Tape brazing constitutes a cost-effective alternative surface protection technology for complex-shaped surfaces. The study explores the characteristics of high-temperature brazed coatings using a cobalt-based powder deposited on a stainless-steel substrate in order to protect parts subjected to hot temperatures in a wear-exposed environment. Microstructural imaging corroborated with x-ray diffraction analysis showed a complex phased structure consisting of intermetallic Cr-Ni, C-Co-W Laves type, and chromium carbide phases. The surface properties of the coatings, targeting hot corrosion behavior, erosion, wear resistance, and microhardness, were evaluated. The high-temperature corrosion test was performed for 100 h at 750 C in a salt mixture consisting of 25 wt.% NaCl + 75 wt.% Na2SO4. The degree of corrosion attack was closely connected with the exposure temperature, and the degradation of the material corresponding to the mechanisms of low-temperature hot corrosion. The erosion tests were carried out using alumina particles at a 90 impingement angle. The results, correlated with the microhardness measurements, have shown that Co-based coatings exhibited approximately 40% lower material loss compared to that of the steel substrate.
Based on the fact that titanium and titanium alloys have poor fretting fatigue resistance and poor tribological properties, it is necessary to apply some surface engineering methods in order to increase the exploitation characteristics of these materials. One may either implement some surface treatment technologies or even deposit overlay coatings by thermal spraying.
The present study is focused on the achieved properties of the ceramic coatings (Al2O3 + 13 wt.% TiO2) deposited onto a titanium substrate using high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) and plasma spraying (APS) respectively.
The effect of the deposition method on the microstructure, phase constituents, and mechanical properties of the ceramic coatings was investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) and nanoindentation tests. The sliding wear performances of the Al2O3–TiO2 coatings were tested using a pin on disk wear tester.
Even though we live in a period when the word digitization is prevalent in many social areas, the COVID-19 pandemic has divided mankind into two main categories: some people have seen this crisis as an opportunity to move the activities online and, furthermore, to accelerate digitization in as many areas as possible, while others have been reluctant, keeping their preferences for face-to-face activities. The current work presents the results of an analysis on 249 students from 11 engineering faculties. The study aims to identify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on students’ educational experiences when switching from face-to-face to online education during a public health emergency or COVID 19-related state of alert. The overall conclusion was that, although the pandemic has brought adverse consequences on the health and life quality of many people, the challenges that humankind has been subjected to have led to personal and professional development and have opened up new perspectives for carrying out the everyday activities.
Impact of cobalt content and grain growth inhibitors in laser-based powder bed fusion of WC-Co
(2022)
Processing of tungsten carbide‑cobalt (WC-Co) by laser-based powder bed fusion (PBF-LB) can result in characteristic microstructure defects such as cracks, pores, undesired phases and tungsten carbide (WC) grain growth, due to the heterogeneous energy input and the high thermal gradients. Besides the processing conditions, the material properties are affected by the initial powder characteristics. In this paper, the impact of powder composition on microstructure, phase formation and mechanical properties in PBF-LB of WC-Co is studied.
Powders with different cobalt contents from 12 wt.-% to 25 wt.-% are tested under variation of the laser parameters.
Furthermore, the impact of vanadium carbide (VC) and chromium (Cr) additives is investigated. Both are known as grain growth inhibitors for conventional sintering processes. The experiments are conducted at a pre-heating temperature of around 800 ◦C to prevent crack formation in the samples. Increasing laser energy input reduces porosity but leads to severe embrittlement for low cobalt content and to abnormal WC grain growth for high cobalt content. It is found that interparticular porosity at low laser energy is more severe for low cobalt content due to poor wetting of the liquid phase. Maximum bending strength of σB > 1200 MPa and Vickers hardness of approx. 1000 HV3 can be measured for samples generated from WC-Co 83/17 powder with medium laser energy input. The addition of V and Cr leads to increased formation of additional phases such as Co3W3C, Co3V and Cr23C6 and to increased lateral and multi-laminar growth of the WC grains. In contrast to conventional sintering, a grain growth inhibiting effect of V and Cr in the laser molten microstructure is not achieved.
TGA-Modelle in BIM-Projekten
(2020)
Die BIM-Methode erfasst in Deutschland mittlerweile alle Gewerke im Bauhauptgewerbe. Für die TGA-Branche hat sich gezeigt, dass die Priorität der Produkthersteller auf der Bereitstellung der Geometriedaten liegt. Weiterführende Metadaten und Attribute (z. B. Material, Masse, Preise, Leistungsdaten) sind oftmals nur in reduzierter Form oder gar nicht vorhanden. An exemplarischen Beispielen von RLT-Reräten und Komponenten werden die geometrischen und semantischen Möglichkeiten beim IFC-Format untersucht.
Ni-based alloys are among the materials of choice in developing high-quality coatings for ambient and high temperature applications that require protection against intense wear and corrosion. The current study aims to develop and characterize NiCrBSi coatings with high wear resistance and improved adhesion to the substrate. Starting with nickel-based feedstock powders, thermally sprayed coatings were initially fabricated. Prior to deposition, the powders were characterized in terms of microstructure, particle size, chemical composition, flowability, and density. For comparison, three types of powders with different chemical compositions and characteristics were deposited onto a 1.7227 tempered steel substrate using oxyacetylene flame spraying, and subsequently, the coatings were inductively remelted. Ball-on-disc sliding wear testing was chosen to investigate the tribological properties of both the as-sprayed and induction-remelted coatings. The results reveal that, in the case of as-sprayed coatings, the main wear mechanisms were abrasive, independent of powder chemical composition, and correlated with intense wear losses due to the poor intersplat cohesion typical of flame-sprayed coatings. The remelting treatment improved the performance of the coatings in terms of wear compared to that of the as-sprayed ones, and the density and lower porosity achieved during the induction post-treatment had a significant positive role in this behavior.
Welding and joining of components processed by additive manufacturing (AM) to other AMas well as conventionally produced components is of high importance for industry as thisallows to combine advantages of either technique and to produce large-scale structures,respectively. One of the key influencing factors with respect to weldability and mechanicalproperties of AM components was found to be the inherent microstructural anisotropy ofthese components. In present work, the precipitation-hardenable AleSi10Mg was fabri-cated in different build orientations using selective laser melting (SLM) and subsequentlyjoined by friction stir welding (FSW) in different combinations. Microstructural analysisshowed considerable grain refinement in the friction stir zone, however, pronouncedsoftening occurred in this area. The latter can be mainly attributed to changes in themorphology and size of Si particles. Upon combination of different build orientations aremarkable influence on the tensile strength of FSW joints was seen. Cyclic deformationresponses of SLM and FSW samples were examined in depth. Fatigue properties of thisalloy in the low-cycle fatigue (LCF) regime imply that SLM samples with the building di-rection parallel to the loading direction show superior performance under cyclic loading ascompared to the other conditions and the FSW joints. From results presented solid process-microstructure-property relationships are drawn.
