The thickness range of dry coating is 20-70 μm, and preferable range is 30-50 μm.
This test forms by evaluating some parameter values, that is:
Under high Hertz stress, at the friction torque (Bridgman test) at surface in contact place;
At the bounding force (scratch test, crosscut adhesion test) of suprabasil film
Moisture-resistant medium exposed property;
Water resistant is immersion;
High-pressure anti-wear (Falex adaptive faculty).
Bridgman test can be determined in the special screw rod attended operation process of " senior " web member, the tribology feature of dry film pigment.More accurately, simulate and measure anti-shoulder moment of torsion (torque on shoulder resistance) CSB, also referred to as ToSR (anti-shoulder moment of torsion).In the screw rod attended operation process that the senior web member used in oily industry is special, produce this moment of torsion and be illustrated in Fig. 2.
The curve representation of Fig. 2 as the rotating cycle carried out function be screwed into (or clamping) moment of torsion.Can find out, the torque curve that is screwed into of " senior " web member is divided into four parts.
In first part P1, the external screw-thread of the pin members (or male joint) in the first component of threaded tubular connection does not still have airtight with the internal whorl radial direction of the corresponding parent form screw member (or female joint) in the second component of identical threaded tubular connection.
In second section P2, the geometrical interference of the screw thread in male and parent form screw member produces radial airtight, wherein when screw rod connect continue time, the airtight increase of described radial direction (thus generate little, but increase be screwed into moment of torsion).
In Part III P3, at the corresponding sealing face of the sealing face radial interference parent form screw member of the outer circumference of the end sections of male screw member, produce metal/metal sealing.
In Part IV P4, the circular surface that the front side end surface of male screw member is adjacent with the assembling of parent form screw member is axially adjacent.This first part P4 corresponds to the end segment of assembling (makeup).
Assembling moment of torsion CAB (it corresponds to the end of Part III P3 and the starting end of Part IV P4) is called shoulder moment of torsion.
Assembling moment of torsion CP (it corresponds to the end of Part IV P4) is called plasticizing moment of torsion.Exceed this plasticizing moment of torsion CP, then think that viscous deformation is carried out in male assembling adjacent (end sections of male screw member) and/or parent form assembling adjacent (being positioned at the region after the circular abutment surface of parent form screw member), wherein by plastifying sealing face equally, described viscous deformation can the deteriorated performance with regard to the tightness of the Contact of sealing face.
The difference of plasticizing moment of torsion CP and shoulder moment of torsion CAB value is called anti-shoulder moment of torsion CSB (CSB=CP-CAB).Threaded tubular connection assembling end be placed in best airtight under, this is the optimal mechanical strength (such as, with regard to drawing force, and riving once in a while just in use) of threaded connector and the guarantee of optimal seal performance.
Therefore the obligated definition of the threaded connector for given type of the planner of threaded connector best assembling torque value, for all connections of this kind of web member, described value must lower than plasticizing moment of torsion CP (avoiding the shortcoming plastifying juncture and cause) and higher than shoulder moment of torsion, CAB.The terminal assembling that moment of torsion is less than CAB can not ensure correct relative positioning that is positive and female element, and the effective interference fit therefore between their sealing face.In addition, there is the risk of riving.For the web member of identical type, the virtual value of shoulder moment of torsion CAB fluctuates very large from a web member to another web member, this is because it depends on the diameter of sun and negative thread and sealing face and axially cuts tolerance; Best assembling moment of torsion should be significantly higher than shoulder moment of torsion CAB.
As a result, anti-shoulder torque value CSB is higher, then determine that the border of the assembling moment of torsion optimized is larger, and the anti-operational stresses induced of more threaded connector.
Use the machine of Bridgman type, carry out rub(bing)test.At the article " Plastic flow between Bridgmananvils under high pressures " of the people such as DKuhlmann-Wilsdorf, J.Mater.Res., vol6, no12, particularly depict the machine of this type in 1991 12 months.Sketch plan and the function example of Bridgman machine is illustrated in Fig. 5.
This machine comprises: disk DQ, and it can select rotary actuation under speed; First platform (anvil) ECl, it is preferably cone type, is for good and all fixed on the first surface of disk DQ; Second platform EC2, it is preferably cone type, is for good and all fixed on second relative with the first surface of disk DQ; One EP1 and the 2nd EP2 pressure member, such as piston, it can produce the axle pressure P of selection; 3rd platform EC3, it is preferably cylinder type, is for good and all fixed on a face of the first pressure member EP1; 4th platform EC4, it is preferably cylinder type, is for good and all fixed on a face of the second pressure member EP2.
In order to test lubricant composition, cover two sheet material identical with forming screw member, to form a S1 and the 2nd S2 sample with described composition.Next, between the free surface the first sample S1 being placed in an EC1 and the 3rd EC3 platform, and the second sample S2 is placed between the free surface of the 2nd EC2 and the 4th EC4 platform.Next, rotating-disk DQ under selection speed, adopt simultaneously an EP1 and the 2nd EP2 pressure member each, apply the axle pressure P (such as order of magnitude 1GPa) selected, and measure each sample S1, the assembling moment of torsion that S2 lives through.Axle pressure is selected, speed of rotation and rotation angle, so that the Hertz pressure of simulating on assembling junction surface, end and relative rate in Bridgman test.Use this machine, several different parameter can be fixed to (assembling moment of torsion, speed of rotation), to produce predetermined assembling moment of torsion on sample S1 and S2, therefore detect these samples S1 and S2 and whether closely follow given assembling torque curve, especially before wearing and tearing, whether they can reach whole number of turns, and described whole number of turns at least equals the threshold value selected relative to selected assembling moment of torsion.
In the present case, the contact pressure of selection is 1GPa, and speed of rotation is 1rpm.Sample is formed, machining, then with different dry film formulation coating by the stainless steel containing 13%Cr.
The bounding force that in Fig. 4, illustrated scratch test permission prepares on surface to be determined or surface or binding property.The method suffers the spherical-shaped beads increased under load that deformation of thin membrane is formed by shearing and adopting, the tribology parameters that it also allows mensuration two main, that is frictional coefficient and be equivalent to the critical load occurring film cohesion loss.
Experiment condition uses the spherical indenter that formed by the Inconel718 of diameter 5mm and by the metal sample formed by the phosphoric acid salt of zinc or manganese or the XC48 carbon steel of electrolysis Cu-Sn-Zn settling process.Parameter is: be increased to 310N in the load of 15N/s lower load of advancing the speed from 10N, or is increased to 750N in the load of 25N/s lower load of advancing the speed from 250N.The rate of displacement of bead is the time period (course length be 40mm) of 2mm/s through 20s.Think that when it is in the scope of μ=0.05, measured frictional coefficient is low for the load of 10N, and for the load of 310N, μ=0.09.On steel surface, the load measure μ for 310N is 0.07.It should be noted that and need clearly to list for the load the test of each type coating and operational condition.
Crosscut adhesion test, by when by carrying out cutting drawing lattice to coating, until when described substrate is divided into six classes, evaluates the resistance composition that single or multiple lift coating is separated from substrate.Coating must correspond to 0 grade of iso standard 2409 (2007) to the excellent adhesion of substrate: preferably otch has smooth edge, without the square delamination of stroke lattice.In order to consider environment, after being placed in moist medium (35 DEG C and 90%RH), carry out crosscut adhesion test.Outward appearance does not change, and does not have sand holes, not corrosion, not be full of cracks, does not have fouling to correspond to grade in iso standard 4628, and does not have fusible loss to be the feature of good moisture resistance.
Corrosion test is made up of the neutral salt spray test carried out under the following conditions in climatic chamber: at 35 DEG C, 50g/L25 DEG C of lower density scope is adopted to be 1.029-1.036, at 25 DEG C, pH scope is the salts solution of 6.5-7.2, and reclaims with the mean rate of 1.5ml/h.
After exposure, then the complete sample of the maintenance of not getting rusty must correspond to the ReO level of iso standard 9227.The method provides maintenance to have or the check system of the suitable quality of the metallic substance of unshielded coating (metal on the metal material or organic coating).
Water tolerance test, by according to the DIN standard 50017 of carrying out in climatic chamber, carries out accelerated corrosion test composition to sample.This test comprises circulation every day one, and it passes through condensation connate water steam by under following condition (35 DEG C, lower 8 hours of 90% relative humidity (RH)), then allows sample drying composition.After 7 circulations, test, whether the substrate observing coated protection corrodes.
Excellent resistance must correspond to the grade of iso standard 4628: with zinc (8-20g/m
2the phosphoric acid salt of deposition) or manganese phosphatizing treatment or do not process or the chromium of the ternary Cu-Sn-Zn alloy treatment that by electrolytic deposition middle layer is Ni or carbon steel sheet do not corrode, do not have sand holes, be full of cracks, does not have fouling.
Water immersion test is much harsher than the water tolerance test of DIN standard 50017.It is made up of the water tolerance of testing coating.It derives from ASTM standard D870-09, and this standard relates to industry and motor vehicle paint.
In water, dipping can cause coating degradations.Knowledge about the mode of flooding in coating water resistant can be used for expecting its work-ing life.Can by many factors, the defect especially in coating itself, the pollution of substrate, or surface prepares not enough, causes the fracture in water immersion test or destruction.Therefore, this test can be used for evaluating independent coating or whole coating systems.
This test is by baking oven, and at 40 DEG C, in softening water, the half impregnated sample time period of 168 hours formed.Visual Observations Observations binding property, sand holes, rusty stain, or ventilating pit, show the susceptibility of coating to water.
High-pressure anti-wear (also referred to as Falex test) uses the rotary press head compressed between two V-shape block material described in Fig. 6.Especially use at high speeds Falex test, according to ASTM standard D2670 and ASTM D3233, evaluate wear resistance and the extreme pressure property of lubricant fluid, but it also under the low speed, according to ASTM method D2625, can evaluate solid lubricant.Transformation Falex test, to adapt to the threaded connector used in Oil/gas Well, is that it uses:
Half-contact geometry the shape (to catch lubricant body of winning the third place) closed;
Pressure-the speed range matched with web member;
Carry out the possibility of one direction or alternate test, so that simulate assemble and generic operation of riving.
Test conditions is as described below:
Load=785N;
Cycle rate=the 60rpm of pressure head;
Average metal/metallic contact pressure=560MPa;
Pressure head gliding cable structure=20mm/s.
The object of this test is, when not needing to evaluate on web member, for various film, with regard to wearability, simulating and evaluating weather resistance.This test refers to can the performance of more various coating and the actual tests on web member.ASTM standard D2625-94 is used to define wearing and tearing standard, described standard relates to the carrying capacity measuring solid lubricant film, and to correspond to be the initial state of 1130N.mm or the load for 785N with the order of magnitude, the order of magnitude be 0.15 frictional coefficient compare, increasing rapidly of moment of torsion.Usually, do not consider materials and structures, when applied load declines, observe wearing and tearing.
Applicant have rated the performance of the various films adopting the aq suspension of polyether-ether-ketone to obtain, particularly tribological property, especially to compare they and those performances adopting fluoroethane class thermoset film or the visco-plasticity film with wax-like thermoplastic matrix to observe.
Fluoroethane film is made up of the aqueous dispersion of the vinyl fluoride Vinyl Ether using aliphatic polyisocyanate stiffening agent to solidify.
Wax-like thermoplastic matrix comprises at least one polyethylene wax, and mainly overbasic calcium sulphonate, and wherein friction modified colo(u)rant dispersion is in described overbasic calcium sulphonate, described in patent WO2008/139058.
In the first phase, the aq suspension that applicant have rated polyether-ether-ketone by the various suprabasil binding property being specific surface and preparing process, frictional coefficient, anticorrosive protection and water retting feature:
The XC48 carbon steel (XC48AsM) of former state machining;
Z20C13 stainless steel (13Cr);
There is the XC48 carbon steel of the phosphatizing treatment of zinc (PhZn) or manganese (PhMn);
There is the XC48 carbon steel of the Cu-Sn-Zn settling (TA) of electrolysis.
Table 3,4 and 5 outline according to iso standard 2409, and by scratch test with by crosscut adhesion test, the aq suspension of Vicote F804, Vicote F805 and Vicote F807Blk is by the adhesion results be on sample that different surfaces prepares.
Remind, scratch test characterizes the function as the applied load increased, high performance material, the bounding force of preferred thermoset or thermoplastic material herein.Critical load determines the fracture of interface and the bounding force of therefore material, and when material has resistance and binding property, critical load is higher.The minimum critical load of 310N corresponds to the minimal adhesion pressure that can reach 1.1GPa, lower than described pressure, the increase of abraded product amount occurs in contact, and and then abrasion resistance deficiency.
For the crosscut adhesion test (described test is provided in by torn material, and the binding property damaged after interface is measured) according to iso standard 2409, mark 0 corresponds to excellent binding property, and marks the binding property of the non-constant of 5 definition.

The bond properties of table 5:Vicote F807Blk
The film tested has not enough bounding force, prepares to have nothing to do with the surface of carrying out on the carbon steel with phosphorylation zinc, exception be the carbon steel with phosphorylation manganese.In addition, poly (ether ether ketone) film prepares to have very little consistency to phosphorylation zinc class surface.
In order to explain these results, the event of the roughness that applicant obtains under also been evaluated and not having Phosphorylation status.Adhesion mechanism due to poly (ether ether ketone) film is the physical adhesion by mechanical keying (keying) substantially, and the roughness of substrate is deciding factor.
Meanwhile, recommend by spraying sand milling substrate, so that the roughness Ra (Ra is the arithmetical av of the average line relative to roughness amplitude) of the final film thickness 20% or 25% needed for obtaining, to guarantee the binding property that film is good, namely Ra scope is the minimum value of 4 μm-6 μm.According to iso standard 1997, use rugosimeter, measure roughness.

Table 6: the function prepared as surface, the roughness of sample
Table 6 has been set forth the relatively high roughness obtained by phosphorylation manganese and is provided good bondability.It also shows that very slight polar surfaces prepares, and such as electrolytic deposition ternary Cu-Sn-Zn alloy does not contribute to bonding.
In view of these the first results, applicant determines to measure the erosion resistance of the substrate only with natural low erosion resistance, thus gets rid of the Martensite Stainless Steel (it is greater than 180N to the critical bonding load of poly (ether ether ketone) film) containing 13% chromium.
The thickness range of the film produced by the pneumatic spraying of low temperature is 20-45 μm.According to iso standard 4528-3, measure the corrosion degree within the scope of ReO and Re9.According to standard ISO 4628-2, be determined at the sand holes in 2S2 (lower concentration sand holes and little size) and 5S5 (sand holes of generalization (generalized) and large size) scope and extent of delamination.Result is outlined in table 7 and 8.
Table 7: adopt the erosion resistance that the different surfaces of Vicote F805 prepares
Table 7: adopt the erosion resistance that the different surfaces of Vicote F807Blk prepares
With individual layer poly (ether ether ketone) film coating surface prepare erosion resistance be not enough in broad terms, exception be Cu-Sn-Zn electrolytic deposit, although have low binding property or strong cohesion loss under stress.This result also shows, compared with Vicote F805, the Vicote F807Blk poly (ether ether ketone) film containing inorganic carbon black compounds has erosion resistance relatively preferably, and prepares irrelevant with surface.Adopt electrolytic deposit, obtain absolute best result, only 5 corrosion pits after 1000 hours.Observing and add graphitized carbon black toughener, by serving as sacrificial anode, strengthening corrosion prevention mechanism.
Finally, applicant have rated in the wide load range between 10N to 750N, by scratch test, carries out the frictional coefficient of the film of abrasive wear.Result is outlined in table 9.
Table 9: average friction coefficient, scratch test
The frictional coefficient of poly (ether ether ketone) film is less than 0.135, prepare irrelevant, and for the polyether-ether-ketone containing perfluoroalkyl ethylene oxy class fluorinated polymer, the frictional coefficient under the average contact pressure of 500MPa reaches 0.075 with surface.
First result shows that individual layer poly (ether ether ketone) film lubricates fully and has corrosion resistance, and this not only depends on the composition of film, and depends on the binding property of substrate.
In subordinate phase, then applicant develops the result improving binding property and corrosion resistance.When this can not time, applicant wants alternative sand milling, and this is that the geometrical shape of parts to be coated causes.Especially applicants studied the composition not changing studied commercial film.In fact, adding proportion be greater than 10% adhesion promotor or corrosion inhibitive pigments can increase PCV when PCV (pigment volume concentration (PVC)) exceeds just sufficient adhesive coated efflorescence material (pigment and filler), and this is that the porosity of the film obtained by commercially available aq suspension and cohesion loss cause.
Also other replacement schemes using Vicote704 polyether-ether-ketone powder can be predicted.
Applicants studied the priming paint adopting and there is adhesion promotor type, increase binding property.Direct bonding between material is rare.Because directly bonding there is no and is connected with Van der Waals force uniquely, but only adopt close contact, occur in material (such as, mica or the silicon) situation of the extreme clean unusual light namely in the distance (nanometer) of atom level.Therefore, if surface irregularity, then this usually can not carry out, and on the contrary, it is suitable for the film with low roughness completely.
Therefore, applicant substantially have studied and passes through melting at 400 DEG C, obtains the film that the method for poly (ether ether ketone) film is compatible.
Priming paint can be the jet sediment of the alloy of iron and the zinc sold by Dacral with trade(brand)name Dacroforge Z, with alternative phosphorylation zinc, but by mechanical injection, sand milling/method of sandblast cleaning acquisition priming paint limits it to be had minor diameter and is using in highly short ducted body.
The PAEK that priming paint is preferably filled.Especially including part by weight at organic polyether-ether-ketone tackiness agent is that the solution of the white mica of 25%-50% or the pigments, mica of meroxene is sold by supplier Victrex with trade(brand)name Vicote F817.
The method applying also melting priming paint is identical with upper strata.On the contrary, rate of cooling is required fast, to obtain the less crystalline texture that more insulate, suppresses the initiation of pit and reduces passive (passive) current density of material.
The thickness range of priming paint is 30-40 μm.
Anticorrosive and the bond properties of the priming paint of use two kinds of different cooling powers method evaluations is outlined respectively in table 10 and 11.

The bond properties of table 11:Vicote F817 and frictional coefficient
Vicote F817 priming paint is protected fully and is had binding property, but oilness is not enough.Lubricity is provided by the PAEK layer on top.
Erosion resistance is outlined, binding property and double-deck frictional behaviour in table 12 and 13.Total thickness containing the film of priming paint and upper strata (finish paint) is 40-70 μm.
Table 12: the erosion resistance that different double layer surface prepares
Table 13: bond properties and double-deck frictional coefficient
Prepare irrelevant with surface, for the average contact pressure of 500MPa, frictional coefficient is enough low, especially for the Vicote F807Blk film of wherein μ=0.085, suitable with the frictional coefficient of fluoroethane or epoxide thermoset film, and must allow to obtain the shoulder torque value being less than best assembling moment of torsion 70%.
In a word, the frictional coefficient of poly (ether ether ketone) film, binding property and anticorrosive protection are significantly improved, preferably adopting the polyether-ether-ketone priming paint with pigments, mica filler, and when more specifically strengthening the upper strata of pigment containing the polyether-ether-ketone of at least one fluorinated polymer of viscous deformation under stress and/or carbon black class machinery.
Finally, applicant passes through the tribology behavior of film of Bridgman test evaluation, to determine anti-shoulder torque value.The anti-shoulder torque value obtained for Vicote F807Blk equals 85% of the reference value for the API RP5A3 grease on XC48 carbon steel and Z20C13 stainless steel.But, cause being difficult to preparing sample and the little diameter of sample means that this numerical value can not be regarded as absolute reference value owing to producing the method for film.
The intramolecular interaction of the crystalline texture in polyether-ether-ketone and many potential Van der Waals force types points to the strong cohesion of this material, and high shearing resistance, and anti-shoulder torque value that therefore may be significantly higher.
Meanwhile, applicant passes through the Falex test evaluation wear resistance of film.The test structure matched with web member can be included in individual layer or bilayer a pair vee-block material having and adopt the different surfaces of PEEK film coated to prepare, the XC48 carbon steel pressure head of V-shaped block material and former state machining or the Z20C13 stainless steel pressure head containing 13% chromium.
The test conditions of 785N load is used to correspond to contact pressure and pressure-speed modulus (the PV)=11.2MPa.m/s of average 150MPa, described contact pressure is relatively being screwed into the record in process (100-300MPa) close to being in when shoulder starts at screw thread and load-bearing surface, described pressure-speed modulus is close to employing PV=5MPa.m/s, at load flank (load flank) place, damage the modulus of law at the built-in Vertical Mill of screw thread.
Applicants studied the polyether-ether-ketone that Vicote F805 and F807Blk strengthens.
During Fig. 6 shows and uses on current web member, compared with wax-like thermoplasticity solution, the weather resistance that double-deck Vicote F817/Vicote F807 Blk film is very good, although be regarded as wear-resisting (see document WO2008/032872) with the surface treatment of ternary electrolytic deposit class, but never obtain the wearing and tearing defined according to ASTM standard D2625-94, and under adopting the wax-like thermoplasticity solution conditions of HMS3, after 51 minutes, obtain described wearing and tearing.Relatively low and constant coefficientoffrictionμ=0.08 shows low-down abrasive wear.
In order to measure the wear resistance limit of following film, the Falex test that applicant's working load increases within the scope of 1335N-4200N, have rated weather resistance and the frictional coefficient of film.Gliding cable structure is 10mm/s, and this is contrary with the 20mm/s used before.Result has been shown in Fig. 7.
This result shows, for 350MPa average contact pressure there are not wearing and tearing, and prove the very high wear resistance of film of the present invention.When the pressure was increased, frictional coefficient also reduces and within the scope of 0.056-0.078.
In order to prove at sample, especially have on the sedimental carbon steel of electrolysis Cu-Sn-Zn and use Falex and scratch test, the wear resistance observed in the lab and frictional coefficient, applicant " 29#L80VAM TOP HT web member assembles in 7 to wear height sensitivity.Assembling moment of torsion is 29900N.m.
By the female end portion 2 of electrolytic deposit process carbon steel, with by phosphorylation zinc process male end portion 1 also with the acrylic resin coating that the UV described in patent disclosure WO2006/104251 is curable.Under the rate of cooling being less than 5 DEG C/min, double-deck PEEK film is applied on the tube stub processed.Table 14 outlines assembling result.
" 29#L80VAM TOP HT-CW UD assembles the comparison of result to table 14:7
Gained assembling result proves the wear-resisting property that poly (ether ether ketone) film and the poly (ether ether ketone) film especially strengthened are given prominence to.
Table 15:7 " the result that 29#L80VAM TOP HT assembles
Therefore, the present invention proposes when be applied to steel surface or containing at least 13% chromium steel on the surface time, there is the lubricant film of very interesting wear resistance.It also allow use need not be good binary Cu-Sn or ternary Cu-Sn-Zn class electrolytic deposit.
