The invention discloses a
plasma spraying preparation method for a micro-nano double-layer PTFE
coating on the surface of a flexible shaft steel wire, and particularly relates to the technical field of functional materials.The
plasma spraying preparation method comprises the following steps that 1, a mandrel and a steel wire are installed on twisting equipment, and an
inductive coupling plasma torch tube is installed on a driving guide rail parallel to the mandrel; 2, the
pickling solution serves as a
raw material, the
pickling solution is atomized into micro-droplets through a feeding
system and an air supply
system, the micro-droplets are rapidly sprayed out of the
torch pipe, and
pickling spray is formed; 3, the twisting equipment is started, the steel wire is twisted around the mandrel, meanwhile, the driving guide rail is started, the twisted steel wire is subjected to acid pickling treatment through acid pickling spray sprayed out of the
torch pipe, and the surface of the steel wire is roughened; 4, feeding of the pickling solution is stopped, high-flow gas is introduced into the torch
pipe through the
gas supply system to form high-speed gas flow, and the residual pickling solution on the surface of the flexible shaft is blow-dried; and 5, starting an
inductively coupled plasma spraying system, injecting the PTFE
emulsion serving as a
raw material into
plasma flame flow, driving a guide rail to move to enable the
plasma flame flow to scan the steel wire on the surface of the flexible shaft, and depositing a PTFE
coating on the surface of the steel wire. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the double-layered PTFE
coating is deposited on the surface of the steel wire by using an
inductive coupling plasma spraying process for the first time in the flexible shaft steel wire twisting process, so that one-step rapid preparation of the anti-
corrosion coating is realized.
