG should be useful for chirped pulse amplification.展开更多

文摘Nanoporous polymers are extensively coated on various substrates to deliver optical,permselective,or other functions.However,it remains desired to fast produce uniform nanoporous polymer coatings on substrates with complex surfaces.Herein,by manipulating the interactions between block copolymers and selective solvents,we prepare repairable nanoporous polymers on arbitrary substrates.This is realized by an extremely simple sequential coating process:sequential coating of block copolymers and their swelling agents on substrate surfaces.The swelling agents are comprised of two solvents that swell the constituent blocks of the copolymers to different degrees,rapidly producing polymer coatings with uniform,interconnected,sub-50 nm pores.This sequential coating process is able to conformally build nanoporous polymers on nonplanar substrates with large lateral sizes and complex surface features,and also to in situ repair defects arising during usages.We further demonstrate that the nanoporous coatings show excellent antireflective and membrane separation performances.This sequential coating process is dictated by polymer–solvent interactions,and is expected to find applications in diverse fields for its simplicity,adaptability,and the capability to produce well-defined nanoporosities.

文摘An advanced AlCrSiN/AlCrN/CrN/Cr multilayer coating was developed via hybrid multiarc ion plating and high-power impulse magnetron sputtering.The multilayer design enhanced the substrate-coating compatibility,achieving a critical load of 87.8 N.Silicon doping induced nanocrystallization and amorphization,increasing the hardness to 26 GPa.At high temperatures,a nanoscale Cr-rich(Cr,Al)_(2)O_(3) layer was formed,effectively inhibiting oxygen diffusion.The coating underwent unique phase transformations,during which Cr_(2)N and amorphous Si3N4 were converted into dispersed SiCr_(3) nanoparticles,which stabilized Cr atoms and suppressed their outward diffusion.Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations revealed that Cr atoms exhibited higher chemical activity and oxygen-capture capability than Al atoms and Si atoms served as diffusion barriers by pinning onto the oxidized surface,considerably improving the oxidation resistance of the coating.

文摘The high-temperature interaction of nanostructured Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) environmental barrier coatings(EBCs)with calcium-magnesium-aluminosilicate(CMAS)was investigated at 1400℃ for 1,10,25,and 50 h to evaluate the coating’s resistance to CMAS corrosion.The results indicate a phase transformation over time,transitioning from Ca_(2)Lu_(8)(SiO_(4))6O_(2) apatite and Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) to solely Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7).The interaction of the Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) coating with the CMAS melts was divided into three stages based on the corrosion reaction behavior.The delamination cracks were distributed throughout the interface between the Si bond layer and Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) layer after corroded at 1400℃ for 50 h,signifying coating failure.In addition,the influence of monosilicates,disilicates,and corrosion duration on the recession layer thickness was analyzed by comparing previous reports on RE_(2)SiO_(5)/RE_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) coatings(RE=Gd,Yb,Lu,Er).Furthermore,the variation in the thermally grown oxide layer thickness in CMAS-corroded Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) coatings was systematically investigated.

文摘Dual-layer thermal barrier coatings(TBCs)with ultrahigh temperature resistance were prepared on the surface of molybdenum-rhenium alloy hot-end components.The preparation of the MoSi_(2)-Gd_(2)Zr_(2)O_(7)dual-layer TBCs was designed based on the coefficient of thermal expansion and the coating functionality,and it was completed using atmospheric plasma spraying technique.The microstructure,mechanical properties,and thermal properties were analyzed.Results indicate that the adhesion of the prepared dual-layer composite TBCs is excellent,and no noticeable cracks appear at the interface.Compared with the MoSi_(2)coating with a low fracture toughness(0.88 MPa·m^(1/2)),the Gd_(2)Zr_(2)O_(7)coating exhibits higher fracture toughness(1.74 MPa·m^(1/2))and stronger resistance to crack propagation.The prepared MoSi_(2)-Gd_(2)Zr_(2)O_(7)composite coatings have a high porosity(39%),low thermal conductivity(1.020 W·(m·K)^(−1),1200℃),and low thermal diffusivity(0.249 mm^(2)/s,1200℃).Additionally,they possess a high oxygen-vacancy concentration,which ensures excellent insulation performance.

文摘TiB_(2)coatings can significantly enhance the high-temperature oxidation resistance of molybdenum,which would broaden the application range of molybdenum and alloys thereof.However,traditional methods for preparing TiB_(2)coatings have disadvantages such as high equipment costs,complicated processes,and highly toxic gas emissions.This paper proposes an environmentally friendly method,which requires inexpensive equipment and simple processing,for preparing TiB_(2)coating on molybdenum via electrophoretic deposition within Na3AlF6-based molten salts.The produced TiB_(2)layer had an approximate thickness of 60μm and exhibited high density,outstanding hardness(38.2 GPa)and robust adhesion strength(51 N).Additionally,high-temperature oxidation experiments revealed that,at900℃,the TiB_(2)coating provided effective protection to the molybdenum substrate against oxidation for 3 h.This result indicates that the TiB_(2)coating prepared on molybdenum using molten salt electrophoretic deposition possesses good high-temperature oxidation resistance.

文摘When micro/nano-scale gradient coatings are subject to large thermal gradients or high heat fluxes,the spatial size effect cannot be ignored.It is important to understand how the size effect influences the thermal fracture behavior of functionally graded coating/substrate structures.This study aims at analyzing the transient thermal fracture behavior of collinear interface cracks in functionally graded coating/substrate structures based on the nonlocal dual-phase-lag heat conduction model.By means of integral transform techniques,the mixed boundary problem is transformed into a set of singular integral equations,which are solved by the Chebyshev polynomials.The effects of the nonlocal parameter,coating thickness,crack spacing,and non-homogeneous parameters on the temperature and stress intensity factors(SIFs)are examined.The numerical results show that these parameters play an essential role in controlling the thermal fracture behavior of the structures,especially at micro/nano-scales.

文摘Waterborne acrylic coatings are widely utilized due to their cost-effectiveness,high transparency,strong resistance to weather and chemicals,impressive mechanical properties,and excellent adhesion to various substrates.In these coatings,a reactive emulsifier containing phosphate groups can be integrated into the molecular chain during polymerization,which enhances the coating's compactness and corrosion resistance.This work focuses on the synthesis of styrene-butyl acrylate(St-BA)latex and methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate(MMA-BA)latex using the reactive phosphate emulsifier ANPEO_(10)-P_(1) through seed emulsion polymerization,achieving a conversion rate of approximately 99%and a solid content close to 50%.The resulting coatings from St-BA and MMA-BA latexes demonstrated long-term corrosion protection for carbon steel and aluminum alloy due to in-situ phosphatization,effectively preventing flash rust.Notably,the MMA-BA coating exhibited remarkable durability,enduring immersion for up to 1224 h(51 d)on Q 235 carbon steel before reaching the failure threshold(|Z|0.01 Hz£106Ω·cm^(2))on Q 235 carbon steel.On 5052 aluminum alloy,the St-BA coating maintained|Z|0.01 Hz>10^(8)Ω·cm^(2) for 480 h(20 d).Furthermore,the corrosion resistance of St-BA and MMA BA coatings on Q 235 steel sheet and 5052 aluminum alloy surpassed that of commercially available MMA-BA and St BA coatings after immersion in a 3.5 wt%NaCl aqueous solution.This work also delves into the anticorrosion mechanism of MMA-BA and St-BA coatings.

文摘In order to improve the oxidation resistance of carbon/carbon （C/C） composites,a SiC/C-AlPO4 multi-layer coating was fabricated on the C/C composites by a simple and low-cost method.The internal SiC bonding layer was prepared by a two-step pack cementation process and the external C-AlPO4 coating was deposited by hydrothermal electrophoretic deposition process.Phase compositions and microstructures of the as-prepared multi-layer coating were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）,scaning electron microspocy （SEM） and energy dispersive spectrometer （EDS）.Anti-oxidation properties,oxidation behavior and the failure behavior of the coated composites were investigated.The results indicate that the multi-layer coating exhibits obviously two-layer structure.The inner layer is composed of β-SiC,α-SiC phase with a scale of silicon phase.The outer layer is composed of cristobalite aluminum phosphate （C-AlPO4） crystallites.The SEM observation shows the good bonding between the inner and outer layers.The multi-layer coating displays an excellent oxidation resistance in air in the temperature range from 1573 to 1773 K,and the corresponding oxidation activation energy of the coated C/C composites is calculated to be 117.2 kJ/mol.The oxidation process is predominantly controlled by the diffusion of O2 through the C-AlPO 4 coating.The failure of the multi-layer coating results from the generation of the microholes that may be left by the escape of the oxidation gases.

文摘A Mo-Si-C-N multi-layered anti-oxidation coating was in-situ fabricated by introducing nitrogen atmosphere during the fused sintering of Mo-Si slurry pre-layer on carbon/carbon composites. The phase composition and microstructure of the Mo-Si-C-N coating were characterized by X-ray diffractometry, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The Mo-Si-C-N coating exhibited a three-layered structure. Besides the MoSi2/Si main-layer and the SiC bonding-layer, a surface layer of about 10 μm in thickness was synthesized on the coating surface. The surface layer mainly consisted of SiC nanowires and contained some Si3N4 and Si phases. SiC nanowires of 10 to 200 nm in diameter presented a terrace and distortion structure. Transmission electron microscopy indicated that the SiC nanowires grew along the preferred 〈111〉 direction. During oxidation test, SiC nanowires transmuted into SiO2 glass, which can play an important role in improving the oxidation resistance of C/C composites.

文摘This article deals with designing a broadband and high efficiency metal multi-layer dielectric grating （MMDG） used to compress and stretch an ultrashort laser pulse. The diffraction characteristics of the IVIMDG are analysed by using the rigorous coupled-wave method. The multi-layer dielectric used as the reflective mirror is made up of non- quarter-wave coatings. Taking the diffraction efficiency of the -1 order as the value of merit function, the parameters such as groove depth, residual thickness, duty cycle, and reflective mirror are optimized to obtain broadband and high diffraction efficiency. The optimized MMDG shows an ultra-broadband working spectrum with the average efficiency exceeding 97% over 160 nm wavelength centred at 1053 nm and TE polarization. The optimized MMDG should be useful for chirped pulse amplification.
