摘要
A columnar Al film was firstly deposited on the top of 7%Y2O3?stabilized zirconia (7YSZ) ceramic coating in thermal barrier coating (TBC) system by magnetron sputtering. A vacuum treatment was then carried out at 700 °C for 1 h and 900 °C for 5 h to improve the erosion resistance of Al-deposited TBC. Aα-Al2O3 layer was in situ synthesized on the top of 7YSZ coating via vacuum heat treatment. The microstructure evolution of Al-deposited TBC illustrated that a loose surface-layer and a dense sub-layer formed on the top of 7YSZ coating after vacuum treatment. The phase structures of the as-sprayed TBC and the Al-deposited TBC after vacuum heat treatment were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) assisted with focused ion beam (FIB). Particulate erosion resistances of the as-sprayed TBC and treated TBC were compared at room temperature. In addition, erosion mechanism and schematic diagram were proposed. The results show that the Al-deposited TBC after vacuum heat treatment has better particulate erosion resistance than the as-sprayed one.
采用磁控溅射在大气等离子喷涂的ZrO_2-7%Y_2O_3(7YSZ)热障涂层表面制备一层厚度约15μm铝膜,对镀有铝膜的热障涂层样品在700、900℃分别保温1h和5h进行真空热处理。采用场发射扫描电子显微镜对经真空热处理前后镀铝热障涂层的微观结构进行表征。采用X射线衍射和透射电子显微镜对经真空热处理前后镀铝热障涂层的物相变化进行分析。对等离子喷涂的7YSZ原始热障涂层和镀铝真空热处理后的热障涂层进行室温粒子冲刷性能对比。结果表明:镀铝热障涂层经真空热处理后在涂层表面出现疏松表层和致密底层,其成分主要为α-Al_2O_3,其中致密底层来源于Al膜与ZrO_2的高温原位反应且该层有较高的显微硬度。此外,冲刷实验后发现镀铝真空热处理后热障涂层的冲刷性能比无镀铝热障涂层有较大的提高。
