| Popis: | This paper analyzes the influence of plasma spray parameters on the microstructure and mechanical properties of NiCrBSi coatings deposited by the atmospheric plasma spray (APS) process. The microstructure and mechanical properties of plasma spray coatings are determined by the interaction of plasma ions with powder particles when the rate and temperature of plasma particles are transferred to powder particles. The interaction effect directly depends on the time the powder particles spend in plasma, and that time is defined by the deposition distance for each type of powder, depending on the grain size, melting temperature and specific mass. In order to obtain homogeneous and dense coatings, three distances (70,120 and 170 mm) from the substrate were used in the research. The coating of the best structural and mechanical characteristics was remelted and fused to the base in order to obtain a better structure. Self - fluxing NiCrBSi alloys are widely used because of the good resistance of boride, carbide and silicide solid phases to wear and corrosion. The morphology of powder particles was examined in the SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), while the microstructure of the layers was assessed using a light microscope. The microstructural analysis of the deposited layers was performed in accordance with the Pratt-Whitney standard. The mechanical properties of the layers were assessed by applying the HV0.3 method for microhardness testing and tensile testing was applied to test bond strength. |
