Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of material surface alloying and coating preparation technology, specifically relating to an element-modified aluminum compound cladding coating and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] In the thermal power generation industry, oxidation and corrosion of the inner wall of flow pipes are major factors leading to boiler outages, increasing the unit's operating and material costs by more than 20%. Therefore, researching and developing anti-oxidation technologies suitable for the inner wall surfaces of pipes used in boiler units is of great practical significance.

[0003] Studies have shown that aluminide coatings are effective in addressing oxidation corrosion, wear, and high-temperature ablation of pipe inner walls. However, with the increase in generator power and the extension of service life, single aluminide coatings face the problem of insufficient oxidation resistance. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new type of aluminide anti-oxidation coating with better service performance suitable for workpieces with complex shapes, such as those with large length-to-diameter ratios, and its preparation process. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Step S2: Clean the surface of the workpiece to be plated and set it aside. Pour a sufficient amount of cladding powder into the feed port of the ion cladding device.

[0010] Step S3: Place the workpiece to be plated in an inert atmosphere, and use an ion cladding device to spray cladding powder onto the surface of the workpiece to perform plasma cladding. After cooling, an aluminum cladding coating is obtained.

[0011] Step S4: Treat the cladding residue.

[0012] Optionally, in step S1, FeAl, Al, Pt, and Hf are all in powder form, and FeAl, Al, Pt, and Hf are all sieved through a 1000-mesh sieve.

[0013] Optionally, in step S1, the cladding powder is obtained by wet milling the solid phase component using a planetary ball mill and then drying it.

Simultaneously, the introduction of Pt element modification can provide channels for Al elements, forming dense oxides, inhibiting or reducing the outward diffusion of alloying elements, accelerating the transformation from θ-Al₂O₃ to α-Al₂O₃, improving film-substrate adhesion, effectively inhibiting internal oxidation and internal sulfidation, and enhancing the coating's resistance to hot corrosion. Moreover, the introduction of Hf element modification can aggregate at oxide grain boundaries, hindering further oxidation of the substrate; its oxidation product, HfO₂, can pin the oxide film, enhancing the oxide's anti-stripping properties, thereby improving the coating's oxidation resistance and overall oxidation resistance.

[0039] Step S4: Treat the cladding residue.

[0040] In this embodiment, the method for preparing the element-modified aluminide cladding coating employs a plasma cladding process. Plasma cladding offers advantages such as concentrated heat, short processing time, and minimal heat-affected zone in the cladding area, resulting in high bonding strength between the aluminide cladding coating and the base material. Furthermore, this rare-earth element-modified aluminide cladding coating is prepared using an integrated production line, which not only ensures high production efficiency and controllable thickness but also high process repeatability and strong practicality.

[0041] In addition, by adding La2O3 and NH4Cl to the cladding powder components, the effects of catalytic penetration and activation are achieved, which significantly improves the penetration rate and coating quality. By introducing Pt and Hf co-modified aluminide coatings, the oxide products can be generated to pin the oxide film of the coating, thereby simultaneously improving the oxidation resistance and heat corrosion resistance of the base material.

[0042] Furthermore, the addition of rare earth oxides, based on the diffusion-promoting effect of halides, can pin grain boundaries, refine the matrix structure, improve surface hardness, and enhance the bonding strength between the coating and the substrate in the form of second-phase precipitation. Simultaneously, the introduction of Pt element modification can provide channels for Al elements, forming dense oxides, inhibiting or reducing the outward diffusion of alloying elements, accelerating the transformation from θ-Al₂O₃ to α-Al₂O₃, improving film-substrate adhesion, effectively inhibiting internal oxidation and internal sulfidation, and enhancing the coating's resistance to hot corrosion. Moreover, the introduction of Hf element modification can aggregate at oxide grain boundaries, hindering further oxidation of the substrate; its oxidation product, HfO₂, can pin the oxide film, enhancing the oxide's anti-stripping properties, thereby improving the coating's oxidation resistance and overall oxidation resistance.

[0043] Optionally, in step S1, FeAl, Al, Pt, and Hf are all in powder form, and FeAl, Al, Pt, and Hf are all sieved through a 1000-mesh sieve.

[0044] In the above embodiments, it is helpful to ensure that the components are more uniformly and finely dispersed, and to remove impurities and particles, thereby better ensuring the cladding effect of the aluminide cladding coating.

[0045] Optionally, in step S1, the cladding powder is obtained by wet milling the solid phase component using a planetary ball mill and then drying it.

[0046] In the above embodiments, a cladding powder with fully and uniformly mixed components can be obtained, which helps to better ensure the quality of the aluminide cladding coating during the cladding process.

[0047] Optionally, when wet milling solid components in a planetary ball mill, the wet milling medium is anhydrous ethanol, the ball milling speed is 350-400 rpm, the time is 12-24 h, and the drying conditions are vacuum drying at 80-120℃ for 12-24 h.

[0048] In the above embodiments, wet milling of the solid components is a reasonable method, which helps to ensure the uniformity of the fineness of the cladding powder.

[0049] Optionally, the process parameters for plasma cladding are as follows:

[0050] The cladding current is 80–120 A, the feed rate is 18–22 g / min, the scanning rate is 20–40 cm / min, the nozzle height is 8–12 mm, the rotation speed is 2–5 r / min, the ion gas flow rate is 0.2–0.3 L / min, and the protective gas flow rate is 18–20 L / min.

[0051] In the above embodiments, the parameters of the plasma cladding process are set reasonably, which makes the cladding process have the advantages of concentrated heat, short action time and small heat-affected zone in the cladding area, thereby making the bonding strength between the aluminum compound cladding coating and the base material high.

[0052] Optionally, the inert gas in the inert atmosphere is Ar or N2. Using chemically stable Ar or N2 to provide an inert atmosphere helps to ensure that the workpiece to be plated is not oxidized during the cladding process.

[0053] Optionally, in step S2, the surface of the workpiece to be plated is cleaned with a high-pressure water gun for 5 minutes and then rinsed with alcohol or acetone.

[0054] In the above embodiments, oil stains, dirt and other contaminants on the surface of the workpiece to be plated can be effectively removed and oxide scale can be removed. The surface can be rinsed with alcohol or acetone, providing a clean surface with a metallic luster for subsequent cladding, thereby helping to ensure the strength and stability of the bond between the workpiece surface and the aluminide cladding coating.

[0055] Optionally, the cladding residue is treated, including:

[0056] Use a high-pressure water gun to rinse off the cladding residue on the surface of the workpiece, and then let it air dry naturally.

[0057] In the above embodiments, cladding residue can be thoroughly treated, ensuring the cleanliness of the workpiece surface.

[0058] Optionally, in step S3, the thickness of the aluminide cladding coating is 0.94–2.35 mm. This results in good metallurgical bonding properties of the aluminide cladding coating, leading to high bonding strength between the aluminide cladding coating and the base material.

[0060] 50–80% FeAl, 10–35% Al, 2–5% La2O3, 3–6% Pt, 3–6% Hf, and 1–5% NH4Cl; wherein the sum of the mass percentages is 100%.

[0061] In the above embodiments, by adding La2O3 and NH4Cl to the cladding powder components, the effects of catalytic penetration and activation are achieved, significantly improving the penetration rate and coating quality; by introducing Pt and Hf co-modified aluminide coating, an oxide product pinning coating oxide film can be generated, simultaneously improving the oxidation resistance and heat corrosion resistance of the base material.

[0062] Furthermore, the addition of rare earth oxides, based on the halide-promoted diffusion, can pin grain boundaries, refine the matrix structure, improve surface hardness, and enhance the bonding strength between the coating and the substrate through second-phase precipitation. Simultaneously, the introduction of Pt modification provides channels for Al elements, forming dense oxides, inhibiting or reducing the outward diffusion of alloying elements, accelerating the transformation from θ-Al₂O₃ to α-Al₂O₃, improving film-substrate adhesion, effectively inhibiting internal oxidation and sulfidation, and enhancing the coating's resistance to thermal corrosion. Moreover, the introduction of Hf modification allows for aggregation at oxide grain boundaries, hindering further oxidation of the substrate; its oxidation product, HfO₂, can pin the oxide film, enhancing the oxide's anti-stripping properties, thereby improving the coating's oxidation resistance.

[0063] In the embodiments of this application, the element-modified aluminide cladding coating and its preparation method, under the condition of adjusting the main process parameters such as the composition of the cladding powder and the plasma cladding parameters, produce an aluminide cladding coating with a thickness of 0.94-2.35 mm and good metallurgical bonding. The aluminide cladding coating obtained by the present invention has an oxidation resistance 20-64 times higher than the base material in a 600℃ pure water vapor environment, and an oxidation resistance 24-74 times higher than the base material in a 650℃ pure water vapor environment. This demonstrates that the aluminide cladding coating prepared by the method of the present invention effectively improves the oxidation resistance of the alloy base material in a water vapor environment.
