Adhesion Strength Test Comparison for HVOF Nickel-Based Superalloy Powders on Steel Substrates and Layer Characterization
2018
Thermal sprayed nickel chrome powders are known as the best materials for combined wear and corrosion applications and represent a good alternative to hard chrome plating. The coating from these materials are resistant to wear abrasion, contact with hard surfaces, particle erosion, fretting and have excellent submerged saltwater corrosion resistance. The work in this paper is focused on determining the adhesion strength for nickel powders and structural characterization of the deposited layers using metallographic analysis. The adhesion strength testing was carried out in accordance with ASTM C633 procedure. During the experimental program, an investigation was also carried out for studying…
New generation super alloy candidates for medical applications: Corrosion behavior, cation release and biological evaluation
2014
Three super alloy candidates (X1 CrNiMoMnW 24-22-6-3-2 N, NiCr21 MoNbFe 8-3-5 AlTi, CoNiCr 35-20 Mo 10 BTi) for a prolonged contact with skin are evaluated in comparison with two reference austenitic stainless steels 316L and 904L. Several electrochemical parameters were measured and determined (E(oc), E(corr), i(corr), b(a), b(c), E(b), R(p), E(crev) and coulometric analysis) in order to compare the corrosion behavior. The cation release evaluation and in vitro biological characterization also were performed. In terms of corrosion, the results reveal that the 904L steels presented the best behavior followed by the super austenitic steel X1 CrNiMoMnW 24-22-6-3-2 N. For the other two super a…
Elaboration of Nickel Aluminide Diffusion Coatings: Application to Oxidation Resistance
2008
Aluminide diffusion coatings are widely used in aeronautic domain. Nickel based superalloys present good mechanical properties and creep resistance at high temperature but their corrosion resistance is somewhat poor. In order to enhance their lifetime at high temperature, aluminide coatings can be applied on alloy surface. Aluminium present on material surface can form, at high temperature, alumina scale which is a protective oxide scale. In the present study, nickel aluminide coatings were carried out by aluminisation in a single step pack cementation process on nickel based superalloys 600 and AM1. Ni-Al intermetallic was obtained in each case. Oxidation tests were carried out at 900°C in…
Solidification microstructure during selective laser melting of Ni based superalloy: experiment and mesoscopic modelling
2019
International audience; A set of single track laser melting experiments was performed in a selective laser melting (SLM). The tracks were done on an Inconel 718 plate with various laser scan velocities at a constant laser power of 150 W. The geometries of the molten pool (MP), as well as the solidified dendrite structures, i.e., primary and secondary dendrite arm spacing (PDAS and SDAS), in the cross sections of the molten path were characterized to evaluate the effect of the laser scan velocity during SLM. Moreover, the local solidification thermal conditions (cooling rate R*, tip growth velocity V* and temperature gradient G*) at the MP bottom were deduced from the SDAS and the geometries…
Multiple Surface Cracking and Debonding Failure for Thin Thermal Coatings
2019
Abstract A mechanical analysis of thin films of quasi-brittle materials used as thermal coatings for superalloy substrate is proposed. The study considers a bi-material element subjected to uniform tension formed by a thin layer of quasi-brittle material (typically a ceramic) bonded on an elastic substrate. The bounding between the coating film and the substrate is realized by a very thin primer which mechanically modeled as a zero thickness cohesive frictional interface. The analysis is developed by a non-linear finite element simulation in which, in order to consider damage size effects, a non-local isotropic damage model is adopted for the quasi-brittle coating. The results of the analys…
Multiple Crack Localization and Debonding Mechanisms for Thin Thermal Coating Films
2020
Experimental tests, carried out on small scale alloy specimens covered on one side with a thin thermal coating, have shown complex failure mechanisms. The failure mechanisms observed are due to the competition between two fracture mechanisms. The two mechanisms are: (i) Vertical tensile coating surface cracks and (ii) debonding shear decohesion mechanisms along the interface between the coating and the substrate. The present paper analyzes the mechanical problem of the nonlinear behavior thin film on a stiff substrate adopting a computational approach. Namely, incremental 2D nonlinear finite element simulations. The stiff superalloy substrate is modeled as a thermo-elastic material. The coa…
Comportement en fatigue thermomécanique à haute température d’un système barrière thermique texturé par laser
2020
In service life of Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC) systems for blade applications can be limited by the top-coat (TC) spallation under thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) loadings. To improve its TMF life, laser texturing at the bond-coat/top coat interface in the CMSX-4 Plus / γ-γ’ BC/ EB-PVD TC system has been investigated.Thanks to the study of the laser-matter interaction, it seems that the different Ni-based single crystal superalloys have similar laser ablation behaviors and they present almost no sub-surface damage after ablation. Nevertheless, the formation of melted matter near created cavities, possibly recrystallized, is often observed.Different patterns (holes, lines, grids) have been…
