Tribological properties of nanostructured n -Al2O3/Ni coatings deposited by plasma spraying

Nanostructured n-Al₂O₃/Ni feedstock for thermal spraying was manufactured by the method of chemical wrapping and spray drying. The nanostructured coating was sprayed with this feedstock. Tribological properties of the coatings and steel 45# were tested. Within the testing range, the friction coefficient of coatings against GCr15 steel decreased and the mass loss of coatings increased at first then decreased with the increase of load. Under each load, the coatings’ fraction coefficients and wear losses were lower lower than that of steel 45#. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometer analysis show that adhesion is the dominating wear mechanism, and fatigue exists at the same time. Material transferred from counter-part to the coating is the main factor which influences the coatings’ friction coefficient and wear losses.

β-Si3N4 powders prepared by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) with additions of Y2O3 and Al2O3 were sintered by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The densification, microstructure, and mechanical properties of Si3N4 ceramics prepared using this method were compared with those obtained by hot pressing process. Well densified Si3N4 ceramics with finer and homogeneous microstructure and better mechanical properties were obtained in the case of the SPS technique at 200℃ lower than that of hot pressing. The microhardness is 15.72 GPa, the bending strength is 716.46 MPa, and the fracture toughness is 7.03 MPa.m1/2.     

等离子喷涂参数对镍基合金涂层组织及冲蚀磨损性能的影响

采用SEM、XRD、LSCM和冲蚀磨损试验机研究了等离子喷涂参数(氢气流量HFR、喷涂电流I)对Ni60涂层组织与冲蚀磨损性能的影响。结果表明,Ni60涂层主要由γ-Ni、Ni3B、Cr2B、CrB、M7C3、M23C6相构成;增加HFR、I有利于减小涂层中层片厚度,增加涂层结晶度、平均晶粒尺寸、微观应变量及残余应力,提高涂层显微硬度及抗冲蚀磨损性能。但过大的HFR、I(15ft3/h、600A)导致涂层孔隙率增加,显微硬度及抗冲蚀磨损性能降低。等离子喷涂参数HFR=12.5ft3/h、I=500A时,在小角度冲蚀条件下,Ni60涂层具有更高的抗冲蚀磨损性能。

Effects of C,N-codoped on the corrosion resistance of TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> films prepared by plasma surface alloying and thermal oxidation duplex process

C,N-codoped TiO 2 films have been deposited onto stainless steel substrates using plasma surface alloying and thermal oxidation duplex process.Composition analysis shows that the films shield the substrates entirely.The TiO 2 films are anatase in structure as characterized by X-ray diffraction.The electrochemical measurements show that the equilibrium corrosion potential positively shifts from-0.275 eV for bare stainless steel to-0.267 eV for C,N-codoped TiO 2 coated stainless steel,and the corrosion current density decreases from 1.3×10-5 A/cm2 to 4.1×10-6 A/cm2.The corrosion resistance obtained by electrochemistry noise also reveals that the C,N-codoped TiO 2 films provide good protection for stainless steel against corrosion in stimulated body fluid.The above results indicate that C,N-codoped TiO 2 films deposited by plasma surface alloying and thermal oxidation duplex process are effective in protecting stainless steel from corrosion.
