Book Suspension Plasma Spraying of Functional Gradient Coatings

Download or read book Suspension Plasma Spraying of Functional Gradient Coatings written by Rafal Tomaszek and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis aims at development of titanium oxide and hydroxyapatite coatings with the use of suspension plasma spraying. This new technique enables obtaining the coatings with very fine crystal grains being smaller than 100 nm (nanostructured). To attain this objective, two type of suspension feeder were developed: (i) with a pressurized vessel and, (ii) with two peristaltic pumps. The suspension were formulated using very fine pigment, surfactant and distilled water. The spraying process was optimized to obtain continuous coatings having thickness ranging from 5 to 25 μm. The coatings microstructure was tested using X-ray photelectrons spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, Xray diffraction, optical and scanning electron microscope. Electron emission from the surface of titania sprayed coatings was also tested and explained by the microstructure. This coating were prepared with a gradient of crystal grain size by spraying initially coarse powder deposit and, on the top, suspension sprayed one: Hydroxyapatite deposits were sprayed staring from suspension formulated from crushing of spray-dried powder. This coatings were realized using a gradient of chemical composition by simultaneous deposition of titania suspension. Titania coatings were chosen in order to improve adhesion to metallic titanium substrate.

Book Advanced Plasma Spray Applications

Download or read book Advanced Plasma Spray Applications written by Hamidreza Salimi Jazi and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-03-21 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, plasma spray has been received a large number of attentions for various type of applications due to the nature of the plasma plume and deposition structure. The plasma gas generated by the arc, consists of free electrons, ionized atoms, some neutral atoms, and undissociated diatomic molecules. The temperature of the core of the plasma jet may exceed up to 30,000 K. Gas velocity in the plasma spray torch can be varied from subsonic to supersonic using converging-diverging nozzles. Heat transfer in the plasma jet is primarily the result of the recombination of the ions and re-association of atoms in diatomic gases on the powder surfaces and absorption of radiation. Taking advantages of the plasma plume atmosphere, plasma spray can be used for surface modification and treatment, especially for activation of polymer surfaces. I addition, plasma spray can be used to deposit nanostructures as well as advanced coating structures for new applications in wear and corrosion resistance. Some state-of-the-art studies of advanced applications of plasma spraying such as nanostructure coatings, surface modifications, biomaterial deposition, and anti wear and corrosion coatings are presented in this book.

Book Three Dimensional Simulation of Coating Build up In Suspension Plasma Spray Process

Download or read book Three Dimensional Simulation of Coating Build up In Suspension Plasma Spray Process written by Siavash Ghafouri Azar and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thermal spray technology is widely used in many industries. The most important purposes of applying coatings are improving functional performance by the ability to work at higher temperature, increasing component life by protecting the surface against degradation, and repairing worn parts without changing the properties of the main part. Nano-structured coatings, which show improved characteristics as compared to conventional ones, have been extensively studied over the recent years. Suspension plasma spray (SPS) is a recently developed process that can produce nano-structured coatings on large surfaces. The technique involves spraying fine molten particles that solidify rapidly in contact with the substrate with grain size less than 100 nm. A suspension of sub-micron or nano-sized particles in a liquid carrier (water and ethanol) is injected in and atomized by the high speed high temperature plasma plume in a DC plasma spray torch. The SPS technique allows us to deposit micron-size particles more efficiently and creates fine grains, and small-sized pore microstructure. The microstructure of SPS coatings results from a series of complicated phenomena influenced by several parameters. Thus, depending on the suspension interaction with the plasma plume, powder types, solid concentration in suspension, substrate preparation method, plasma spray setup, spray distance, powder feed rate, etc. various microstructures can be obtained. Therefore, it is of great interest to predict the SPS coating microstructure within the context of particle conditions upon impact i.e. trajectory, size, and velocity. To understand how the microstructure of SPS coatings relates to particle conditions and predict coating attributes such as porosity, columnar structure, thickness and surface roughness, a three-dimensional predictive model for coating buildup on a substrate has been developed. In this model, the impact properties of each particle that comprise size, velocity, temperature, as well as particle's location near substrate are obtained from a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model simulating the SPS process using a commercial Oerlikon Metco 3MB plasma torch. Subsequently, the trajectory of each particle close to the substrate surface is calculated to determine its final impact location on the substrate or previously deposited particles. It is assumed that particles stick at the impact location according to some prescribed scenarios. The coating structure is specified using a variable f(i,j,k) which is zero when the cell is empty and equals unity when the cell is filled with the spray material. The numerical results can capture the columnar structures observed in SPS coatings due to the shadow effect.

Book Environmental Barrier Coatings

Download or read book Environmental Barrier Coatings written by Kang N. Lee and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global increase in air travel will require commercial vehicles to be more efficient than ever before. Advanced engine hot section materials are a key technology required to keep fuel consumption and emission to a minimum in next-generation gas turbines. Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are the most promising material to revolutionize gas turbine hot section materials technology because of their excellent high‐temperature properties. Rapid surface recession due to volatilization by water vapor is the Achilles heel of CMCs. Environmental barrier coatings (EBCs) is an enabling technology for CMCs, since it protects CMCs from water vapor. The first CMC component entered into service in 2016 in a commercial engine, and more CMC components are scheduled to follow within the next few years. One of the most difficult challenges to CMC components is EBC durability, because failure of EBC leads to a rapid reduction in CMC component life. Key contributors to EBC failure include recession, oxidation, degradation by calcium‐aluminum‐magnesium silicates (CMAS) deposits, thermal and thermo‐mechanical strains, particle erosion, and foreign object damage (FOD). Novel EBC chemistries, creative EBC designs, and robust processes are required to meet EBC durability challenges. Engine-relevant testing, characterization, and lifing methods need to be developed to improve EBC reliability. The aim of this Special Issue is to present recent advances in EBC technology to address these issues. In particular, topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: • Novel EBC chemistries and designs; • Processing including plasma spray, suspension plasma spray, solution precursor plasma spray, slurry process, PS-PVD, EB-PVD, and CVD; • Testing, characterization, and modeling; • Lifing.
