In order that the above objects, features and advantages of the invention will be readily understood, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to the appended drawings. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. The present invention may be embodied in many other forms than described herein and similarly modified by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention, whereby the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and the like, are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying a relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defining "a first" or "a second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" means at least two, for example, two, three, etc., unless specifically defined otherwise.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and/or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
In the present invention, the cutting performance means the wear resistance and the service life of a tool such as a tap.
In order to overcome complex and severe working conditions and meet the modern processing requirements of high efficiency and high precision, taps generally need surface treatment, mainly comprising surface nitriding, coating treatment and the like. As coating technology matures, coated taps are increasingly dominant in the tap field. The coating tap has the advantages of high surface hardness, good wear resistance, low friction coefficient, oxidation resistance and the like, and can effectively improve the processing precision and the service life of the tap.
Tap materials mainly include tool steel, high-speed steel, cemented carbide, etc., wherein high-speed steel is the most widely used tap material. The coating in the coated tap mainly comprises TiN, tiCN, tiAlN and AlCrN nitride coatings. The TiN coating is the earliest nitride coating, has good mechanical property, good bonding property between high-speed steel and good anti-adhesion abrasion property, and is a common coating for low-speed processing taps; the TiCN coating has higher hardness and low friction coefficient, can effectively prolong the service life of the screw tap, has poorer oxidation resistance, is easy to damage and peel after the processing temperature exceeds 30 ℃, and is only suitable for low-speed tapping; the TiAlN coating has good hardness, wear resistance and better oxidation resistance, is one of the most widely applied coatings in tool coatings, but the TiAlN coating has poor adaptation degree between high-speed steels and has the problem of insufficient binding force, and the coating is easy to peel off in the tapping process; the AlCrN coating has better binding force with high-speed steel, better oxidation resistance and can meet the requirement of high-speed tapping with the assistance of certain cutting fluid, so that the AlCrN coating is widely applied to high-speed processing taps at present. However, the overall hardness of the high-speed steel is lower than that of various coatings, so that the binding force between the high-speed steel and the coatings is insufficient, and the wear resistance and cutting performance of the coating tap are seriously affected.
Based on the above, the first aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a composite coating, comprising the following steps:
arranging a substrate in a reaction cavity, vacuumizing, and preheating the substrate;
argon and hydrogen are introduced into the reaction cavity, first plasma etching is carried out under the condition of arc discharge, and the temperature of the base material is increased to nitriding temperature;
argon and nitrogen are introduced into the reaction cavity, and plasma nitriding is carried out under the conditions of arc discharge and glow discharge, so that a nitriding layer is formed on the surface of the base material;
forming a nitride coating on the nitrided layer;
wherein the method further comprises the following steps before and/or after plasma nitriding: argon is introduced into the reaction cavity, and second plasma etching is performed under the condition of arc discharge.
According to the invention, the steps of preheating, first plasma etching, second plasma etching, plasma nitriding, coating treatment and the like are adopted, and the nitriding layer and the nitride coating are sequentially formed on the surface of the base material, so that a proper hardness gradient is obtained among the base material, the nitriding layer and the nitride coating, the nano hardness, the elastic modulus and the binding force of the composite coating are effectively improved, and the cutting performance of the composite coating is enhanced.
Wherein, the preheating can remove the gas in the substrate, prevents the problems of rupture membrane, falling off and the like in the subsequent coating treatment. The first plasma etching is carried out under the condition of arc discharge, so that the oxide on the surface of the substrate can be removed by utilizing hydrogen ions with reactivity, and ion energy can be transferred to the substrate through collision, thereby playing a role in heating and reducing the energy consumption required by heating to nitriding temperature. And the second plasma etching is carried out under the arc discharge condition, so that the roughness and the surface energy of the surface of the substrate or the surface of the nitriding layer can be increased, the migration of nitrogen element and the growth of the nitride coating are promoted, and the film base binding force, compactness and uniformity of the coating are improved. By utilizing the cooperation of arc discharge and glow discharge, the ionization rate and ion energy of plasma in the nitriding process can be increased, the nitriding temperature is reduced, the nitriding time is shortened, and the nitriding efficiency and the thickness of the nitriding layer are improved. In addition, the nitriding layer can reduce the hardness difference between the base material and the nitride coating, has good affinity with the nitride coating, is beneficial to the growth of the nitride coating, and effectively improves the film-based binding force of the coating.
Optionally, before the step of disposing the substrate in the reaction chamber, the method further comprises the steps of polishing, cleaning and drying the substrate.
Further optionally, the polishing, cleaning and drying the substrate comprises the steps of: polishing the surface of the base material to a mirror surface after polishing, so that the surface roughness of the base material is lower than 50nm; soaking a substrate in hot alkali solution to remove oil, then placing the substrate in alcohol solution to carry out ultrasonic cleaning, and then placing the substrate in deionized water to soak and clean; and (5) drying after cleaning, and wrapping with dust-free paper for standby.
Optionally, the material of the substrate is cemented carbide and/or high-speed steel.
The main component of the hard alloy is tungsten carbide (WC), and the tungsten carbide comprises one or more of tungsten cobalt hard alloy (WC+Co), tungsten titanium cobalt hard alloy (WC+TiC+Co), tungsten tantalum cobalt hard alloy (WC+TaC+Co) and tungsten titanium tantalum cobalt hard alloy (WC+TiC+TaC+Co). The high-speed steel (High Speed Steels, HSS) is also called high-speed tool steel, high-speed steel or white steel, is high-carbon high-alloy steel containing alloy elements such as tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), vanadium (V) and the like, has a carbon content of 0.70-1.65%, and the total content of the alloy elements of 10-25%, and can be classified into tungsten high-speed steel, tungsten molybdenum high-speed steel, high-molybdenum high-speed steel, vanadium high-speed steel and cobalt high-speed steel according to the types and the content of the alloy elements.
Further alternatively, the material of the workpiece is high-speed steel.
The high-speed steel has good technological properties, hardness, strength, toughness, wear resistance and the like, can be used for manufacturing complex thin-blade and impact-resistant cutting tools, and can also be used for manufacturing cold working dies, hot working dies, rollers, high-temperature bearings, high-temperature springs and the like.
Optionally, the composition of the nitride coating includes one or more of titanium (Ti), chromium (Cr), aluminum (Al), silicon (Si), carbon (C), and boron (B).
By the synergistic combination of metal elements such as titanium (Ti), chromium (Cr) and aluminum (Al) and nonmetallic elements such as silicon (Si), carbon (C) and boron (B), the nitride coating has higher hardness and better film-based bonding property, and the cutting performance of the nitride coating is obviously improved.
In some embodiments, the nitride coating includes one or more of a TiAlN coating, a TiSiN coating, a CrAlN coating, a CrAlCN coating, a CrAlBN coating, and a craaltisin coating.
Preferably, the nitride coating is a CrAlBN coating.
In some embodiments, the nitriding temperature is 440 ℃ to 480 ℃.
In the plasma nitriding process, nitrogen is taken as a gas with reactivity, so that the nitrogen is easy to react with elements such as Fe, cr, mo and the like in the base material, and meanwhile, the kinetic energy of particles such as nitrogen ions and the like can be converted into the heat energy of the base material through energy exchange, so that the temperature of the base material is increased. Therefore, the nitriding temperature is controlled to be 440-480 ℃, the actual nitriding temperature can be prevented from being increased to be higher than the tempering temperature of the base material, the integral nitriding temperature is ensured to be lower than 500 ℃, and the risk of tempering and softening the base material in the nitriding process is effectively avoided. In addition, the lower nitriding temperature can prevent precipitation of chromium-containing compounds, which deteriorates corrosion resistance of the substrate.
Preferably, the nitriding temperature is 450 ℃.
In some embodiments, the first plasma etching under the condition of arc discharge comprises the following steps:
and (3) turning on an ion source to generate arc discharge, applying a negative bias voltage of 30-100V to the substrate, and then performing first plasma etching on the surface of the substrate for 30-60 min.
The argon and hydrogen are ionized by an arc discharge of an ion source to form a plasma containing argon ions and hydrogen ions, and the oxide and organic contaminants on the surface of the substrate are removed by the hydrogen ions having a reducing property. Because the negative bias applied to the substrate is low, the argon ions and the hydrogen ions are mostly not bounced after contacting the surface of the substrate, but the ion energy is transferred to the substrate, thereby playing a role in heating. The time of the first plasma etching is controlled within the range of 30-60 min, so that the nitriding temperature is reasonably controlled, and the method is suitable for nitriding treatment of base materials of different materials. When the material of the base material is hard alloy, the hydrogen etching time is usually 40-60 min; when the material of the substrate is high-speed steel, the hydrogen etching time is about 30 minutes.
Optionally, the ion source is a hollow cathode gun.
Compared with arc sources such as a column arc source or a rectangular plane large arc source, the hollow cathode gun is used as an auxiliary ion source, a cathode target and a baffle plate for filtering target ions are not required to be additionally arranged, so that the pollution of the target ions to the surface of a workpiece can be avoided, and meanwhile, a large number of electrons are prevented from being blocked by the baffle plate, so that enough electrons can be obtained under lower current and voltage, the treatment time of the steps such as first plasma etching, second plasma etching, plasma nitriding and the like can be shortened, and a better surface treatment effect can be obtained.

Test case
(1) Morphology characterization and elemental analysis: the elemental analysis of the coated tap of example 1 was performed using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) of Zeiss Gemini Sigma and an Oxford spectroscopy probe, and the results are shown in fig. 1-2. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional morphology of the coated tap of example 1, in which a distinct white bright layer was formed at the interface between the coating and the substrate, which was observed in the Inlens mode of SEM, and the thickness of the white bright layer was about 0.5. Mu.m, indicating that the surface of the substrate was significantly modified after plasma nitriding treatment, forming a more fine-grained dense compound layer (typically the nitrided layer was a nitrogen element diffusion layer, and the thickness was greater than that of the white bright layer or compound layer), and laterally reflecting the improvement in hardness and adhesion of the nitriding treatment. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional nitrogen profile of the coated tap of fig. 1, from which it can be seen that the nitrogen signal is concentrated in the interfacial layer of the coating and the substrate, and the surface of the substrate is a nitrogen-rich region.
(2) Metallographic analysis: the coated taps of examples 1 to 3 were respectively prepared into metallographic sections according to ASTM E3-11, and the metallographic sections were observed under 500-fold magnification using a Leica DMI 8C metallographic microscope, and the results are shown in FIGS. 3 to 5.
FIG. 3 is a metallographic section of the coated tap of example 1 with a nitrided layer depth of about 25 μm; FIG. 4 is a metallographic section of the coated tap of example 2 with a nitrided layer depth of about 15 μm; FIG. 5 is a metallographic section of the coated tap of example 3 with a nitrided layer depth of about 25 μm.
(3) Nano hardness, elastic modulus and stress strain curve: according to the instrument indentation test of hardness and material parameters of ISO 14577:2015, the stress-strain curve of the nitride coating of each coating tap was obtained by using an Anton Paar NHT3 nanoindentation instrument, and the nano hardness and elastic modulus of the nitride coating of each coating tap were calculated from the stress-strain curve, and the results are shown in FIG. 6.
FIG. 6 is a graph comparing the nano hardness and elastic modulus of the nitride coating of each coating tap, and it can be seen that the nitride coating is better supported by the nitriding layer after plasma nitriding treatment, so that the nano hardness and elastic modulus of the nitride coating are improved; among them, the nitride coating of example 2 was optimal in nano hardness and elastic modulus, and was greatly improved as compared with comparative example 1 without nitriding layer.
(4) Binding force: the binding force of the nitride coating of each coating tap was measured using an Anton Paar RST3 scratch meter according to ASTM C1624-05, test method for adhesion strength and mechanical failure type of ceramic coating with quantitative single point allergy test, and the results are shown in fig. 7.
The load of complete peeling of the coating is the high critical load LC2, the larger the value of LC2, the higher the film-based bonding force of the coating. As can be seen from fig. 7, LC2 of the nitride of comparative example 1 was 56N, and LC2 of the nitrides of examples 1 to 3 were 72N, 75N and 73N, respectively; the bonding force of the nitride coatings of examples 1-3 is significantly improved, demonstrating that the presence of the nitriding layer can reduce the hardness gap between the substrate and the nitride coating, thereby improving the film-based bonding force of the nitride coating.
(4) Wear profile: after 300 holes were formed in steel No. 45 with the coating tap, the wear profile of the coating tap was observed with a KEYENCE VHX-7000N digital microscope system, and the results are shown in FIGS. 8 to 11.
The coating taps of examples 1-3 and comparative example 1 were three rows of tooth cutting taps, fig. 8 is a graph of wear profile of the first row of tooth flank of each coating tap, fig. 9 is a graph of wear profile of the second row of tooth flank of each coating tap, fig. 10 is a graph of wear profile of the third row of tooth flank of each coating tap, and fig. 11 is a graph of wear profile at the root of each coating tap. As is clear from fig. 8 to 11, the coated tap after plasma nitriding treatment had less wear on the cutting face and the tooth root and the cutting edge was more complete than comparative example 1.
