The influence of platinum on the maintenance of α-Al2O3 as a protective scale

The influence of externally located platinum on the isothermal stability of -Al₂O₃ scales formed at high temperatures has been examined. It has been observed that a nickel-base alloy forms an external scale of -Al₂O₃ during oxidation at 1200°C, but this scale breaks down isothermally, enabling a faster-growing Cr₂O₃-rich scale to develop. However, in the presence of platinum metal alongside the specimen in the furnace hot zone, the breakdown of the -Al₂O₃ scale is postponed for a substantial period of time. It appears that platinum, as the volatile species PtO₂, is incorporated into the growing -Al₂O₃ scale where it either influences the stress relief mechanism at temperature or reduces oxidation growth stress generation and thus significantly enhances the isothermal stability of the scale.     

Influence of Annealing on Photocatalytic Performance and Adhesion of Vacuum Cold-Sprayed Nanostructured TiO2 Coating

Composite powder was prepared using primary nanoTiO₂ powder and polyethylene glycol (PEG). The nanoTiO₂ coating was deposited through vacuum cold spray using both the composite powder and the primary nanopowder. The influence of annealing on the coating adhesion and photocatalytic activity was investigated. The coating adhesion was evaluated through erosion test by water jet. The photocatalytic performance of the coatings was evaluated through photodegradation of phenol in water. Results showed that annealing of the coating at a temperature from 450 to 500 °C yielded both higher activity and better adhesion. The adhesion of the coating deposited using the composite powder was better than that using the primary nanoTiO₂ powder. It was found that the TiO₂ coating, resulting from the composite powder, presented much higher activity than that deposited with the primary nanopowder. The better activity is attributed to the existence of large pores resulting from the stacking of composite powder, which benefits the reactants’ transportation through the porous coating.

Metallurgical characterization and determination of residual stresses of coatings formed by thermal spraying

This work presents an experimental determination of residual stresses in 35CrMo4 (Euronorm) low alloyed steel substrates with thermally sprayed coatings. Two different materials were separately deposited. The first one consisted of a blend of two superalloys: Cr-Ni steel and Cr-Mn steel, designated 55E and 65E, respectively. The second material was molybdenum. In a first part, basic characteristics of the deposited layers (metallographic analysis, hardness, and adhesion) are presented. In a second part, the determination of the residual stresses, in both substrate and thermal sprayed layers is performed using an extensometric method in combination with a simultaneous progressive electrolytic polishing. The influence of a nickel-aluminum (80:20%) bond-coat and/or a post-annealing at 850 °C in air for 1 h is studied.     

Electron‐beam deposition of MgO on plastic substrate and manufacturing flexible flat fluorescent lamp

Abstract— A flexible fluorescent lamp that utilizes the same plasma discharge mode as in PDPs has been manufactured. The structure of the flexible lamp is simple and easy to manufacture. All‐plastic materials including plastic substrates, barrier ribs (spacers), and sealants for low‐temperature manufacturing processing have been adopted except for the phosphor and MgO thin film. The MgO thin films were coated on the plastic substrates as a protection layer against the plasma discharge. The adhesion and biaxial texture of MgO thin film deposited on the plastic substrates, poly‐ethyle‐nenaphthalate (PEN) and polycarbonate (PC), at low temperature (100–180°C) has been characterized. The MgO film on PEN shows good adhesion under a repeated bending test. The manufactured flexible lamp consists of two plastic substrates of about 3 in. on the diagonal, barrier rib (spacer), and external ITO electrodes. The Ne‐Xe (5%) gas mixture at 100–200 Torr was used for the discharge gas. A maximum surface luminance of about 100 cd/m² was achieved for a 1 ‐kHz AC pulse.
