大气等离子喷涂制备莫来石涂层的性能

采用大气等离子喷涂制备莫来石涂层,对涂层进行了热震试验。以OLYCIA m3图像分析软件测定涂层孔隙率,以MH-5-VM型显微硬度仪测定涂层硬度,依照ASTMC633-79标准测定涂层结合强度,以X射线衍射(XRD)和扫描电镜(SEM)表征涂层的相组成和微观形貌。结果表明,莫来石涂层主要由变形颗粒、未熔融粉末及少量孔隙组成,涂层中没有微观裂纹;涂层中含有莫来石晶体和部分非晶态玻璃相;热震过程中,涂层中的非晶转变为晶态莫来石,同时伴随应力释放,导致涂层出现微观裂纹。     

等离子喷涂铈酸镧热障涂层

采用等离子喷涂铈酸镧（La₂Ce₂O₇, LC）粉末制备了铈酸镧热障涂层（TBCs）.由于等离子喷涂过程中CeO₂的挥发量较多,造成涂层的实际成分为La₂Ce_1.66O_4.32,与原始粉末成分相比有所偏离.在1400℃下经240h热处理后LC涂层发生轻微的分解.在1000℃下LC块材的热导率约为0.51W/(m·K),比传统的氧化钇部分稳定的氧化锆（YSZ）块材的热导率降低了约75%.LC涂层的热膨胀系数（CTE）在450～1100℃范围内介于10×10^-6～13×10^-6K^-1,与相应温度范围内的YSZ相比较高.热膨胀性能测量表明,LC涂层从室温升到1250℃时发生轻微的烧结,在1250℃保温过程发生明显的烧结现象.LC热障涂层在1100℃条件下经60次热循环后从陶瓷层内部发生剥落.

轴向送粉等离子喷涂Ni/Al2O3涂层的力学及微波介电性能

以轴向送粉等离子喷涂法制备了Ni/Al2O3陶瓷涂层,分析了Ni含量变化对涂层材料的显微结构、力学性能及微波介电性能的影响.结果表明,随着Ni含量增加,涂层中Ni粒子的分布逐渐由孤立向部分桥连方式转变;陶瓷涂层的相对密度、抗弯强度呈下降趋势,这主要是由于在陶瓷涂层中Ni与Al2O3不润湿,Ni与Al2O3热膨胀系数不匹配从而形成空隙引起的.涂层断裂韧性随Ni含量的增加而升高,则是由于材料中Ni粒子发生了延展变形和引起裂纹转向.复介电常数性能测试结果表明,在8.2～12.4GHz微波频率范围内,陶瓷涂层复介电常数的实部值随Ni粒子含量的增加先逐渐上升后逐渐下降,复介电常数的虚部上升.这与Ni粒子形成的桥连结构有关.     

Ultrasonic Plasma Spray--A New Plasma Spray Process

The method of arc- ultrasonic is introduced into plasma spray process. The process of spray ZrO2-NiCoCr AlY thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) using air plasma spray (APS) process is studied. A exciting source which can be adjusted from audio frequency to several hundred thousand Hertz is designed successfully. The ultrasonic exciting source is coupled with conventional DC spraying power supply. A few ultrasonic frequencies are selected in the testing. Several parts of the coatings with the coupling arc- ultrasonic are compared with the coatings without it. The results show: with 50 kHz and 80 kHz ultrasound, the coating qualities are improved, whereas 30 kHz has an opposite effect.     

Microstructure of Nanostructured WC-Co Coating Prepared by Thermal Spraying

Nanostructured WC-Co coatings were produced with Atmospheric Plasma Spraying (APS) and Low Pressure Plasma Spraying (LPPS). Microstructure characteristics and phase compositions of the coatings were studied by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) respectively. The microstructure compositions were analyzed with EDS. During APS deposition the existence of oxygen causes the decarburization of the coating, and the coating was composed of melted area and the WC/12Co powder. Besides WC phase, there was W2C phase. However in the coating deposited by LPPS the content of oxygen was so low that there were a limit degradation of the WC/12Co powder. The coatings were made up of compact block and loosen porosity area. There were large quantities of nanostructure WC grains and a small quantity of microstructure WC grains presented in the coating. Besides WC phase, a little W2C and WC1-x or Co6W6C phases occured. Consideration of the characteristics of the highly porous, spherical-shell morphology of nano-WC/12Co power, heterogeneous melting and localized superheating of the power were two main factors which caused the microstructure and phase composition of nano-WC-Co coatings.
