ABSTRACTLynntech, Inc has successfully researched and demonstrated a unique method for the manufacture of quasicrystalline (QC) coatings that utilizes the process of electrocodeposition. The purpose of this study was to optimize the physical-mechanical properties of the QC coatings. All metal substrates were aluminum alloy Al-3004 and codeposition was performed using Al65Cu23Fe12 QC powders in nickel plating solutions. X-ray diffraction spectroscopy was performed in order to verify the attachment of quasicrystals to the aluminum alloy substrate and coated samples displayed identical spectra to those of raw QC powders. The average contact angle θ was 117.2° for electrocodeposited QC coatings. Friction was monitored during pin-on-disk wear tests and QC coated samples had coefficients of friction as low as 0.01 and an average value of 0.05 with samples showing no visible wear scar. Lynntech's electrocodeposited quasicrystalline coatings withstand high temperatures and exhibit low wear and friction characteristics with a low surface energy making them ideal for cookware, as well as various other applications such as bearings, landing gear and engine parts, where thermal and mechanical conditions are prime importance.

Wear Tests

The wear behavior of powder metallurgical Ti-47Al-2Cr-0.2Mo alloy prepared by pre-alloyed powders was investigated using pin-on-disk wear tests in different environments, viz, argon, 4% hydrogen in nitrogen, air and oxygen. The disk material was sinter-hot isostatically pressed, yttria-stabilized zirconia. Lower wear rates were found for the TiAl pins in oxygen-free environments, indicating that oxygen play a key role in the wear rate. In contrast, the presence of molecular hydrogen and moisture have nearly no effect. A combination of X-ray diffraction and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy indicated that the abrasive particles present mainly consisted of the zirconia. In addition, zirconia particles were embedded in the worn tips of the TiAl pins and mixed into the tribolayers. The high stress and high contact temperature at the wear surface made the zirconia disk undergo a phase transformation during the dry sliding wear, accompanied by grain pullout, surface uplifting and microcracking. The hard tribolayer with embedded zirconia particles provides some protection against further wear of the TiAl pin. The highly localized, repetitive shear stress during the wear tests may bring about amorphous TiAl in the wear debris. The main wear mechanisms were abrasive wear of two-body and three-body, some delamination and plastic deformation.

Morphology Of Surface

Under the sodium aluminates’ system, microarc oxidation treatment was conducted on the superhard aluminum alloy 7A04 for different times. The microstructure of microarc oxidation ceramic layer was investigated by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The influences of different oxidation times on the adhesion strength of ceramic layer and substrate, the morphology of surface and cross-section, the phase composition and the electrochemical properties were studied. The results indicated that the connection of the coating and substrate appears to be metallurgical bonding and dense ceramic layer, and the surface is in a “volcanic vent” morphology, which is composed of [Formula: see text]-Al2O3 and little [Formula: see text]-Al2O3. The corrosion resistance of ceramic layer is improved significantly in contrast with that of the substrate.

sp2 rich carbon films were produced by using magnetron sputtering deposition. The hardness, friction coefficient and wear volume were elevated by Knoop micro-hardness and pin-on-disk tester; The composition and microstructure of the carbon films have been characterized in detail by combining the techniques of Rutherford Backscattering Spectrum (RBS), X-Ray Photoelectron Spectrum (XPS) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD); the electrical resistivity was measured by Four Probe Methods (FPM). It is found that: the films hardness are 11~17GPa (HK0.05), the friction coefficients are 0.1-0.2, the wear rate is 10-15m3/Nm; The maximum intensity position in the C1s indicates the chemical bonds are mainly sp2; the electrical resistivity is 1~2×10-4Ω·m. XRD proves these carbon films are amorphous.

The 31CrMoV9 steels were plasma nitrided under different gas mixture ratios to investigate an influence of nitrogen amount on wear behavior. The structure, mechanical and tribological behavior of untreated and nitrided 31CrMoV9 steels were analyzed with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), microhardness device, 3D profilometer and pin-on-disk wear tester. The analysis outcomes displayed that the compound layer consists of nitride phases (Fe2N, Fe3N, Fe4N and CrN). Additionally, the thickness of the compound layers, surface hardness and roughness increased with increasing nitrogen amount in the gas mixture. The highest friction coefficient value was obtained at nitrogen amount of 50%, but the lowest value was seen at nitrogen amount of 6%. It was observed that wear resistance of 31CrMoV9 steel improved after plasma nitriding, and the best wear resistance was also obtained from plasma nitrided sample at the gas mixture of 94% H[Formula: see text]% N2.

The welding residual stress has different effects on the mechanical properties of aluminum alloy welded joints, such as size stability, fatigue strength and stress corrosion cracking. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate the welding residual stress accurately. In this paper, the residual stress of A7N01 aluminum alloy welded joints was measured by X-ray diffraction. In contrast to the traditional method, the cos[Formula: see text] method was used in this paper, the results were compared with those obtained by the conventional [Formula: see text] method. In addition, the influence of oscillation unit on the test results of the cos[Formula: see text] method was studied.

Nickel matrix and Si3N4 micron particles were co-deposited on the aluminum alloy by pulse electro-deposition for high temperature performance. Meanwhile, the oxidation resistance was evaluated through the high temperature oxidation test. The phase structure, micrographs and components of the composite coatings were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) together with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) respectively. The results indicated that Si3N4 particles were uniformly distributed across the coating and there were no pores and cracks or other defects at the coating/substrate interface. Ni-Si3N4 composite coatings are characterized by pyramidal micro-crystallite structure. The thickness of Ni-Si3N4 composite coatings were up to 80 μm for 2h. The results also revealed that the Ni-Si3N4 composite coatings presented better oxidation resistance than the pure Ni coating and aluminum alloy at high temperature. After oxidation at 673 K for 8h, the oxidation resistance of Ni-Si3N4 composite coatings presented the improved oxidation resistance behavior compared to pure Ni and the aluminum alloy, respectively.

AA6016 aluminum alloy with a strong β fiber rolling texture was cold rolled to different reductions by means of a special deformation method (side rolling in Chinese). The texture development during side rolling was investigated by X-ray diffraction. The typical B, S and C orientation on the β fiber are transformed into the B'{111}, S'{22 17 9} and C'{011} orientations, respectively. The results show that these orientations are unstable and gradually rotate to the B orientation in the new sample reference frame.
