The corrosion inhibitor is added into the pickling solution to prevent the sample matrix from being corroded by hydrochloric acid, so that the dense high-temperature protective coating on the surface of the sample can be removed, and the influence of pickling on the surface tissue and the appearance of the matrix can be effectively relieved. In addition, in the method for removing the coating, the pickled sample is subjected to sand blasting treatment, and the residual coating is removed again under the mechanical force cutting action of sand blasting, so that the coating on the surface of the sample is removed more completely.
Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of surface treatment, in particular to a solvent for removing a coating, a method for removing the coating and application.
Background
The nickel-based high-temperature alloy has better high-temperature resistance, acid corrosion resistance and stress corrosion resistance, and is widely applied to the fields of ocean, aviation, environmental protection, energy and petrochemical industry.
However, in the actual production process, due to unstable equipment operation or coating damage in the processing process, the MCrAlYX coating on the surface of the alloy substrate is easily uneven, so that the performance design standard of the high-temperature protective coating cannot be met, and the performance safety of the aero-engine is damaged. In view of the processing cost of the superalloy substrate, the surface of the substrate already having the coating needs to be repaired in order to minimize the waste of resources. The work of repairing the coating consists in removing the original coating and in returning as far as possible the surface of the alloy substrate to its original condition, making it suitable for being reapplied with a new coating. However, with the continuous improvement of science and technology, the density of the MCrAlYX coating is also improved, for example, the MCrAlYX coating prepared by adopting electric arc ion plating has a denser structure and smaller surface roughness than the coating prepared by adopting a plasma spraying technology. If the coating is directly corroded by the conventional chemical solution, the coating cannot be completely removed, and the substrate can be damaged and is irreparable. The physical removal method has strong limitation on the structure of the matrix, and a good removal effect can be achieved only on the structure with a regular shape. Therefore, how to completely remove the coating on the surface of the nickel-based superalloy substrate and ensure the integrity of the alloy substrate is one of the problems to be solved in the field.
In view of this, the invention is particularly proposed.
