Coating Microstructure

Thermal spray coatings are used extensively for protection of engineering components and structures in a variety of applications. Due to the nature of thermal spraying process, the coating thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties depend strongly on the coating microstructure, which consists of many individual splats, interfaces between the splats, defects and voids. The coating microstructure, in turn, is determined by the thermal spray process parameters. In order to relate coating process parameters to the final coating performance, then, it is desirable to relate coating microstructure to coating properties. In this work, thermal conductivity is used as the physical parameter of interest. Thermal conductivity of thermal spray coatings is studied by using an image analysis-based approach of typical coating cross sections. Three coating systems, yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), molybdenum, and Ni-5wt.%Al are explored in this work. For each material, thermal conductivity is simulated by using a microstructure image-based finite element analysis model. The model is then applied to high temperature conditions (up to 1200 °C) with a hot stage-equipped scanning electron microscope imaging technique to assess thermal conductivity at high temperatures. The coating thermal conductivity of metallic coatings is also experimentally measured by using a high-temperature laser flash technique.

Abstract An integrated approach was developed for investigation of thermal spray coatings with the amorphous-crystalline structure. The new approach combines methods of metallography, differential thermal and X-ray phase analysis, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray microanalysis. This makes it possible to reveal structural, phase and chemical heterogeneity, determine the degree of amorphization of coatings, temperature and heat of crystallization of the amorphous phase during heating. The new integrated approach was used to study amorphous-crystalline coatings of the Ni-P, Fe-Ni-B and Fe-B systems produced by thermal spraying.

C. C. Berndt advanced investigations of mechanical properties of thermal spray coatings under 4-point bending. He found that this investigation method is sensitive to the mechanical properties of thermal spray coatings.This paper contains the detailed investigation results for thermal spray coatings of zirconium dioxide under 4-point bending, i.e. tests of the specimens subjected to spraying at varying conditions and pre-test soaking with the various duration at 1100 °С.It was established how the mechanical properties of thermal spray coatings changed depending on the spraying mode and high temperature soaking. The test results show that the double heat treatment of coatings is more preferable than one-time heat treatment as it make the properties change linearly. It is more easily controllable during operation of the components with thermal spray coating.

Abstract High-temperature corrosion of critical components such as water walls and superheater tubes in biomass/waste-fired boilers is a major challenge. A dense and defect-free thermal spray coating has been shown to be promising to achieve a high electrical/thermal efficiency in power plants. The field of thermal spraying and quality of coatings have been progressively evolving; therefore, a critical assessment of our understanding of the efficacy of coatings in increasingly aggressive operating environments of the power plants can be highly educative. The effects of composition and microstructure on high-temperature corrosion behavior of the coatings were discussed in the first part of the review. The present paper that is the second part of the review covers the emerging research field of performance assessment of thermal spray coatings in harsh corrosion-prone environments and provides a comprehensive overview of the underlying high-temperature corrosion mechanisms that lead to the damage of exposed coatings. The application of contemporary analytical methods for better understanding of the behavior of corrosion-resistant coatings is also discussed. A discussion based on an exhaustive review of the literature provides an unbiased commentary on the advanced accomplishments and some outstanding issues in the field that warrant further research. An assessment of the current status of the field, the gaps in the scientific understanding, and the research needs for the expansion of thermal spray coatings for high-temperature corrosion applications is also provided.

Abstract Power generation from renewable resources has attracted increasing attention in recent years owing to the global implementation of clean energy policies. However, such power plants suffer from severe high-temperature corrosion of critical components such as water walls and superheater tubes. The corrosion is mainly triggered by aggressive gases like HCl, H2O, etc., often in combination with alkali and metal chlorides that are produced during fuel combustion. Employment of a dense defect-free adherent coating through thermal spray techniques is a promising approach to improving the performances of components as well as their lifetimes and, thus, significantly increasing the thermal/electrical efficiency of power plants. Notwithstanding the already widespread deployment of thermal spray coatings, a few intrinsic limitations, including the presence of pores and relatively weak intersplat bonding that lead to increased corrosion susceptibility, have restricted the benefits that can be derived from these coatings. Nonetheless, the field of thermal spraying has been continuously evolving, and concomitant advances have led to progressive improvements in coating quality; hence, a periodic critical assessment of our understanding of the efficacy of coatings in mitigating corrosion damage can be highly educative. The present paper seeks to comprehensively document the current state of the art, elaborating on the recent progress in thermal spray coatings for high-temperature corrosion applications, including the alloying effects, and the role of microstructural characteristics for understanding the behavior of corrosion-resistant coatings. In particular, this review comprises a substantive discussion on high-temperature corrosion mechanisms, novel coating compositions, and a succinct comparison of the corrosion-resistant coatings produced by diverse thermal spray techniques.

Abstract Residual stresses exert profound influence on the longevity of parts with thermal spray coatings. The distribution and value of the residual stresses depend on method of coating deposition, composition of the applied material, parameters of thermal spraying and methods of post-treatment. Therefore, the study of the influence of the various technological factors on the residual stresses in the plasma spray coatings is very important. Due to heterogeneity of the coating, residual stresses can be determined only by the experimentation by using new methods which take into consideration real values of elastic characteristics and density of elementary layers. Methods and formulas for the calculations of the residual stresses in coatings deposited on bars, rings, discs, cylinders are presented. Experimental results for the various thermal spray coatings are also shown. These results can be used for the optimization of coating deposition and would supplement the existing database.
