Deposition and Characterization of CoCrAlY Coatings by Multi-Chamber Detonation Sprayer

摘要

In this study, a multi-chamber detonation sprayer (MCDS) was applied for deposition of Co-Cr-Al-Y powder coatings (200-250 μm thick) on nickel base superalloy JS6U (Russia). Powder Co-25Cr-11Al-1Y (d(0.1): 6.6 μm, d(0.5): 62.7 μm, d(0.9): 123,4 μm) was used to deposit of a coatings. The coatings microstructures and phase compositions were characterized using SEM, OM and XRD techniques. Measurement of the microhardness of samples was done with a microhardness tester DM – 8B using a Vickers's indenter with load on of 0.1 N. It was established that MCDS has provided the conditions for formation of a dense layer with porosity 0.05% and microhardness 600±50 HV0.1.
