Problems solved by technology

For low-alloy carbon steel, iron oxides will be formed during the plasma spraying process, which has self-lubricating properties, but if the process parameters are not properly controlled, excessive oxides will be produced, which will adversely affect the coating performance. The hardness of this coating is low; for cast iron, it contains graphite itself, which can play a certain self-lubricating effect, but a special heat treatment process is often required before spraying to promote the precipitation of graphite in the powder, thus increasing the complexity of the process, and spraying The higher energy in the process inevitably causes the burning of graphite (Y. Tsunekawa, et al. Journal of Thermal Spray Technology, 2006, 15(2): 239)
In addition, the wear damage of these two spray coatings is still relatively serious due to their poor corrosion resistance in acidic environments.

Abstract

The invention provides a plasma spray coating on an aluminum alloy base surface, which is composed of the following components in percentage by weight: 14-25% of chromium, 6-15% of nickel, 0.5-1.5% of carbon, 2.0-4.0% of silicon, 0.8-1.5% of manganese and the balance of iron. A Cr7C3 strengthening phase is dispersed in the austenite microstructure of the coating. The experiment proves that the coating has favorable wear resistance and antiseptic property, and is suitable for an aluminum alloy base surface working in a wearing and corrosive environment, such as an automobile engine cylinder made of an aluminum alloy material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of protective treatment on the surface of an aluminum alloy substrate, in particular to a plasma spray coating on the surface of an aluminum alloy substrate and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Aluminum alloy materials are widely used due to their advantages such as wide source, light weight and good thermal conductivity. But on the other hand, aluminum alloys have poor friction and corrosion resistance, so aluminum alloy workpieces under friction and corrosion conditions need to undergo certain protective treatments. [0003] For example, the application of aluminum alloy engine greatly reduces the weight of the vehicle, which not only helps to improve the power performance of the vehicle, but also is an important way for the modern automobile industry to save energy and reduce emissions. However, the tribological properties of aluminum alloy engine cylinders are very poor. In ad...
