Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of functional coatings and composite materials thereof, and in particular to a thermal protective metal enamel composite coating with low infrared emissivity and a preparation method thereof. The coating can be used to reduce the surface emissivity of various high-temperature alloy parts and provide a thermal protection effect. Background Art

[0002] During high-speed flight, the aerodynamic heat released by fuel combustion and the intense friction between the aircraft's surfaces and the atmosphere can cause certain components, such as the nozzle and fairing cone, to be subjected to high temperatures (up to 900°C). The infrared radiation emitted by these thermal components in the 3-5μm and 8-14μm bands will be significantly higher than the surrounding environment, attracting attention from infrared detectors. Therefore, reducing the infrared radiation emitted by thermal components is a top priority for improving aircraft survivability.

[0003] According to the Stephen-Boltzmann law, infrared radiation intensity is proportional to the material's infrared emissivity and surface temperature. Therefore, reducing an aircraft's surface temperature and infrared emissivity are two effective ways to reduce infrared radiation. However, the surface temperature of hot components is primarily contributed by the heat released by fuel combustion. Therefore, directly reducing surface temperature may compromise aircraft power. Clearly, coating hot components with low-infrared emissivity materials is a more effective and convenient method for reducing infrared radiation.

[0004] Based on the characteristics of infrared low-emissivity materials, infrared low-emissivity coatings with potential for medium and high-temperature applications are roughly divided into three categories: metal micropowder coatings, metal films, and inorganic low-emissivity coatings. However, there are still many problems with low-emissivity coatings in my country: (1) The temperature resistance level of the coating material is not high enough, and a new infrared low-emissivity coating system is needed. (2) The high-temperature service life is short and the stability is poor, mainly manifested in: the coating is prone to cracking and peeling under harsh conditions such as high and low temperature thermal shock, high-temperature salt corrosion, and gas thermal corrosion. (3) The process is complex: it has high requirements for production equipment and environment. (4) The overall emissivity has not reached the level of actual application, etc. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Step 1): Various oxides are ball-milled and mixed according to the enamel layer formula at a speed of 300-350 rpm for 20-30 hours. After uniform mixing, they are heated and smelted. The smelting process is as follows: RT → 300-600°C, uniform heating for 0.5-1.5 hours; 300-600°C → 800-1100°C, uniform heating for 25-35 minutes; 800-1100°C → 1300-1550°C, uniform heating for 0.5-1.5 hours; after maintaining a constant temperature of 1300-1550°C for 1-2 hours, water quenching is performed to obtain enamel glaze particles.

[0014] Step 2): ball milling the enamel glaze particles obtained after water quenching to obtain enamel micropowder with a particle size of ≤5 μm;

[0015] Step 3): Using anhydrous ethanol or purified water as a dispersant, 10 to 30 ml of anhydrous ethanol or purified water is mixed with 1 gram of enamel micropowder, and the mixture is subjected to magnetic stirring and ultrasonic oscillation for 15 to 30 minutes to obtain a uniformly dispersed enamel suspension;

[0016] Step 4): Use an air compressor to evenly spray the enamel suspension onto the surface of the high-temperature alloy component at a spraying pressure of 0.2 to 0.4 MPa and a spraying distance of 15 to 40 cm.

The mixture is magnetically stirred and ultrasonically vibrated for 3-5 minutes to obtain a uniformly dispersed metal powder suspension.

[0024] Step 8): Use an air compressor to evenly spray the metal powder suspension onto the platinum-doped enamel layer on the surface of the high-temperature alloy component. The spraying pressure is 0.2 to 0.4 MPa and the spraying distance is 15 to 40 cm.

[0025] The preparation method of the heat-protective metal enamel composite coating with low infrared emissivity comprises the following steps: spraying and then drying in an oven at 200-300° C. for 20-30 minutes to obtain a metal layer.

[0026] The preparation method of the thermal protective metal enamel composite coating with low infrared emissivity, step 9) is specifically as follows: after spraying and drying in sequence, the original blank of the composite coating of enamel layer + platinum-doped enamel layer + metal layer is obtained, and then sintering treatment is carried out. There are two sintering schemes: (1) the composite coating original blank after drying is sintered at a high temperature of 1000-1100 ° C for 10-20 minutes, then taken out and cooled in the atmosphere; after cooling, it is first polished with 2000 mesh sandpaper and then with 1 micron diamond grinding paste to the coating surface. The surface roughness is Ra≤2μm, and a thermal protective metal enamel composite coating is obtained; (2) the original blank of the composite coating after drying is kept at 800-950℃ for 1-3h, then the temperature is raised to 1000-1100℃ in the furnace and sintered at high temperature for 10-20min, and finally the temperature is lowered to 600-800℃ in the furnace, taken out and cooled in the atmosphere; after cooling, it is first polished with 2000 mesh sandpaper and then with 1 micron diamond grinding paste until the surface roughness of the coating is Ra≤2μm, and a thermal protective metal enamel composite coating is obtained.

[0027] The method for preparing the thermally protective metal enamel composite coating with low infrared emissivity has the following performance indicators:

[0028] Thickness ≤ 25μm, surface roughness: Ra ≤ 2μm, bonding strength ≥ 15MPa, no cracks after 1000 times of air cooling at 900℃, insulation temperature ≥ 100℃, seawater immersion corrosion resistance life ≥ 150h, salt spray corrosion resistance life ≥ 1000h, gas thermal corrosion rate ≤ 0.5g / m 2 h, 900℃ fully anti-oxidation grade; in the 3-5μm and 8-14μm bands, the infrared emissivity at 50℃ and 900℃ is less than 0.15.

[0029] The design idea of the present invention is:

[0030] The composite coating designed in the present invention is mainly sprayed on a high-temperature alloy substrate. The composite coating consists of three layers from the inside out, namely a high-temperature resistant enamel layer, a platinum-doped enamel layer and a metal layer (platinum or platinum-silver alloy), which are prepared by cold spraying and sintering in sequence. Based on the good interface bonding between the enamel and the high-temperature alloy and the chemical inertness in the range from room temperature to 900°C, the coating is guaranteed to have excellent interface bonding, high-temperature oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance. In addition, the high-temperature creep during sintering of the enamel fully ensures the seamless connection between the enamel and the metal layer, reducing the internal stress of the coating. The enamel layer and the platinum-doped enamel layer ensure the density and smooth surface of the outermost metal layer. At the same time, the enamel coating incorporating high-toughness heat-resistant metal platinum particles greatly improves the toughness. The high-temperature oxidation resistance of the platinum or platinum-silver alloy itself enables the coating to have both low emissivity and high-temperature stability.

[0031] The composition of the enamel layer designed by the present invention strictly requires the following: calcium oxide 3-7%, strontium oxide 7-13%, potassium oxide 2-6%, and the total content of calcium oxide, strontium oxide and potassium oxide is controlled to 16-22% to ensure interfacial chemical bonding between the enamel layer and the alloy substrate, high-temperature structural stability and excellent antioxidant effect. In addition, the enamel composition ensures high-temperature fluidity of the enamel and its compatibility with platinum particles, ensuring good matching with the high-temperature alloy substrate and the surface alloy layer.

[0032] The advantages and beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0033] (1) The enamel layer of the present invention has a high content of network former components and good high-temperature stability. In addition, highly stable strontium oxide is used to replace highly active solvent components such as zinc oxide and sodium oxide in traditional enamels to increase the firing temperature of the enamel coating to the sintering temperature of the metal layer, while suppressing excessive interface reaction between the coating and the base alloy, thereby obtaining a controllable interface structure between the coating and the alloy.

[0034] (2) The platinum-doped enamel layer of the present invention improves the toughness of the enamel, reduces the sintering stress of the enamel, and improves the thermal shock peeling resistance by adding heat-resistant metal platinum particles.

[0035] (3) The metal layer of the present invention has low infrared emissivity and high-temperature stability. It has a good mechanical fit with the platinum-doped enamel layer by spraying. The smooth surface of platinum or platinum-silver alloy can reduce the emissivity of the entire component to below 0.15. The high-temperature stability of platinum or platinum-silver alloy enables it to serve for a long time at 900°C, which can significantly improve the service life of high-temperature components while reducing the emissivity.

[0036] (4) The thermal protective metal enamel composite coating with low infrared emissivity of the present invention does not require any expensive equipment and has a simple preparation process and can be sprayed on the surface of high-temperature alloy parts of various shapes.

[0051] The mixture was kept at a constant temperature of 1425°C for 1.5 hours and then quenched in water to obtain enamel glaze particles.

[0052] (2) Preparation of enamel micropowder: The enamel glaze particles obtained after water quenching were subjected to planetary ball milling (speed 320 rpm, time 100 hours) to prepare enamel micropowder with a particle size of less than 5 μm.

[0053] (3) Preparation of enamel suspension: A composite enamel suspension was prepared according to the ratio of 1 g enamel powder to 16 ml anhydrous alcohol, and magnetic stirring and ultrasonic oscillation were performed for 20 min to obtain a uniformly dispersed composite enamel suspension.

[0054] (4) Enamel layer spraying: The composite enamel suspension was sprayed onto the GH536 high-temperature alloy sample at an atmospheric pressure of 0.3 MPa using an air compressor.

[0057] Enamel micropowder and platinum powder are used to prepare platinum-doped composite enamel powder. A platinum-doped composite enamel suspension is prepared according to the ratio of 1 g of platinum-doped composite enamel powder to 16 ml of anhydrous alcohol.

The enamel creeps at high temperature during sintering, fully ensuring the seamless connection between the enamel and the metal layer, reducing the internal stress of the coating; the enamel layer and the platinum-doped enamel layer ensure the density and smooth surface of the outermost metal layer, and the enamel coating with high-toughness heat-resistant metal platinum particles improves the toughness; the metal layer has low infrared emissivity and high-temperature stability, and is mechanically interlocked with the platinum-doped enamel layer by spraying. The smooth surface of platinum or platinum-silver alloy reduces the emissivity of the entire component to below 0.15, and the high-temperature stability of platinum or platinum-silver alloy enables it to serve for a long time at 900°C, thereby reducing the emissivity while increasing the service life of high-temperature components.
