Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of cladding layer preparation, and particularly relates to a cladding layer and a cladding layer preparation process thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Wire additive manufacturing is an advanced manufacturing technology that forms a complex structure or strengthens the surface by depositing cladding layers layer by layer through the combination of continuous wire feeding and high-energy heat sources (such as laser, electric arc or plasma). The core of the technology is to use wire as raw material, and to realize directional accumulation and rapid prototyping of cladding layer preparation by precisely controlling the heat source and the wire feeding path. The technology is widely used in the fields of part repair, surface strengthening and customized manufacturing. The cladding layer is the key product of wire additive manufacturing, which refers to a functional coating formed on the surface of the base material by melting the wire material. In the process of wire additive manufacturing, the cladding layer not only protects the base material and prolongs the service life of the part, but also endows the surface with specific mechanical or physical properties. The performance of the cladding layer directly depends on the composition of the wire material and the process parameters.

[0003] Traditional wire additive manufacturing cladding layers usually use single metal or simple alloy systems (such as pure iron, nickel-based alloy or cobalt-based alloy). The process relies on conventional arc or laser welding technology to form the coating through a simple melting-solidification process. Such process has fixed parameters, poor matching of powder or wire feeding rate and heat source, and lacks fine regulation of the dynamic behavior of the molten pool. In addition, the traditional cladding layer has a single composition, which is difficult to meet the multiple performance requirements of toughening, low friction and wear resistance. Due to the lack of component synergistic optimization and dynamic parameter adjustment, the coating is prone to internal pores, cracks and grain coarsening, which reduces the bonding strength and service life. In addition, the imbalance of the ratio of traditional lubricating phase and hard phase leads to high friction coefficient and large wear rate, which limits its application in harsh working conditions.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0015] Figure 1 The flowchart of the preparation process of the cladding layer of the specific embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present disclosure, the present disclosure will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present disclosure and are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0017] In one aspect of the present disclosure, a cladding layer is provided, which comprises: 50.0-65.0 parts of iron powder; 19-30 parts of a toughness agent; 3.0-5.0 parts of titanium carbide powder; 2.5-5 parts of a composite lubricant; 2.0-4.0 parts of aluminum oxide powder; 0.5-1.5 parts of yttrium powder; 4.0-6.0 parts of chromium powder; 1.0-2.0 parts of silicon powder; and 0.5-1.0 parts of boron powder. In the embodiment, the comprehensive performance of the cladding layer is significantly improved by the multi-component synergistic system of the tough metal, the hard phase and the lubricating phase. Meanwhile, the problems of uneven dispersion and thermal stress concentration in the traditional process are solved by combining high-energy ball milling homogenization, substrate activation pretreatment and dynamic laser cladding parameter regulation. The cladding layer prepared by the application has high strength and toughness, low friction coefficient, excellent impact resistance and wear resistance. Meanwhile, the surface quality is optimized by vacuum annealing and precision grinding. The technical bottleneck of single performance and easy failure of the traditional coating is broken. The application is suitable for high-load and high-wear industrial scenes.

[0018] In some preferred embodiments, the toughening agent includes vanadium carbide powder, cobalt powder and molybdenum powder, and each component is used to balance wear resistance and impact resistance. Among them, vanadium carbide provides a wear resistance skeleton, cobalt-molybdenum alloy provides a toughness matrix, and the three form a "hard point dispersion reinforced composite structure", achieving a three-dimensional balance of "wear resistance-toughness-strength". Especially, the high-temperature synergistic strengthening of vanadium carbide and molybdenum powder forms a composite carbide, effectively improving the high-temperature strength.

[0019] As a further preferred scheme, the content ratio of the vanadium carbide powder and the cobalt powder and the molybdenum powder is (6.0~10.0):(5.0~8.0):(8.0~12.0).

[0020] In other preferred embodiments, the composite lubricant includes boron nitride powder and calcium fluoride powder. Calcium fluoride is a layered solid lubricant that can form a layered film that is easy to shear and slip at high temperatures, significantly reducing the friction coefficient. Especially, the synergistic effect of boron nitride can maintain stable lubrication performance in a wide temperature range. That is, the composite lubricant can reduce the friction coefficient and reduce the stress concentration of the hard phase caused by friction impact; at the same time, the hard phase supports the lubricating film to avoid excessive extrusion and loss of the lubricating phase under heavy load, and the two form a "friction reduction-wear resistance synergistic protective layer". At the same time, the composite lubricant also matches the matrix of the toughening agent to improve the density of the coating.

[0021] As a further preferred scheme, the content ratio of the boron nitride powder and the calcium fluoride powder is (1.5~3.0):(1.0~2.0).

[0022] In other preferred embodiments, the iron powder is prepared by high-temperature reduction reaction of iron ore in a hydrogen reduction atmosphere, and the particle size of the iron powder is 50~150µm.

[0023] In other preferred embodiments, the titanium carbide powder is prepared by high-temperature electric arc smelting of titanium powder and carbon black in an argon protection environment, and the particle size of the titanium carbide powder is 1~10µm.

[0024] In other preferred embodiments, the alumina powder is prepared by calcination decomposition of bauxite at 1200~1500℃, and the particle size of the alumina powder is 5~30µm.

[0025] In some other preferred embodiments, the yttrium powder is prepared by calcothermal reduction of yttrium oxide in a vacuum environment, and the particle size of the yttrium powder is 0.5~5µm.

[0026] In some other preferred embodiments, the chromium powder is prepared by reducing chromium trioxide in a hydrogen atmosphere at high temperature, and the particle size of the chromium powder is 20~100µm.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, in another aspect of this disclosure, a preparation process S100 for the cladding layer described above is proposed, specifically including the following steps S110 to S140: S110, 50.0~65.0 parts of iron powder, 19~30 parts of toughening agent, 3.0~5.0 parts of titanium carbide powder, 2.5~4.0 parts of composite lubricant, 0.5~1.5 parts of yttrium powder, 4.0~6.0 parts of chromium powder, 1.0~2.0 parts of silicon powder, and 0.5~1.0 parts of boron powder are added to a ball mill jar in proportion. The ball milling time is set to 4~6 hours. The components are evenly dispersed by mechanical force and collision to avoid the agglomeration of hard phase. The homogenized mixed powder is obtained by passing it through a sieve with a mesh size ≤50µm and stored in a dry inert atmosphere container for later use. S120. The substrate is sandblasted to remove the surface oxide layer and form an activated surface with a roughness of Ra3.2~6.3µm. The substrate is then immersed in an ultrasonic cleaning tank for 10~15 minutes to remove grease and residual abrasive. The surface is dried with high-pressure nitrogen and then transferred to a preheating furnace to be preheated to 200~300℃ and held for 30~60 minutes to reduce thermal stress during the cladding process.

[0028] S130, Laser Cladding Deposition: The mixed powder is loaded into the powder feeder, and the powder feeding rate is adjusted to match the laser power. When the iron powder particle size is 50~150µm, the powder feeding rate is 30~40g / min, and the laser power is 2500~3500W. Multiple overlapping cladding layers are applied to the substrate surface. The laser focus position is set 1~2mm above the substrate surface, and the molten pool temperature is 1800~2200℃. The temperature is monitored in real time by an infrared thermometer. After each cladding layer, argon gas is used for rapid solidification at a wind speed of 3~5m / s to suppress grain coarsening. The cumulative deposition layer thickness is 1.0~3.0mm.

[0029] It should be noted that in the laser cladding deposition process, a layer of cladding powder is first laid on the surface of the substrate by mixing powder. After laser cladding, a cladding layer is formed. This process is repeated to form multiple deposited cladding layers on the surface of the substrate, accumulating the deposited cladding layers.

[0030] S140. The cladding layer is subjected to stress-relief annealing in a vacuum annealing furnace to eliminate residual stress and improve strength and toughness, and performance testing is performed.

[0031] In step S140, the temperature of the annealing treatment is 650-750°C for 1-2 hours. At this annealing temperature, the cladding layer components (e.g., yttrium powder and toughness agent) can effectively refine the grains and release stress, avoiding the crack problem of the traditional process.

[0032] It should be noted that during the performance test of the cladding layer, mainly including the strength and toughness performance test, the friction performance test, the impact resistance performance test and the wear performance test.

[0053] Table 4 Product performance parameters of the preparation process of Comparative Examples 1-5

[0054] According to the results of Tables 1-4 above, the insufficient vanadium carbide of Comparative Example 1 of the present application caused the strength and toughness of the cladding layer to drop to 950 MPa, and the wear rate was as high as 8.2; the insufficient yttrium powder of Comparative Example 4 caused serious grain coarsening, and the impact toughness was only 18 J / cm 2 ; the excessive boron of Comparative Example 5 caused grain boundary embrittlement, and the wear rate exceeding the interval would cause imbalance of the phase structure or performance degradation, verifying the necessity of the powder ratio range in the present application. Furthermore, when the vanadium carbide content of Example 2 was at the lower limit, the hardness phase was insufficient, resulting in reduced wear resistance and impact toughness; the friction coefficient of Example 3 was the lowest, but the excess lubricating phase caused a slight decrease in strength and toughness; when the yttrium powder content of Example 5 was at the lower limit, grain coarsening occurred, and the wear rate increased significantly; when the yttrium powder content of Example 6 reached the upper limit, the grains were refined, but the ratio needed to be controlled to avoid brittleness; when the vanadium carbide content of Example 7 reached the upper limit, the wear resistance was improved, but the toughness needed to be balanced; and when the boron nitride content of Example 8 was at the lower limit and the molybdenum powder content of Example 9 was at the lower limit, the performance of the cladding layer was degraded. Therefore, the comprehensive performance of Example 1 was the best, with balanced strength and toughness (1250 MPa), low friction (0.18), high impact toughness (45 J / cm 2 ), and low wear rate (2.1 x 10 -8 ).

[0055] In summary, through multiple example and comparative example tests, the best embodiment of the present disclosure is as follows: the toughness agent is 8.0 parts of vanadium carbide, 6.5 parts of cobalt, and 10.0 parts of molybdenum, which optimizes the ratio of hard phase and tough phase; secondly, the composite lubricant is 2.25 parts of boron nitride and 1.5 parts of calcium fluoride, which cooperatively reduces friction; in addition, 1.0 part of yttrium powder refines the grains, and the above components and ratios can improve the strengthening and toughening effect.
