The as-deposited coatings were then post-treated using two different methods, viz., ultrasonic vibration-aided vacuum oil impregnation(UVOI) and oil impregnation under ambient pressure(OIAP). After posttreatment, an oil-containing, self-lubricating top layer was formed on the coatings. The effects of the coatings' surface morphologies and structures on their oil-holding capabilities were discussed. The results revealed that coatings prepared with higher frequency had a greater oil-holding capacity using OIAP post-treatment, while those prepared with lower frequency had a greater oil-containing capability using UVOI post-treatment. These phenomena are related to the morphologies of the coatings produced with various current modes. The tribological properties of the coatings before and after post-treatments were investigated by pin-on-disc sliding wear tests. Due to the formation of a lubricant-containing top layer, the post-treatment coatings had a lower friction coefficient and improved wear resistance compared with the asdeposited coatings. In addition, the coatings after UVOI treatment had better wear performance than those post-treated using the OIAP process. Among all coatings, the coating produced with a 50-Hz pulsed current followed by UVOI posttreatment achieved the lowest friction coefficient(0.03) and best wear resistance when sliding against a Si3N4 ceramic counterface. This study indicates that a novel self-lubricating coating can be prepared by a PEO process combined with vacuum oil impregnation post-treatment.展开更多

The microstructure and composition of the duplex coatings were analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Tribological behaviors of the coatings were studied by ball-on-disk friction test. It was found that the ID/IG ratio of the (Si:N)-DLC (diamond-like carbon) top films increases with decreasing C2H2/N2 ratio. The (Si:N)-DLC top film with SigN4 was formed on the MAO coated sample as the C2H2/N2 ratio was 10sccm:5sccm, which showed an increasing critical load compared with the pure DLC directly deposited on the Mg alloy substrate. As a result, the (Si:N)-DLC/MAO coating exhibited an advanced wear protection for the substrate.展开更多

Non-uniform microstructure characterized by some pores and microcracks is observed in the produced composite coatings, which leads to low microhardness value, low adhesive strength and low frictional coefficient.

The friction coefficients of two kinds of coatings increase to 0.4-0.63 and 0.35-0.46, respectively, at the test speed of 1 m/s. And the Ni45-10%CaF2-5%WS2 coating presents the minimum friction coefficient of 0.32-0.38 and good anti-wear properties at 400 ℃.展开更多

文摘To mitigate the impact of interdiffusion reactions between the silicide slurry and Ta12W alloy substrate during vacuum sintering process on the oxidation resistance of the silicide coating,a micro-arc oxidation pretreatment was employed to construct a Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer on the Ta12W alloy surface.Subsequently,a slurry spraying-vacuum sintering method was used to prepare a Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on the pretreated substrate.Comparative studies were conducted on the microstructure,phase composition,and isothermal oxidation resistance(at 1600℃)of the as-prepared coatings with and without the micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer.The results show that the Ta_(2)O_(5)layer prepared at 400 V is more continuous and has smaller pores than that prepared at 350 V.After microarc oxidation pretreatment,the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on Ta12W alloy consists of three distinct layers:an upper layer dominated by Ti_(5)Si_(3),Ta_(5)Si_(3),and ZrSi;a middle layer dominated by TaSi_(2);a coating/substrate interfacial reaction layer dominated by Ta_(5)Si_(3).Both the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coatings with and without the Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer do not fail after isothermal oxidation at 1600℃for 5 h.Notably,the addition of the Ta2O5 ceramic layer reduces the high-temperature oxidation rate of the coating.

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The Sn−2Al filler metal was utilized to bond W90 tungsten heavy alloys by the ultrasonic-assisted coating technology in atmospheric environment at 250℃.The effects of ultrasonic power and ultrasonic time on microstructure and interfacial strength of Sn−2Al/W90 interface were investigated.The ultrasound improved the wettability of Sn−2Al filler metal on W90 surface.As the ultrasonic power increased and ultrasonic time increased,the size of Al phase in seam decreased.The maximum value of Sn−2Al/W90 interfacial strength reached 30.1 MPa.Based on the acoustic pressure simulation and bubble dynamics,the intensity of cavitation effect was proportional to ultrasonic power.The generated high temperature and high pressure by cavitation effect reached 83799.6 K and 1.26×10^(14) Pa,respectively.
文摘Polymer nanocomposite coatings(PNCCs)are unprecedented generation of coatings engineered for displaying inexpensive and brilliant functional surface coatings with eminent corrosion guard,mechanical resistance,antimicrobial,chemical durability,electrical insulation,and UV aging features.Due to their widely anticipation in petroleum,applications in building,conveyance,aerospace,electronics,automobiles and energy,these multi-functional coatings have a tremendous leverage in human life,all technological and scientific subjects.Numerous applications have been made for multilateral polymers like polyurethane(PU),epoxy(EP),polyaniline(PANI)conductive polymer,polypyrrole(PPy),and etc,on various metallic surfaces especially,carbon steel substrate owing to their excellent resistance properties.Practically,nanomaterials can possess potential in the all-interdisciplinary domains of materials science and engineering,chemical and physical sciences,biological and health sciences.As known,the designed polymer nanocomposite coating paradigm is fundamentally constituted from polymer or resin as a vehicle and inorganic nanofillers(nanoparticles and nanocomposites).Some commercialized and excessively employed nanocontainers in polymer nanocomposite coating formulations,like ZnO,TiO_(2),carbon nanotubes(CNTs),clay,SiO_(2),Al_(2)O_(3),graphene,GO,CeO_(2),ZrO_(2),FeTiO_(3),etc were discussed.The current review covered the chemistry and potential applications of the largest utilized multifunctional polymer nanocomposite coatings such as EP,PU and other considerable PNCCs.Lately,a titanic attention was made for epoxy nanocomposites because of their distinct physicochemical characteristics,which result from the combined qualities of the nanoparticles and polymer material unity.In addition,the author incorporated some of his scientific contributions in this area represented in construction of innovative functional polymer nanocomposites for a variety of uses with high economic,industrial impacts and future orientation.Furthermore,some newly published applications of polymer nanocomposite coatings were incorporated and discussed.

文摘Aluminum-based composite abradable seal coatings are pivotal to improving the efficiency of aero engines or gas turbines.However,the adhesive transfer frequently occurs between metallic blade tips and aluminum-based composite coatings,resulting in engine vibration and even jam.Many past studies had tried to solve this problem by reducing coating hardness,improving lubrication,or strengthening blade tips,but all had failed.In this paper,we proposed a novel epoxy-based composite abradable seal coating,eliminating adhesive transfer by changing metal-to-metal scraping pair to metal-to-polymer scraping pair.The coating was developed via a hierarchical structure design.Large spherical pores were uniformly distributed in the continuous epoxy matrix with fine graphite dispersion.By adding 20 vol.%graphite and 50 vol.%hollow microspheres,a self-lubricating epoxy-based coating of 0.26 friction coefficient with thermal conductivity of 0.28 W/(m·K),coating HR15 Y hardness at 54.8,and bonding strength at 18.7 MPa can be reached.When the metallic blades scrape the epoxy-based composite coating,no adhesive transfer occurs.Besides,a smooth scraped surface is formed by pseudoplastic deformation.This epoxy-based composite abradable seal coating opens a new way to improve the efficiency and reliable operations of air engine compressors.

文摘The combined micro arc oxidation (MAO) and a hybrid beam deposition process was used to deposit duplex (Si:N)-DLC/MAO coatings on AZ80 magnesium alloy. The microstructure and composition of the duplex coatings were analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Tribological behaviors of the coatings were studied by ball-on-disk friction test. It was found that the ID/IG ratio of the (Si:N)-DLC (diamond-like carbon) top films increases with decreasing C2H2/N2 ratio. The (Si:N)-DLC top film with SigN4 was formed on the MAO coated sample as the C2H2/N2 ratio was 10sccm:5sccm, which showed an increasing critical load compared with the pure DLC directly deposited on the Mg alloy substrate. As a result, the (Si:N)-DLC/MAO coating exhibited an advanced wear protection for the substrate.

文摘To improve the mechanical properties of self-lubricating chromium vanadium nitride (CrVN) coatings, va- nadium nitride (VN) is combined with CrVN to form multilayered CrVN/VN coatings through an in-line magnetron sputtering system. The strengthening effect of the period thickness on the mechanical and tribological properties is studied. X-ray diffractometer, low-angle X-ray reflectivity, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, electron probe micro-analyzer and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy are employed to characterize the microstructures and chemical composition. Nanoindentation and ball-on-disc tribo-tester are used in characterization of the mechanical and tribological properties. The CrVN/VN multilayer coatings demonstrate good lubrication property with coefficient of friction down to 0.23. Multilayering with VN, the hardness of CrVN jumps to 27.6 GPa with period thickness of 6 nm, which has an improvement of 5.1 GPa compared with that of 22.5 GPa from rule-of-mixture.

文摘Ni-based submicron WS2/CaF2 self-lubricating composite coatings were produced on carbon steel substrate by high velocity oxygen fuel(HVOF) spray processing, and the microstructure and mechanical properties of the coatings were investigated. Non-uniform microstructure characterized by some pores and microcracks is observed in the produced composite coatings, which leads to low microhardness value, low adhesive strength and low frictional coefficient. For Ni45-5%CaF2-10%WS2 (mass fraction) and Ni45-10%CaF2-5%WS2 (mass fraction) coatings, under the test condition of load 40 N and speed 2 m/s, the friction coefficients obtained at room temperature are in the range of 0.35-0.48 and 0.31-0.41, respectively. The friction coefficients of two kinds of coatings increase to 0.4-0.63 and 0.35-0.46, respectively, at the test speed of 1 m/s. And the Ni45-10%CaF2-5%WS2 coating presents the minimum friction coefficient of 0.32-0.38 and good anti-wear properties at 400 ℃.
