The 2 at.% and 4 at.% Cr were added into the alloy,(respectivel named 2 Cr and 4 Cr compared to the Cr-free ternary alloy, 0 Cr alloy). The alloys' microstructure and compositio as well as the composition distribution of the oxidation scale were analyzed by means of Scanning Electro Microscopy(SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy(EDS), and X-Ray Diffractometry(XRD). The results show that the addition of Cr decreases the grain size of the Nb-TiAl alloy and leads to a transformation from a full lamellar structure to a nearly fully lamellar structure. When oxidized at 1,073 K for 200 h, the oxidized mass gai of the alloy increases with an increase in Cr addition amount in the first 100 h and decreases in the last 100 h With the increase of Cr content, the oxidation surface turns compact but uneven in morphology, which may affec the oxidation resistance of the alloy by increasing the peeling off risk of the oxidation layer at friction conditions.展开更多

The result shows that the microstructure evolution is strongly affected by the thermal history of LAM process. Primary α (αp) with different morphologies, secondary α (αs) and martensite α' can be observed at different positions of the LAMed specimen. Annealing treatment can promote the precipitation of rib-like α phase or acicular α phase. As a result, it can increase or decrease the microhardness. The as-deposited L-direction and T-direction specimens contain the same phase constituent with different morphologies. The tensile properties of the as-deposited LAMed specimens are characterized of anisotropy. The L-direction specimen shows the character of low strength but high ductility when compared with the T-direction specimen. After annealing treatment, the strength of L-direction specimen increases significantly while the ductility reduces. The strength of the annealed T-direction specimen changes little, however, the ductility reduces nearly by 50%.展开更多

The microstructure of the siliconized coating on the TiAl-based alloy was analyzed and its effect on oxidation resistance was investigated. The specimens before and after cycle oxidation were examined by XRD and SEM equipped with XEDS. The results showed that the coating is composed of a thin Al2O3 outer layer and a composite inner layer of Ti5Si3 with an appropriate amount of Al2O3 dispersed in. Cycle oxidation tests showed that the high temperature oxidation resistance of TiAl-based alloy was greatly improved by forming such composite coating. No spaliation and crack happened and the weight gain was very small after cycle oxidation at 900℃ for 314h.展开更多

The microstructure, phase composition and element composition as well as surface profile of the PEO coatings were analyzed by means of scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy（EDS）, and threedimensional（3 D） optical profilometry. The corrosion and wear properties were evaluated by electrochemical potentiodynamic polarization in 3.5 wt% Na Cl solution and ball-on-disc wear tests, respectively. The results showed that the anions of the additives effectively participated in the coating formation influencing its microstructural features, chemical composition, corrosion resistance and tribological behaviour. It was observed that the sample treated by PEO in the electrolyte solution containing K2ZrF6 as an additive showed better corrosion and abrasive resistance.展开更多
