Inconel 713C

Inconel 713C is a nickel-based superalloy usually considered as a material of poor weldability due to its susceptibility to hot cracking in the heat-affected zones. Cold spray, a solid-state deposition technology that does not involve melting, can be proposed as a methodology to deposit Inconel 713C for surface enhancement of other target components. In this study, Inconel 713C coating was deposited on Inconel 718 substrate with a high-pressure cold spray system. The coating was characterized in terms of microstructure, hardness, and wear properties. The cold-sprayed Inconel 713C coating has a low porosity level and refined grain structures. Microhardness of the Inconel 713C coating was much higher than the Inconel 718 substrate. The sliding wear tests showed that the wear resistance of the cold-sprayed Inconel 713C coating is three times higher than the Inconel 718 substrate, making the coating a suitable protective layer. The main wear mechanisms of the coating include oxidation, tribo-film formation, and adhesive wear.

Viable Approach

During a Reaction Initiated Accident (RIA) or Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA), passive external-cooling of the reactor lower head is a viable approach for the in-vessel retention of Corium; while this concept can certainly be applied to new constructions, it may also be viable for operational systems with existing cavities below the reactor. However, a boiling crisis will inevitably develop on the reactor lower head owing to the occurrence of Critical Heat Flux or CHF that could reduce the decay heat removal capability as the vapor phase impedes continuous boiling. Fortunately, this effect can be minimized for both new and existing reactors through the use of a Cold-Spray delivered, micro-porous coating that facilitates the formation of vapor micro-jets from the reactor surface. The micro-porous coatings were created by first spraying a binary mixture with the sacrificial material then removed via etching. Subsequent quenching experiments on uncoated and coated hemispherical surfaces showed that local CHF values for the coated vessel were consistently higher relative to the bare surface. Moreover, it was observed for both coated and uncoated surfaces that the local rate of boiling and local CHF limit varied appreciably along the outer surface. Nevertheless, the results of this intriguing study clearly show that the use of Cold Spray coatings could enhance the local CHF limit for downward facing boiling by more than 88%. Moreover, the Cold-Spray process is amenable to coating the lower heads of operating reactors.

AbstractObjective:To investigate the touch-contact antimicrobial efficacy of novel cold spray surface coatings composed of copper and silver metals, regard to their rate of microbial elimination.Design:Antimicrobial time-kill assay.Setting:Laboratory-based study.Methods:An adapted time-kill assay was conducted to characterize the antimicrobial efficacy of the developed coatings. A simulated touch-contact pathogenic exposure to Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923), Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853), and the yeast Candida albicans (ATCC 10231), as well as corresponding resistant strains of gentamicin-methicillin–resistant S. aureus (ATCC 33592), azlocillin-carbenicillin–resistant P. aeruginosa (DSM 46316), and a fluconazole-resistant C. albicans strain was undertaken. Linear regression modeling was used to deduce microbial reduction rates.Results:A >7 log reduction in microbial colony forming units was achieved within minutes on surfaces with cold spray coatings compared to a single log bacterial reduction on copper metal sheets within a 3 hour contact period. Copper-coated 3-dimensional (3D) printed acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) achieved complete microbial elimination against all tested pathogens within a 15 minute exposure period. Similarly, a copper-on-copper coating achieved microbial elimination within 10 minutes and within 5 minutes with the addition of silver powder as a 5 wt% coating constituent.Conclusions:In response to the global need for alternative solutions for infection control and prevention, these effective antimicrobial surface coatings were proposed. A longitudinal study is the next step toward technology integration.
