Definitions

  • the invention relates to methods for coating by spraying a material in a molten state and may find application in various fields of chemistry, energy. State of the art
  • Known methods for applying protective coatings using compositions based on aluminum compounds by methods of thermal spraying Aluminum oxide is most widely used as a powder material for spraying coatings based on aluminum. As a rule, thermal spraying of ceramic coatings is carried out on a previously applied metal sublayer. Powder materials in pure form and / or their compounds - oxides, carbides, nitrides, etc. are used to spray coatings by thermal spraying methods. Often, sprayed powders are composite materials, for example, nickel particles coated with aluminum, tungsten, molybdenum.
  • composition of the metal core and the thin coating layer is dictated by the need to take into account many factors, including a set of mechanical and special properties (adhesion strength of the coating to the substrate, porosity, corrosion resistance, erosion resistance, abrasion and wear resistance), as well as economic factors (production cost) .
  • the powder material In the process of thermal spraying, the powder material, as a rule, undergoes some transformation. This is due to the obligatory stage of the passage of powder materials in a jet of gas plasma (with plasma spraying) or in a stream of combustion products (with flame spraying).
  • the particles of the sprayed material are heated to various temperatures, which causes various kinds of transformation in the particles - from surface heating and melting to complete melting and even transfer of the material into gas
  • the first and third tasks are polar opposites, since to ensure reliable contact with the substrate, it is desirable to completely melt the particles during their passage in the gas stream - this ensures reliable adhesion of the coating to the substrate, but the shape of the particles is lost and the substructure of the coating changes.
  • the process is often carried out in two or more stages. In this case, at the first stage, a special thin intermediate layer (sublayer) is sprayed, which, on the one hand, provides reliable adhesion to the substrate, and on the other hand, provides a good adhesion of the main layer, which is sprayed onto its surface.
  • powders As materials for spraying, powders, powder mixtures and special compositions of powders are used. As such compositions, powders are often used with a coating applied to their surface (the coating can be multilayered), powders with small particles of another material attached to their surface, and powders combined into whole complexes of particles connected to each other in a specific, ordered manner.
  • a known method of forming metal particles with an oxide coating for a plasma spraying process (US6582763, ⁇ r mecanicss SWs f adoptedrrrhafene so composedt Foodd fme metal r diaryt deadlinel Switzerlands).
  • the fundamental difference from the usual surface oxidation process is the fact that a thin layer of oxides of those metals that are not part of the metal core is formed on the surface of metal particles.
  • the process of applying an oxide coating includes the following stages - mixing a metal powder with an oxide, then feeding the mixture of powders into the thermal plasma stream to obtain a vapor phase; and finally, quenching (hardening) to fix the oxide layer on the surface of the particles.
  • JP2005068508 Metal rover coater with Iporpur superfme rapplic apd its product method.
  • the coating which contains particles of aluminum oxide, aluminum hydroxide or their complex compounds, boron or phosphorus, in the form of a gel is deposited on the surface of metal powder particles.
  • the final formation of the inorganic coating occurs during the heat treatment of the coated powder.
  • a known method for the production of powder with a titanium coating (RU2178341, Titapium roverdrodustiop rocess), in which during the joint grinding of a metal powder with a titanium sponge, a thin layer of titanium is applied to the surface of the powder.
  • Thermal spraying methods are usually used to obtain coatings that provide mechanical (increase in surface hardness, decrease in friction coefficient and increase in wear resistance), physical and chemical (increase corrosion resistance in water and gas, gas erosion, increase radiation resistance) and special (in particular catalytic) properties.
  • the catalytic activity of a material is determined by a number of factors, both chemical and technological.
  • the technological factors that determine the degree of catalytic activity is, in particular, the degree of development of the catalytic surface (Farrauto, RJ., Vartholom, CH, 1997. Pharmaceuticals Industrial Technologies ⁇ r Canalss Moscows ⁇ , 78-86: 122-134).
  • This term describes a parameter characterizing the total surface area of one gram of coating. In the case of conventional coatings, this parameter is 0.01-0.1 m 2 / g, while in the case of special, catalytic coatings, it reaches 100-400 m 2 / g.
  • Such a catalytic surface allows the placement of a proportionally larger volume of catalytic material.
  • the increase in the specific free surface, ceteris paribus is proportional to the increase in the catalytic activity of the coating.
  • a specific problem that must be solved by thermal spraying of catalytic coatings is the need to ensure a high specific surface.
  • One of the solutions to this problem may be to increase the porosity of the coating during the spraying process. High porosity of the coating for conventional coatings is undesirable, as it causes deterioration adhesion to the substrate, as well as a decrease in the physicochemical characteristics of the coating.
  • the sprayed powder materials are a mixture of powders, including catalytic materials (metal oxides), aluminum hydroxides, in particular gibbsite and boehmite, which ensure the development of the free surface of the coating during and / or after spraying and a metal binder, usually aluminum which provides adhesion of the sprayed particles to each other and to the substrate.
  • catalytic materials metal oxides
  • aluminum hydroxides in particular gibbsite and boehmite
  • a method for forming a catalytic coating is proposed (RU2126717C1, A method for manufacturing a catalytic unit for neutralizing gas emissions), in which a powder mixture consisting of aluminum - 0.5-5% and aluminum hydroxide is applied to the surface of a metal strip with high electrical resistance by plasma spraying with natural accompanying impurities.
  • a plasma-forming gas air or another oxygen-containing mixture is used.
  • spraying it is proposed to maintain regulated energy regimes that ensure, on the one hand, the melting of aluminum particles, but excluding the thermal decomposition of aluminum hydroxide.
  • the specified method allows you to get on the surface of a metal tape carrier thin composite layer with high adhesive strength.
  • aluminum hydroxide (gibbsite) dispersion less than 10 microns.
  • aluminum hydroxide (gibbsite) does not require chemical treatment, but is used with natural (technological) impurities - sodium, potassium, calcium, silicon, etc. - which are in this case thermostabilizing elements and provide an additional increase in thermal stability
  • a known method of manufacturing a composite coating (RU97101513A, a Method of manufacturing a composite coating), in which a porous coating comprising a metal oxide and a metal binder is applied to the initial substrate by plasma spraying.
  • plasma spraying use a mixture of powders, including aluminum oxide and / or titanium, aluminum as a metal binder and additionally aluminum hydroxide and / or titanium.
  • the value of the specific free surface after decomposition of the sprayed layer is 50-70 m 2 / g of coating.
  • a known method of applying a porous coating to metal and ceramic materials by plasma spraying (US6254938B1, Sprauipg metod for arrluipg and porous coatigot substitute).
  • a powder mixture which includes aluminum hydroxide, aluminum oxide and / or titanium, glass powder, as a component forming a microstructure, aluminum metal powder and / or titanium as a metal binder.
  • various components of the sprayed powder are introduced into different areas of the plasma flow. So, for example, aluminum hydroxide is introduced into the colder zone of the stream, and metals - aluminum and titanium - into the hotter one.
  • the resulting coating according to the authors, is characterized by high adhesion to the metal substrate and high porosity.
  • the intermediate layer must, firstly, have a thermal expansion coefficient (ctr) as close to the ctp of the substrate, and, secondly, be as integrated as possible into the structure substrates, i.e. atoms of the coating material should form metallic bonds with atoms of the substrate material. If the first condition can be quite easily satisfied by selecting the material of the intermediate layer with a c.t.p. as close as possible to the c.t.
  • the relative free surface in this case should be at least 10 m 2 / g (this means that one gram of the coating must have a total surface of 10 square meters), which should provide high adhesion of the sprayed coating.
  • recalculation of the maximum open porosity established for the intermediate layers sprayed in the usual way by the value of the relative free surface shows that the latter in this case does not exceed a value of the order of 1-2 m 2 / g, which is clearly not enough.
  • the sprayed layer must be dense (on the side adjacent to the substrate), which should provide high adhesion to the substrate, and, therefore, high thermomechanical characteristics of the coating, and, at the same time , the sprayed layer must be highly porous (on its surface) to ensure special, including catalytic, properties. This contradiction is resolved due to the specific chemical composition of the sprayed powders and the original technology of their spraying.
  • metal aluminum performs, firstly, the role of the metal sublayer, providing high adhesion strength of the sprayed layer to the substrate, and, secondly, the role of the metal bond to fix the particles of the porous surface of the sprayed layer.
  • Silicate glass powder provides the development of the macrostructure of the sprayed coating.
  • a composite layer consisting of aluminum, melted in a plasma jet and forming a plastic sublayer on the surface of the substrate. Glass particles partially melted from the surface are embedded in this layer, which ensures their strong adhesion to the layer. And finally, particles of aluminum hydroxide, which did not decompose during passage through the plasma jet, were introduced into the surface of this layer.
  • the composite coating obtained in this way is not the final product, because, firstly, it is not porous, and secondly, its phase composition does not meet the requirements for special coatings (for example, for using the coating in catalysis gamma and theta modifications of aluminum oxides should be predominantly on its surface) and, thirdly, the residual thermal stresses (the result of the plasma spraying process itself) are quite high.
  • Obtaining the necessary physical and chemical properties of the sprayed composite coating is achieved by conducting heat treatment in an oxidizing environment, mainly in air. During the decomposition of aluminum hydroxide in the temperature range 480-660 ° C during the heat treatment, the formation of aluminum oxide with a highly developed microporous surface occurs in accordance with reaction (1).
  • the process of heat treatment of the sprayed composite layer in an oxidizing medium provides, according to the authors, the preparation of the necessary chemical and phase composition on the surface with the simultaneous formation of a specific macro- and microstructure of the surface layer.
  • the method of thermal spraying described in detail above for the preparation of catalytic coatings has a number of significant drawbacks, the main of which is the problem of preventing thermal decomposition of aluminum hydroxide during its passage in a plasma jet.
  • any change in the mass of particles, air pressure in the plasmatron, or a small change in the electrical parameters of the source during the deposition process will lead to a change in the trajectory of the particles, and, therefore, to decomposition of particles in the process of spraying, or to their underheating - in this case, they simply will not adhere to the substrate.
  • a precursor is usually understood as a substance that contains the necessary catalytic materials and, after its application to the surface of the carrier, can be converted, after a series of procedures, into a catalyst (Farutauto, RJ., Pharmaceutical, C.H., 1997, Industrial Chemical Industrial Chemicals). As such procedures, heating, irradiation or other activation of the surface of the catalytic coating can be used.
  • complex powder materials as precursors can also solve a number of specific problems associated with the deposition of catalysts.
  • a spraying option using a mixed composition consisting of aluminum metal, aluminum oxide and hydroxides The proposed process allows to obtain a catalytic coating characterized by a relatively high free surface (50-70 m 2 / g) and a statistically uniform distribution of catalyst particles.
  • the optimal operation of the catalyst is possible only when the catalytic particles are on the surface of a special catalytic carrier, the role of which is played by gamma and theta alumina, as well as aluminum hydroxide in the form of gibbsite and / or boehmite.
  • the catalytic activity of the catalyst is higher, the higher the degree of development surface.
  • the thermal spraying process is constructed in such a way that aluminum hydroxide is applied to the surface of the product in an undecomposed or partially decomposed state. Subsequent heat treatment leads to thermal decomposition of the hydroxide and a strong increase in the free surface.
  • an increase in the free surface does not lead to migration and redistribution of catalyst particles on the surface of the catalytic carrier (see Fig. L).
  • the catalyst particle is rigidly fixed in the sprayed layer after thermal spraying and its position does not change during the decomposition of aluminum hydroxide. Therefore, an increase in the free surface is not accompanied by a proportional increase in catalytic activity.
  • the formation of the precursor occurs upon impregnation of boehmite, which has a certain crystallite size, namely, in the range of 4-30 nanometers.
  • solutions for coating formation aqueous solutions of salts and organic solvents are used.

  • hydrotalcites and aluminum hydroxides The most important fundamental difference between hydrotalcites and aluminum hydroxides is their ability to replace aluminum and magnesium cations with trivalent and, accordingly, divalent cations of most metals, the oxides of which are widely used in catalysis, provided that their ionic radius is not much different from the ionic radii of aluminum and magnesium.
