Zrc Coating

In this work, atmospheric plasma spray (APS) technology was applied to fabricate ZrC-W composite coatings. The microstructure of the composite coatings was characterized. The influence of W content on the ablation-resistant and thermal shock properties of ZrC-W composite coatings was evaluated using a plasma flame. The results show that the ZrC-W composite coatings had typically lamellar microstructure, which was mainly made up of cubic ZrC, cubic W and a small amount of tetragonal ZrO2. The ZrC-W coatings had improved ablation resistant and thermal shock properties compared with those of the pure ZrC coating. It was supposed that the improved density, thermal conductivity and toughness of the composite coatings contributed to this phenomenon.

In this work, Al/SiO2composite coatings were deposited on the surface of aluminum alloy through atmospheric plasma spray. The effects of SiO2volume in Al/SiO2composite powders on the deposition behavior were investigated. It was found that the deposition of the Al/SiO2composite powder became more difficult through plasma spray with the increasing of SiO2contents. There were reactions between aluminium and silicon oxide during the deposition of Al/SiO2powders in the plasma flame. The reactions were helpful to interface cohesions between aluminium and silicon oxide. Al/SiO2(60:40, 80:20) composites were more suitable for deposition and well interface cohesion through atmospheric plasma spray.

Nickel-based alloys are commonly used as protective coating materials for surface protection applications owing to their superior resistance to corrosion, wear and high-temperature oxidation. It is urgent to study the fundamental mechanism between the structure and corrosion properties of the Nickel-base composite coatings. This paper, therefore, focuses on clarifying the mechanisms of the microstructure influencing the acid corrosion and mechanical characteristics of the as-sprayed NiCrBSi coating and post-heat-treated coating. The formation mechanisms of the amorphous phase of flat particles during the plasma spray process were studied by using X-ray diffraction analysis, Raman spectroscopy and confocal laser scanning microscope at first. Then the evolutionary process of the corrosion structure and phase of the coating in the accelerated corrosion experiment is directly visualized by using scanning electron microscopy and energy spectrum analysis. The mechanical properties of the amorphous NiCrBSi coatings are lastly measured by microhardness and friction wear tests. The critical phenomena and results help to elucidate the relative influence of the surface features of atmospheric plasma sprayed coatings on acid corrosion responses and wear resistance, aiming at contributing to the development of a protective technique for electrical engineering.

Abstract Zirconia-based thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), produced using Vacuum Plasma Spray (VPS) technology, were recently subjected to burner rig testing. The VPS TBC performance was compared to TBCs deposited using conventional Atmospheric Plasma Sprayed (APS) and Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition (EB-PVD) techniques. All of the coatings consisted of an MCrAlY bond coat and a partially stabilized ZrO2-8%Y2O3 (PSZ) top coat. The TBC coated pins (6.35 mm in diameter) were tested using gas temperatures ranging from 110CC to 1500°C. The pins were tested to failure under severe conditions (1500°C gas temperature, with no internal cooling). The initial testing indicated that under typical operating gas temperatures (1400°C), the VPS TBC performance was comparable, if not superior, to conventional TBCs. Following the encouraging results, thick composite TBCs, produced in a single-step operation, were investigated. Preliminary work on ZrO2-8% Y2O3/Ca2SiO4 composite TBCs with interlayer grading included thermal shock testing and temperature drop measurements across the TBC. The composite TBC thicknesses ranged from 850µm to 1.8 mm. Initial results indicate that thick adherent composite TBCs, with high resistance to severe thermal shock, can be produced in a single step using the VPS process.
