Definitions

  • the present invention relates to wear and corrosion resistant coatings and to a method for producing such coatings. More particularly, the invention relates to a new family of W-Co-Cr-C coatings having improved strength and wear resistance.
  • Coatings of W-Co-Cr-C are used in those applications where both superior wear and corrosion resistance are required.
  • a typical composition for these coatings comprises about 8 to 10 weight percent cobalt, about 3 to 4 weight percent chromium, about 4.5 to 5.5 weight percent carbon and the balance tungsten.
  • These coatings can be successfully applied to various substrates, e.g., iron base alloy substrates, using known thermal spray techniques. Such techniques include, for example, detonation gun (D-Gun) deposition as disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 2,714,563 and 2,950,867, plasma arc spray as disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 2,858,411 and 3,016,447, and other so-called "high velocity" plasma or "hypersonic" combustion spray processes.
  • D-Gun detonation gun
  • coatings of W-Co-Cr-C derive their wear resistance from the presence of complex carbides of W, Co, and Cr.
  • Corrosion resistance is derived, on the other hand, from the presence of chromium.
  • the chromium content is actually a compromise between that which is ordinarily required for corrosion resistance and that which interferes with or diminishes the wear and mechanical properties of the coating.
  • a coating composition applied to a substrate by a thermal spray process in accordance with the present invention consists of from 4.0 to 10.5 weight percent cobalt, from 5.0 to 11.5 weight percent chromium, from 3.0 to 5.0 weight percent carbon and the balance tungsten and incidential impurities.
  • a method for coating a substrate wherein a powdered coating material is suspended within a high temperature, high velocity gaseous stream and heated to a temperature at least close to the melting point thereof, said gaseous stream being directed against a surface of said substrate to deposit said powdered coating material and form a coating thereon, in conformity with the present invention is characterized in that, a powdered coating material having a composition such that the coating deposited onto said substrate consists of from 4.0 to 10.5 weight percent cobalt, from 5.0 to 11.5 weight percent chromium, from 3.0 to 5.0 weight percent carbon and the balance tungsten and incidential impurities, is used.
  • a powdered coating composition for applying a high strength, wear and corrosion resistant coating onto a substrate by a thermal spray process in accordance with the present invention consists of from 8.0 to 11.0 weight percent cobalt, from 8.0 to 11.0 weight percent chromium, from 4.0 to 5.5 weight percent carbon and the balance tungsten and incidential impurities.
  • the coatings of the present invention can be applied to a substrate using any conventional thermal spray technique.
  • the preferred method of applying the coating is by detonation gun (D-Gun) deposition.
  • D-Gun detonation gun
  • a typical D-Gun consists essentially of a water-cooled barrel which is several 30 cm (feet) long with an inside diameter of about 25 mm (1 inch).
  • a mixture of oxygen and a fuel gas, e.g., acetylene, in a specified ratio (usually about 1:1) is fed into the barrel along with a charge of powder to be coated.
  • the gas is then ignited and the detonation wave accelerates the powder to about 730 m/s (2400 ft./sec.) while heating the powder close to or above its melting point.
  • a pulse of nitrogen purges the barrel and readies the system for the next detonation. The cycle is then repeated many times a second.
  • the D-Gun deposits a circle of coating on the substrate with each detonation.
  • the circles of coating are about 25 mm (1 inch) in diameter and a few microns (ten thousandths of an inch) thick.
  • Each circle of coating is composed of many overlapping microscopic splats corresponding to the individual powder particles. The overlapping splats interlock and mechanically bond to each other and the substrate without substantially alloying at the interface thereof.
  • the placement of the circles in the coating deposition are closely controlled to build-up a smooth coating of uniform thickness and to minimize substrate heating and residual stresses in the applied coating.
  • the powder used in producing the coating of the present invention is chosen to achieve the particular coating composition desired using a given set of deposition parameters.
  • the oxygen-fuel gas mixture ratio employed in the D-Gun process is maintained at about 1.0. It is also possible to use other operating conditions with a D-Gun and still obtain the desired coating composition if the powder composition is adjusted accordingly.
  • other powder compositions may be used with other thermal spray coating devices to compensate for changes in composition during deposition and obtain the desired coating composition of the present invention.
  • the powders used in the D-Gun for applying a coating according to the present invention are preferably cast and crushed powders. However, other forms of powder such as sintered powders can also be used. Generally, the size of the powders should be about 0.044 mm or smaller (-325 mesh). Powders produced by other methods of manufacture and with other size distributions may be used according to the present invention with other thermal spray disposition techniques if they are more suited to a particular spray device and/or size.
  • a typical powder composition for depositing a coating according to the present invention consists of from 8.0 to 11.0 weight percent cobalt, from 8.0 to 11.0 weight percent chromium, from 4.0 to 5.5 weight percent carbon and the balance tungsten and incidental impurities. Some of the carbon may be uncombined carbon, e.g., up to about 1.0 weight percent, which may be lost in the deposition process.
  • the feed rate of both oxygen and fuel gas e.g., acetylene
  • the coating of the present invention can be applied to a substrate by plasma arc spray or other thermal spray techniques.
  • plasma arc spray process an electric arc is established between a non-consumble electrode and a second non-consumable electrode spaced therefrom.
  • a gas is passed in contact with the non-consumable electrode such that it contains the arc.
  • the arc-containing gas is constricted by a nozzle and results in a high thermal content effluent.
  • Powdered coating material is injected into the high thermal content effluent nozzle and is depositied onto the surface to be coated.
  • This process which is described in U.S. Patent No. 2,858,411, supra, produces a deposited coating which is sound, dense and adherent to the substrate.
  • the applied coating also consists of irregularly shaped mciroscopic splats or leaves which are interlocked and mechanically bonded to one another and also to the substrate.
  • powders fed to the arc torch may have essentially the same composition as the applied coating itself.
  • some change in composition is to be expected and, in such cases, the powder composition may be adjusted accordingly to achieve the coating composition of the present invention.
  • the coatings of the present invention may be applied to almost any type of substrate, e.g., metallic substrates such as iron or steel or non- metallic substrates such as carbon, graphite, or polymers, for instance.
  • substrate material used in various environments and admirably suited as substrates for the coating of the present invention include, for example, steel, stainless steel, iron base alloys, nickel, nickel base alloys, cobalt, cobalt base alloys, chromium, chromium base alloys, titanium, titanium base alloys, aluminum, aluminum base alloys, copper, copper base alloys, refractory metals and refractory-metal base alloys.
  • the composition of the coatings of the present invention may vary within the ranges indicated above, the preferred coating composition consists of from 5.5 to 7.5 weight percent cobalt, from 5.5 to 7.5 weight percent chromium, from 3.0 to 5.0 weight percent carbon and the balance tungsten and incidental impurities. It is preferred in the practice of the present invention that the ratio of cobalt to chromium be about 1:1.
  • the microstructure of the coatings of the present invention are very complex and not completely understood.
  • the major and some of the minor phases of both the powder and coating composition have been identified using essentially three techniques: (1) X-ray diffraction, (2) metallography, and (3) scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
  • SEM scanning electron microscopy
  • Coatings of the present invention exhibit both improved strength and wear resistance as compared to conventional coating of the prior art. Because of their improved strength, they are ideally suited for use on gate valves employed in well service equipment for handling highly corrosive fluids (e.g., solutions containing chlorides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, vanadium salts, etc.) under moderately high hydraulic pressures, typically about 69,000 kPa (10,000 psi), and temperatures above 93°C (200°F). In the past, conventional coatings failed under these conditions mostly due to their relatively low tensile strength.
  • highly corrosive fluids e.g., solutions containing chlorides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, vanadium salts, etc.
  • the coating is stressed or loaded from within itself. If the internal specific load in the coating exceeds the fracture stress of the coating, the coating will fail outwardly from within the coating.
  • coatings containing tungsten carbide, cobalt or nickel, and chromium have shown a low resistance to the type of failures described above and a low strength when loaded hydraulically in an outward direction from the interface. However, these coatings have shown a good resistance to wear and corrosion. On the other hand, coatings containing tungsten carbide and cobalt but devoid of any chromium have shown a good resistance to failure and a high strength when subjected to high internal pressures. Because of their lack of chromium, however, these coatings provide little or no resistance to corrosion. The addition of chromium to the coating may increase its resistance to corrosion but at the cost of lowering the strength of the coating to the point where the coating will fail when subjected to high internal pressures.
  • Coatings of the present invention represent a significant and unexpected improvement over the prior art.
  • the coatings incorporate not only enough chromium to provide corrosion resistance but also enough cobalt, tungsten and carbon in appropriate relative proportions to provide a 50 percent improvement in toughness and strength over that of prior coatings while at the same time significantly increasing wear resistance. Although the exact reasons for improved strength and wear resistance are not clearly understood, it is believed that they result from a change in chemistry and accompanying phase changes in the coating.
  • the present invention offers the advantage in that the coatings can be applied to a substrate at a faster deposition rate than heretofore possible without cracking or spalling. This is, of course, made possible by the fact that the coating of the present invention possesses sufficient strength to withstand the build-up of high residual stresses that result when the coating is deposited at high rates. The use of high deposition rates significantly reduces the cost of producing a coating since less equipment and operator time is required.
  • the coating exhibits a smooth "as-deposited" surface which requires less grinding to finish the coating as compared to the coatings of the prior art.
  • coatings of the present invention require less coating material to be deposited onto the substrate in order to achieve the same finish coating surface and thickness as that of prior coatings without, however, lowering the coatings requirements of resistance to abrasion and corrosion.
  • the coating process is far more efficient and less costly than that of the prior art.
  • Specimens of AISI 1018 steel were cleaned and prepared for coating as follows. The surface on one side of each specimen was ground smooth and parallel to the opposite side. The surface was then grit blasted with 0.25 mm (60 mesh) A1 2 0 3 to a surface roughness of about 3 pm (120 micro-inch) RMS. Three specimens were set aside and prepared for hydraulic pressure test as follows. On the side to be coated, eight small holes, 0.51 mm (0.020 inch) in diameter, were drilled in the specimen substrate perpendicular to its surface to a depth of a few mm (few tenths of an inch). The holes were then enlarged so as to .accommodate leak tight couplings.
  • a chemical analysis of the coating showed the following composition: 8 weight percent Co, 3.2 weight percent Cr, 4.7 weight percent C and the balance W.
  • the chemical analysis was carried out principally by two methods. Carbon was analyzed by a combustion analysis technique using a Leco Carbon Analyzer and volumetric determination of gaseous output. Cobalt and chromium were analyzed by first fusing the sample in Na 2 0 2 and separating the cobalt and chromium, then determining the amount of each potentiometrically.
  • the mechanical strength of the coating was determined by an hydraulic pressure test as follows. After coating the specimen prepared for this test in the manner described above, the piano wires were carefully removed providing cavities directly under the coating. By means of the couplings, the cavities were then connected to an hydraulic pressure system and the cavities filled with an hydraulic fluid. The fluid was then pressurized, loading the coating from the interface outward until failure of the coating occurred. Eight measurements were made on each coating and the average value defined as the failure pressure. The failure pressure was taken to be a measure of the coating's mechanical strength for the specific coating thickness. The failure pressures can then be used to rank different coatings of basically the same thickness.
  • the failure pressures for the three coatings were 37,200 kPa (5,400 psi) at a thickness of 0.112 mm (0.0044 inch), 71,000 kPa (10,300 psi) at a thickness of 0.211 mm (0.0083 inch) and 91,000 kPa (13,200 psi) at 0.267 mm (0.0105 inch).
  • Linear regression predicts a failure pressure of 57,200 kPa (8,300 psi) at 0.170 mm (0.0067 inch) thick coating.
  • Abrasive wear properties of the applied coating were also determined using the standard dry sand/rubber wheel abrasion test described in ASTM Standard G65-80, Procedure A.
  • ASTM Standard G65-80, Procedure A the coated specimens werer loaded by means of a lever arm against a rotating wheel with a chlorobutyl rubber rim around the wheel.
  • An abrasive i.e., (0.21 mm to 0.30 m) 50-70 mesh Ottawa Silica Sand
  • the wheel was rotated in the direction of the abrasive flow.
  • the test specimen was weighed before and after the test and its weight loss was recorded. Because of the wide differences in the densities of different materials tested, the mass loss is normally converted to volume loss to evaluate the relative ranking of materials.
  • the average volume loss for the coated specimens tested (conventional W-Co-Cr-C coating) was 1.7 mm 3 per 1,000 revolutions.
  • the hardness of the coatings was also measured by standard methods. The average hardness was found to be 1100 DPH 300 .

  • Example II A chemical analysis of the coating was performed using the same methods described in Example I. The anlysis showed the following composition: 16.5 weight percent Co, 4.9 weight percent Cr, 3.7 weight percent C and the balance W.
  • the mechanical strength of the coating was determined using the same hydraulic pressure test.

  • the wear resistance of this particular coating is approximately equivalent to the coatings of the prior art as represented by Example I.
