Thermal cycling performance of La_(2)Ce_(2)O_(7)/YSZ TBCs with Pt/Dy co-doped NiAl bond coat on single crystal superalloy

Thermal barrier coatings(TBCs) consisting ofLa_(2)Ce_(2)O_(7)(LCO) and Y_(2)O_(3)-stabilized-ZrO_(2)(YSZ) doubleceramic layer and Dy/Pt co-doped NiAl bond coat were produced by electron beam physical vapor deposition(EBPVD). Thermal cyclic performance of the TBCs was evaluated by flame shock testing at 1300 ℃. For comparison, the TBCs with a undoped NiAl bond coat were also studied. The microstructural evolution and failure mechanisms of the above TBCs during thermal cycling were investigated. Spallation failure of the TBCs with the undoped bond coat occurs after around 500 cycles by cracking at the interface between YSZ ceramic layer and thermally grown oxides(TGO) layer. The TBCs with Pt/Dy modified bond coat reveal improved interface bonding even after 1200 thermal cycles, whereas some delamination cracks are presented in the LCO layer. On the other hand,the Pt/Dy modified bond coat effectively suppresses the formation of the needle-like topologically closed packed phases(TCP) in the single crystal superalloy.

Cyclic Corrosion Behavior of Pt/Ru-Modified Bond Coatings Exposed to NaCl Plus Water Vapor at 1050℃

In the present investigation,Pt/Ru-modified bond coating consisted of 2 μm Pt＋2 μm Ru was deposited on a nickel-based superalloy by electroplating method and followed by conventional Al pack cementation.The cyclic corrosion behavior of Pt/Ru-modified bond coating exposed to NaCl plus water vapor has been investigated under atmospheric pressure at 1050℃.The result shows that the cyclic corrosion life of Pt/Ru-modified bond coating is longer than that of the conventional Pt-modified aluminide coating in the presence of NaCl plus water vapor.The addition of Ru makes the coating possess the increased strength and suppress the rumpling behavior.The absence of rumpling may be responsible for the improved corrosion resistance of Pt/Ru-modified aluminide coating.

Optimized composition for bonding assistant coat in carbon steel sandwich panels

On the basis of the alloying theory of bonding assistant coat （BAC）, taking into account of the interaction of alloy elements, the regressive equation, which relates the wetting ability of bonding assistant coat with the contents of Mn, Ni, Si, Sn, and B, was es- tablished by using quadratic regression orthogonal design of five factors. The influence of elements and their interaction on the wetting ability was analyzed. The ranges of alloy elements were optimized. The melting point of bonding assistant coat was measured by using differential thermal analysis. The results show that the interactions of Ni and Mn, Ni, and Sn can increase the wetting ability obviously and the melting point of bonding assistant coat has been decreased.

The effect of zirconium coating on bonding strength of porcelain to titanium

The Zr coating was deposited on titanium surface using the magnetron sputtering technique. Effects of Zr coating on microstructure and mechanical properties of porcelain fired to titanium have been investigated. The results show that interdiffusion of elements occurs during porcelain firing, and the Zr coating can effectively protect titanium surface from excess oxidation. The strength of bond zone with Zr coating deposited for 1 hour reaches 29. 7 MPa, which has increased by 26.4% as compared with that of bond zone without coating （23.5 MPa）.

Electrochemical and Reaction Bonding Processing of Thick ZrO_2/Al_2O_3 Composite Coatings

A novel technique combining electrophoretic deposition (EPD) and reaction bonding process (RBP) is developed to fabricate thick ZrO2/Al2O3 composite coatings. Mixed organic solvents are used here to make suspension containing yttria stablised zirconia (YSZ) and aluminium (Al). The results show that densely packed green form coatings are deposited using a mixture of ethanol and acetylacetone as suspension medium and ball milling for 48 hours. On subsequent heat treatment, melting and oxidation of aluminium in the green forms promote densification during sintering. By these means, thick, uniform and crack-free ZrtVA^Oa composite coatings have been fabricated on metal substrate.

EVALUATIONS OF INTERFACE BOND STRENGTH BETWEEN THERMAL SPRAYED COATINGS AND SUBSTRATS

A novel test method of measuring the interface bond strength between a thermal sprayed coating and substrate is put forward first in this paper. The test method is simple and reliable, and exists no any inherent shortcoming and controversy. The interface bond strength obtained by the test method is completely the inherent property of the interface and depends only on coating material properties, spray conditions, and technique of depositing the coating. By extensive tests, it is shown that the test tesults are very tepeatable and reliable. Furthermore, from this test, the critical coating thickness under which the coating spall can not emerge is also obtained.

Colloidal Alumina-bonded TiB_2 Coating on Cathode Carbon Blocks in Aluminum Cells

Self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) with reduction process was used to fabricate TiB2 powder from TiO2-B2O3-Mg system. The colloidal alumina-bonded TiB2 paste was prepared and coated on the cathode carbon blocks. Various properties of the baked paste such as the corrosive resistance, thermal expansion and wettability were tested. Experimental results showed that the colloidal alumina-bonded TiB2 coating could be well wetted by liquid aluminum; and the thermal expansion coefficient of the coated material was 5.8x10(-6) degreesC(-1) at 20-1000 degreesC, which was close to that of the traditional anthracite block cathode (4x10(-6) degreesC(-1)); the electrical resistivity was 8 mu Omega (.)m at 900 degreesC when the content of alumina in the coated material was about 9% in mass fraction. In addition, some other good results such as sodium resistance were also reported.

PREPARATION AND ITS WEAR RESISITANCE OF WC-Co/NiCrBSi METALLURGICAL BONDED COMPOSITE COATING

A WC-Co/NiCrBSi composite coating was made on 42CrMo steel through vacuum brazing technology. The effects of cobalt and WC-17Co content on the properties of the coating were analyzed. The abrasive wear resistance decreased as the cobalt content increased. The tensile strength of the coating increased with the increase of the WC-17Co content and the maximum strength approaches to 184MPa. The abrusive property of the composite coating is better than that of the WC-17Co/NiCrBSi flame overlaying and CoCrW overlaying.

Bonding strength of graded anti-corrosive coatings of fluoroethylenepropylene (FEP)/polyphenylene sulfide (PPS)

Fluororesin-based anti-corrosive coatings including graded FEP/PPS were prepared on carbon steel by melt powder coating, the bonding strength of all coating systems was determined by the pull-off test. It is found that the poor adhesion of fluororesin coatings to metallic substrates is improved obviously by the graded coating structure of FEP/PPS, and the bonding strength reaches up to 11.8 MPa for the five-layer system. Examination by electron probe microanalysis （EPMA） verifies that the distribution of main components is graded in the five-layer system, which is responsible for the enhancement of the interfacial bonding.

Effects of intermixing process on bonding strength of IBED CrN coatings

The coating substrate bonding strengths under different intermixing processes were evaluated by scratch and spherical rolling contact fatigue methods. The results show that for low bombarding energy of N ions dynamic recoiling at 10 keV and 20 keV, the coating layers are of excellent bonding strengths. The bonding strength of CrN coating with 40 keV static recoiling is higher than that of low energy(20 keV). On the other hand, the bonding strength of coating with 40 keV dynamic recoiling is much lower than that of static recoiling at the same energy and even less than that of dynamic recoiling intermixings at 10 keV and 20 keV energy. The results of scratch and spherical rolling contact fatigue methods exhibit the same trend for each group of recoiling methods, yet the results of the scratch and fatigue tests for two groups do not agree with each other.

On the oxidation and interdiffusion behavior of an AlCoCrFeNiY high-entropy alloy bond coat on a directionally solidified Ni-based superalloy

The oxidation and interdiffusion behavior of a novel AlCoCrFeNiY bond coat deposited on a directionally solidified Ni-based superalloy were systematically studied at 1050,1100 and 1150°C,and compared with a conventional NiCoCrAlY coating deposited on the same substrate.The AlCoCrFeNiY bond coat exhibits lower oxide growth rates due to its large columnar grains and low Al activity at the oxide scale/bond coat interface.Meanwhile,AlCoCrFeNiY has higher resistance to oxide spallation than NiCoCrAlY,which is attributed to the formation of a clean and defect-free metal/oxide interface.Significant interdiffusion occurs across the AlCoCrFeNiY/superalloy substrate interface.Our experimental evidence and thermody-namic modelling suggest that Fe accelerates interdiffusion and destabilizes theγ’phase,thereby causing the formation of a thick andγ’-depleted interdiffusion zone.In addition,the AlCoCrFeNiY bond coat un-dergoes more Al depletion and subsequentβtoγtransformation compared with NiCoCrAlY.Based on the findings in this work,a novel AlCoCrFeNiY/NiCoCrAlY double-layer bond coat was designed,tested and validated to achieve optimal balance between oxidation and interdiffusion.

DETERMINATION OF CREEP PROPERTIES OF THERMAL BARRIER COATING(TBC)SYSTEMS FROM THE INDENTATION CREEP TESTING WITH ROUND FLAT INDENTERS

Indentation creep behavior with cylindrical flat indenters on the thermal barrier coating (TBC) was studied by finite element method (FEM). On ike constant applied indentation creep stress, there is a steady creep rate for each case studied for different creep properties of the TBC system. The steady creep depth rate depends on the applied indentation creep stress and size of the indenters as well as the creep properties of the bond coat of the TBC and the substrate. The possibilities to determine the creep properties of a thermal barrier system from indention creep testing were discussed. As an example, with two different size indenters, the creep properties of bond coat of the TBC system can be derived by an inverse FEM method. This study not only provides a numerical method to obtain the creep properties of the TBC system, but also extends the application of indentation creep method with cylindrical flat indenters.

Hydroxyapatite coating on pretreated CoNiCrMo prosthesis

In order to improve the quality of the bio-active coating on medical grade CoNiCrMo substrate, hydroxyapatite(HA) coatings were produced via low-temperature dip-coating route on substrates treated using various surface pre-treating methods. The surface and cross-sectional morphologies of HA coatings were observed by SEM, as well as the bonding strength between coatings and substrates after different pre-treatments were characterized according to ASTM C633. The low-temperature HA dip-coating method with the substrate merely oxidized at 600℃ can provide a high quality HA coating for CoNiCrMo, of which the bonding strength reaches (58±5)MPa, higher than that of the clinically used HA coatings on Ti-alloys produced via plasma spray route, as well as a HA coating with full crystallinity and high phase-purity, which is more in-vivo stable than plasma sprayed HA coating.

Depth Sensing Indentation of Oxidized Plasma Sprayed CoNiCrAlY Coatings

The aim of the present work is to analyze the evolution of microstructural and mechanical properties of Air Plasma Sprayed (APS) CoNiCrAlY coatings after early stage high-temperature oxidation. Phase analysis and oxide scale characterization were performed by using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD).

Effect of Self-adhesive Resin Cement and Tribochemical Treatment on Bond Strength to Zirconia

Aim To evaluate the interactive effects of different self- adhesive resin cements and tribochemical treatment on bond strength to zirconia. Methodology The following self-adhesive resin cements for bonding two zirconia blocks were evaluated： Maxcem （MA）, Smartcem （SM）, Rely X Unicem Aplicap （UN）, Breeze （BR）, Biscem （BI）, Set （SE）, and Clearfil SA luting （CL）. The specimens were grouped according to conditioning as follows： Group 1, polishing with 600 grit polishing paper; Group 2, silica coating with 110 μm Al2O3 particles which modified with silica; and, Group 3, tribochemical treatment - silica coating ＋ silanization. Specimens were stored in distilled water at 37℃ for 24 hours before testing shear bond strength. Results Silica coating and tribochemical treatment significantly increased the bond strength of the MA, UN, BR, B1, SE and CL to zirconia compared to #600 polishing. For both #600 polished and silica coating treatments, MDP- containing self-adhesive resin cement CL had the highest bond strengths to zirconia. Conclusion Applying silica coating and tribochemical treatment improved the bond strength of self-adhesive resin cement to zirconia, especially for CL.

Abrasive wear behavior of cast iron coatings plasma-sprayed at different mild steel substrate temperatures

Three kinds of cast iron coatings were prepared by atmospheric plasma spraying. During the spraying, the mild steel substrate temperature was controlled to be averagely 50, 180, and 240℃, respectively. Abrasive wear tests were conducted on the coatings under a dry friction condition. It is ibund that the abrasive wear resistance is enhanced with the substrate temperature increasing. SEM observations show that the wear losses of the coatings during the wear tests mainly result from the spalling of the splats. Furthermore, the improved wear resis- tance of the coatings mainly owes to the formation of oxides and the enhancement in the mechanical properties with the substrate temperature increasing.

Laser cladding of titanium alloy coating on titanium aluminide alloy substrate

A new diffusion bonding technique combined with laser cladding process was developed to join TiAl alloy to itself and Ti alloys. In order to enhance the weldability of TiAl alloys, Ti alloy coatings were fabricated by laser cladding on the TiAl alloy. Ti powder and shaped Ti alloy were respectively used as laser cladding materials. The materials characterization was carried out by OM, SEM, EDS and XRD analysis. The results show that the laser cladding process with shaped Ti alloy remedy the problems present in the conventional process with powder, such as impurities, cracks and pores. The diffusion bonding of TiAl alloy with Ti alloy coating to itself and Ti alloy was carried out with a Gleeble 1500 thermal simulator. The sound bonds of TiAl/TiAl, TiAl/Ti were obtained at a lower temperature and with shorter time.

Research on Laser Gladded Nickel Based Nanometer Tungsten Carbide Composite Coating

CO2 laser is adopted on the surface of austenitic stainless steel (ICrlSNiQ) to clad nickel based nanometer WC/Co composite coating. SEM, EDAX, XRD, AFM and Scratch Testers are adopted to conduct analysis and research on the microstructure, composition, phase and bonding strength of the coating. Results indicate that the microstructure of coating is metallurgically bonded with stainless steel base, eliminating porosities and cracks. The coating has a considerable quantity of nanometer particles visible with a granularity ^lOOnm under a nanoscope atomic microscope. The bonding strength of the laser cladded coating is remarkably improved respectively compared with conventional hot-sprayed coating and spray welding. The nanometer effect of nanometer WC/Co introduced into the coating plays an important role in the laser cladding processes.
