Coating Formation

The paper analyzes the conditions for the formation of a coating obtained using an electrothermal axial plasma accelerator due to plasma transfer of cathode erosion products. It is shown that by using a cathode of low-melting materials with a high-current pulsed discharge, microdrops are formed and injected from the accelerator falling into the surface to be treated. When colliding with the surface, the drops acquire near-disk shape with a radius of up to 100 μm, cooling on the substrate at a speed of up to 108 K/s. This leads to the formation in the drops of a supersatu-rated solid solution with nonequilibrium structure. The subsequent heat treatment of the coating can result in harden-ing phases precipitation from solid solution causing the increase in coating microhardness.

Before And After

Aluminum-copper-silicon thin films have been considered as an interconnection metallurgy for integrated circuit applications. Various schemes have been proposed to incorporate small percent-ages of silicon into films that typically contain two to five percent copper. We undertook a study of the total effect of silicon on the aluminum copper film as revealed by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and ion microprobe techniques as a function of the various deposition methods.X-ray investigations noted a change in solid solution concentration as a function of Si content before and after heat-treatment. The amount of solid solution in the Al increased with heat-treatment for films with ≥2% silicon and decreased for films <2% silicon.

Microlaminate composites consisting of alternating layers of a high temperature intermetallic compound for elevated temperature strength and a ductile refractory metal for toughening may have uses in aircraft engine turbines. Microstructural stability at elevated temperatures is a crucial requirement for these composites. A microlaminate composite consisting of alternating layers of Cr2Nb and Nb(Cr) was produced by vapor phase deposition. The stability of the layers at elevated temperatures was investigated by cross-sectional TEM.The as-deposited composite consists of layers of a Nb(Cr) solid solution with a composition in atomic percent of 91% Nb and 9% Cr. It has a bcc structure with highly elongated grains. Alternating with this Nb(Cr) layer is the Cr2Nb layer. However, this layer has deposited as a fine grain Cr(Nb) solid solution with a metastable bcc structure and a lattice parameter about half way between that of pure Nb and pure Cr. The atomic composition of this layer is 60% Cr and 40% Nb. The interface between the layers in the as-deposited condition appears very flat (figure 1). After a two hour, 1200 °C heat treatment, the metastable Cr(Nb) layer transforms to the Cr2Nb phase with the C15 cubic structure. Grain coarsening occurs in the Nb(Cr) layer and the interface between the layers roughen. The roughening of the interface is a prelude to an instability of the interface at higher heat treatment temperatures with perturbations of the Cr2Nb grains penetrating into the Nb(Cr) layer.

The effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and properties of Cu-3Ti-1Al alloy was investigated. The microstructure was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM), and the hardness and electrical conductivity were tested as well. The results showed that the hardness and electrical conductivity of Cu-3Ti-1Al alloy increased significantly after solid solution and ageing treatment. The strengthening effect of Cu-3Ti-1Al alloy was attributed to the formation of intermetallic phase such as Ti3Al and fine precipitates of coherent β-Cu4Ti. With increase of the aging time and the temperature, the precipitates became coarse and incoherent with Cu matrix, and the discontinuous precipitate β started to grow from grain boundaries toward grain interior, which decreased hardness. As the formation of Ti3Al, β-Cu3Ti and β-Cu4Ti phase can efficiently reduce Ti concentration in Cu matrix. The electrical conductivity of Cu-3Ti-1Al alloy increases. In the range of experiments, the optimal heat treatment process for Cu-3Ti-1Al alloy is solid solution at 850°C for 4h and ageing 500°C for 2h, and the hardness and electrical conductivity are 227HV and 12.3%IACS, respectively.

The effects of severe plastic deformation (SPD) by isothermal rolling at the temperature of liquid nitrogen combined with prior- and post-SPD heat treatment, on microstructure and hardness of Al-4.4%Cu-1.4%Mg-0.7%Mn (D16) alloy were investigated. It was found no nanostructuring even after straining to 75%. Сryodeformation leads to microshear banding and processing the high-density dislocation substructures with a cell size of ~ 100-200 nm. Such a structure remains almost stable under 1 hr annealing up to 200oC and with further temperature increase initially transforms to bimodal with a small fraction of nanograins and then to uniform coarse grained one. It is found the change in the alloy post–SPD aging response leading to more active decomposition of the preliminary supersaturated aluminum solid solution, and to the alloy extra hardening under aging with shorter times and at lower temperatures compared to T6 temper.

The widely adopted temperature for solid solution heat treatment (ST) for the conventionally fabricated Inconel 718 is 1100 °C for a hold time of 1 h or less. This ST scheme is, however, not enough to dissolve Laves and annihilate dislocations completely in samples fabricated with Laser metal powder bed fusion (L-PBF) additive manufacturing (AM)-Inconel 718. Despite this, the highest hardness obtained after aging for ST temperatures (970–1250 °C) is at 1100 °C/1 as we have ascertained in our previous studies. The unreleased residual stresses in the retained lattice defects potentially affect other properties of the material. Hence, this work aims to investigate if a longer hold time of ST at 1100 °C will lead to complete recrystallization while maintaining the hardness after aging or not. For this study, L-PBF-Inconel 718 samples were ST at 1100 °C at various hold times (1, 3, 6, 9, 16, or 24 h) and aged to study the effects on microstructure and hardness. In addition, a sample was directly aged to study the effects of bypassing ST. The samples (ST and aged) gain hardness by 43–49%. The high density of annealing twins evolved during 3 h of ST and only slightly varies for longer ST.

AbstractIn this study, the effect of solid solution temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of the AA7075 alloy after T6 heat treatment was investigated. Following solid solution at five different temperatures for 2 hours, the AA7075 alloy was quenched and then artificially aged at 120∘C for 24 hours. Hardness measurements, microstructure examinations (SEM+EDS, XRD) and tensile tests were carried out for the alloys. The results showed that the increased solid solution temperature led to formation of precipitates in the microstructures and thus caused higher hardness and tensile strength.

The development of aerospace engineering and mechanical engineering directly depends on the development of new metal materials and advanced technologies. The problem of creating materials and their types of processing to increase the level of operational properties is relevant in connection with the complication and tightening of working conditions of modern technologies. One of the most important tasks of contemporary aircraft construction is to increase the operational properties of the surface layer. The purpose of the article is to elucidate the effect of high-current electron beams of microsecond duration on changes in the surface layers of the heat-resistant multicomponent ion-plasma coating Ni-Cr-Al-Y under various conditions. Using a complex of metallophysical research methods, the physicochemical and structural-phase states of the surface layer were studied before and after modification of the samples. These samples were coated with heat-resistant condensed ion-plasma coatings of three different compositions using nine high-current electron beams in 9 modes with different values of electron energy and number of pulses in the selected interval of electron energy. An analysis of the structural phase changes occurring during modification was carried out. Cylindrical samples of targets made of heat-resistant nickel alloy ZhS36 coated with ion-plasma condensed multicomponent coating SDP-2 + VSDP-16. These samples were used according to serial technology, both with subsequent modification using highcurrent electron beams and without modification. It was found that chromium in the initial state is unevenly distributed: chromium is present in the particles; the matrix is depleted in chromium. The research results can be useful for scientists to study the properties of heat-resistant multicomponent ion-plasma coatings Ni-Cr-Al-Y and the effect of high-current electron beams on it, as well as for the manufacture of more heat-resistant materials in aerospace engineering and mechanical engineering.
