The environment spectrum consists of two modules, namely： salt-spray corrosion and thermal shock. The effect of thermal shock on the mechanical properties was determined via tensile tests; SEM, DCS, and XRD were used to determine the effect of thermal shock on the corrosion products. In addition, the corrosion resistance of the products was ascertained through electrochemical testing. The results show that the mechanical properties and fatigue life of the aluminum alloy will decline with prolonged thermal shock time. The thermal shock process may result in denser surface corrosion products than those formed on the no thermal shock specimens, and transformation of some Al（OH）_3 into Al OOH. Al OOH may have resulted in improved corrosion resistance and hence a lower decrease in the fatigue life after corrosion, compared with that of the no thermal shock specimen. Repeated corrosion/thermal shock may have delayed further decease in the fatigue life. Therefore, selection of an appropriate equivalent thermal shock temperature and time was essential for designing the environmental spectrum.展开更多

The surface oxide layer will result in premature failure and lead to a significant reduction in the service lifetime. The effects of prior oxidation-induced damage under a simulated combustion-gas environment on the fatigue lifetime of the directionally solidified（DS） nickel-based superalloy DZ125 with and without an oxidation-resistant coating were presented. The fatigue lifetime of uncoated samples is adversely affected by prior oxidation exposure. The deterioration of fatigue lifetime in uncoated samples is associated with surface microstructural degradation, which occurs during prior exposure. However,the presence of MCrAlY coating is beneficial for the sample＇s lifetime under high stress. Further scanning electron microscopy（SEM） analysis demonstrates that the coating does not contribute to the initiation mode of fatigue cracks.展开更多
