Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of thermal barrier coating materials, in particular to a composite thermal barrier coating and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the in-depth development of national manned spaceflight, deep space exploration, hypersonic vehicle and other technologies, the flight speed of the vehicle is continuously improved. The hot end components (nozzle, combustion chamber, turbine blade, nose cone, etc.) need to withstand the harsh environment of super 1600℃ high temperature, cold and hot impact, high temperature airflow scouring, etc. during operation, and also need to withstand long-time high temperature service, which puts forward extremely high and even unattainable requirements for the heat protection and thermal insulation comprehensive performance of the vehicle metal structural parts.
[0003] Coating a thermal protection coating with excellent thermal insulation and other properties on the surface of the vehicle metal substrate can effectively prevent the oxidation, ablation and impact damage of the substrate metal, thereby significantly improving the service life of the component. Thermal barrier coating is a typical thermal insulation coating, which is widely used as a high-temperature protective coating to improve the durability and performance of gas turbines, aircraft engines, etc.
[0004] At present, the most widely used thermal barrier coating ceramic material is Y2O3 partially stabilized ZrO2 (Yittium Partially Stabilized Zirconia, abbreviated as YSZ). YSZ thermal barrier coating can exhibit excellent comprehensive performance at service temperature (below 1200℃). However, phase transition will occur at high temperature above 1200℃, which will cause the volume of the coating to increase and form cracks, and the Y2O3 in the ceramic layer will be continuously consumed by reacting with the medium and impurities in the working environment, causing the overall instability and failure of the thermal barrier coating. Based on the above problems of YSZ thermal barrier coating, in order to increase the thermal stability and chemical stability of the hot end component at super high temperature above 1600℃, an anti-ablation coating can be prepared on the surface of the thermal barrier coating, which can resist the erosion of high temperature flame and avoid the failure of the metal substrate due to high temperature damage.
[0005] ZrB2-based ultra-high temperature ceramic material has excellent properties such as high melting point, low theoretical density, high strength and hardness, high thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity, and can maintain good mechanical and chemical stability at high temperature, which can be applied to extreme temperature environments above 2000℃, becoming an ideal high-temperature protective coating material for current earth-to-space vehicles, hypersonic vehicles and rocket propulsion systems. However, current research has found that multi-layer coating of YSZ thermal barrier coating and ZrB2-based ultra-high temperature ceramic material cannot achieve good thermal matching due to the large difference in thermal expansion coefficient between YSZ coating and ZrB2-based coating, which makes the coating difficult to withstand the thermal stress during service at super high temperature and wide temperature range, and prone to coating peeling and other problems.
[0006] In view of the above, a multi-layer composite coating system is proposed to achieve various performance requirements of the coating. For example, the patent with publication number CN111500967A proposes a tungsten-copper alloy surface heat insulation / anti-ablation integrated composite coating and a preparation method thereof. From the surface of the tungsten-copper alloy, it includes a metal bonding layer, a ceramic inner layer, a ceramic transition layer, and a ceramic outer layer in sequence. The ceramic inner layer is an aluminum oxide layer, the ceramic transition layer is an aluminum oxide-rare earth zirconate layer, and the ceramic outer layer is a rare earth zirconate layer. The rare earth zirconate ceramic material used in the ceramic outer layer has low thermal conductivity, excellent heat insulation performance, and good anti-ablation performance. By setting a multi-layer gradient coating structure, the stress caused by thermal expansion mismatch is reduced, and the high-temperature service performance of the coating is improved. However, in the above scheme, the rare earth zirconate and aluminum oxide have the disadvantages of high brittleness, insufficient toughness, poor performance in anti-ultra-high-temperature oxidation and anti-ablation, etc., and are difficult to withstand extreme high temperatures exceeding 1600℃, rich oxygen, and severe high-temperature conditions such as airflow scouring.
[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a thermal protection coating system with more outstanding high-temperature resistance performance. SUMMARY
[0008] The technical problems to be solved by the present application are:
[0009] In existing multi-layer composite heat insulation coatings, metal bonding layers, ceramic inner layers, ceramic transition layers, and ceramic outer layers are used in combination to improve the heat insulation, anti-ablation, and other performance of the coating. To further solve the problem of thermal expansion between multi-layer coatings, some research has proposed using rare earth zirconate ceramic material as the ceramic outer layer to reduce the stress caused by thermal expansion mismatch. However, rare earth zirconate ceramic has the problems of high brittleness, low toughness, poor resistance to high-low temperature cycle impact, insufficient anti-ablation ability, etc., making it difficult to be used in the field of aerospace, etc.

[0081] The difference between the present comparative example and embodiment 1 is that the ceramic thermal insulation layer uses an alumina layer, the ceramic oxygen barrier transition layer uses an alumina-rare earth zirconate layer, and the ceramic ablation-resistant layer uses a rare earth zirconate layer.
[0082] <Test Example>
[0083] Samples: Examples 1-6, Comparative Example 1
[0084] The above samples (5 test samples were randomly taken for each sample) were taken, and the thermal insulation, ablation resistance and other properties of the samples were determined, and the average value was taken as the result. The determination results are as follows in Table 1:
[0085] Table 1 Thermal insulation and other properties of samples
[0086]
[0087] The composite thermal insulation coating prepared in Examples 1-6 can have a room temperature bonding strength of about 40 MPa.
[0088] In addition, the ablation test of the composite heat-insulating coating is carried out by using oxygen-ethyne flame, and the surface temperature of the ablation coating and the back temperature of the alloy substrate are measured by using a laser infrared temperature measuring instrument, so as to test the oxidation and ablation performance of the composite heat-insulating coating in the environment of high temperature, oxygen-rich and airflow scouring. It is found that the surface temperature of the coating during the ablation test is about 1950℃, and the average temperature of the alloy substrate is about 785℃, which indicates that the composite heat-insulating coating has good heat-insulating performance.
[0089] The mass ablation rate of the composite heat-insulating coating after ablation for 300s can be as low as 8.06*10 -4 g / s and below, which is greatly reduced compared with the coating in Comparative Example 1; and as shown in Fig. 2, the ablation of the sample in Example 1 is carried out, the coating after ablation is kept intact and closely covers the surface of the substrate, and no obvious peeling phenomenon occurs. Figure 1 According to the ablation rate determination data, it can be illustrated that the composite heat-insulating coating has significant anti-ultra-high-temperature oxidation and ablation performance.

For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
