Hot corrosion properties of composite coatings in the presence of NaCl at 700 and 900 °C

Cyclic hot corrosion tests have been carried out on three coatings (one NiCoCrAlY and two composite coatings) at 700 and 900 °C. The kinetic curves and evolution of microstructure show that the composite coating with a Cr-base interlayer performs best. The Cr₂O₃ scale is more effective to protect the coating at 700 °C than that at 900 °C. The corrosion process is accelerated by NaCl via forming volatile MCl_x and inducing the formation of molten voids in the coating or extra oxidation at the interface of fusant/oxide scale, determined by the temperature and the compositions of the coating.     

TC17钛合金激光冲击强化实验研究

目的探索更为高效的激光冲击强化方式,提高TC17钛合金板片的疲劳寿命。方法先采用设备4个光路对TC17钛合金板片进行强化,强化试验结束后,应用LXRD-X射线应力分析仪测定其表面残余应力,再对板片进行表面粗糙度测试。选取新的板片进行应力分布测试,确定TC17钛合金板片在一阶弯曲振型下的应力水平,然后在该应力水平下对经冲击强化和未经冲击强化的板片进行疲劳对比试验。结果板片表面产生了残余压应力层,在相同激光能量下,椭圆形光斑强化区域的残余应力大约是方形光斑强化区域的1.33倍,且椭圆形区域各点残余应力数值相差更小。强化区域的表面粗糙度为0.25~0.34 mm,未强化区域的表面粗糙度为0.13~0.16 mm。疲劳试验时,未经激光冲击强化的板片均在6~11 min内发生断裂,而经激光强化后的4块板片中,1块未断裂,另外3块分别在59、381、709 min断裂。结论激光冲击强化对材料性能起到了强化作用,且椭圆形光斑的强化优于方形光斑。强化后,板片的表面粗糙度增加了1倍,疲劳寿命提高了52倍。
