Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing a protective layer on a thermally stressed component and to a component having such a protective layer.
- the present invention relates to an electrochemical method for producing an oxidation, wear or corrosion protective layer on a component of an internal combustion engine or a component of an exhaust system.
- Such components are used in particular in motor vehicles.
- motor vehicles there is an attempt to reduce the total weight of the vehicle and therefore its individual components in order to increase the efficiency. It therefore makes sense to resort to particularly lightweight materials, in particular so-called light metals such as aluminum, titanium, or their alloys.
- a problem or disadvantage of these materials is the relatively good thermal conductivity, so that the use of these materials, especially for components exposed to higher temperatures, for example, above 300 ° C are not readily possible.
- Due to the system such high temperatures occur in motor vehicles in the internal combustion engine and in the exhaust system.
- an exhaust gas turbocharger may be mentioned, in which temperatures of over 900 ° C may occur. At such temperatures, so-called hot gas corrosion may occur due to the particularly hot gas (the hot gas).
- the surface In order to enable the use of such materials even with thermally stressed components, the surface must be provided with a protective layer, by which in particular the heat transfer coefficient is reduced.
- spraying for example, thermal spraying or
- CONFIRMATION COPY Plasma spraying known.
- a disadvantage of this solution is that in such sprayed coatings, the connection between the sprayed protective layer and the component by mechanical interlocking of the layer material (eg by flakes) on the substrate, ie the surface of the component, or by adhesion processes or diffusion processes comes about. In operation, it can therefore cause problems due to spalling or due to a lack of abrasion resistance.
- the known spray methods are expensive and energy consuming.
- special injection molding tool is necessary, if a spray process is even possible.
- reference is made to a manifold of an exhaust system which for this reason can not be made of any of the aforementioned materials, but is usually provided as a cast iron part or built stainless steel part.
- DE 10 2012 002 284 A1 shows a turbine wheel made of, on or in the surface of which a halide from the group of fluorine, chlorine or bromine is introduced or introduced and on the surface of which an oxidation layer is formed by the so-called halogen effect in the frame a heat treatment is formed.
- the halogens are applied in particular by ion implantation.
- a disadvantage of such methods for producing a protective layer on a thermally stressed component based on the halogen effect is that the oxide layers formed are very thin. Consequently, there is only a limited improvement in the corrosion resistance so that the wear protection is not optimal. Furthermore, owing to the relatively thin oxide layer, no major influence on the electrical or thermal insulation of the component is to be expected.
- the formation of an oxide layer by electrochemical methods is proposed. From DE 10 2012 218 666 AI such a method is known.
- a turbine wheel of a turbocharger made of a titanium alloy is subjected to an electrochemical anodization, which builds up an oxide layer as a protective layer and thus protects the component against further oxidation. Furthermore, the component is thus protected against further environmental influences.
- a method for producing a protective layer on a thermally stressed component, which consists at least partially of a valve metal, wherein the protective layer is produced by an electrochemical process.
- the method according to the invention is characterized in that the electrochemical process is a plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) using an electrolyte and applying an electrical power.
- PEO plasma electrolytic oxidation
- a metal metal is here understood to mean a metal in which the surface can be converted by an electrochemical process into an oxide ceramic layer or an oxide layer, such as titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), magnesium (Mg) or zirconium (Zr ) or their alloys.
- the surface reacts by sparking an electric power in a local plasma and forms an oxide ceramic or layer. or the electrolyte to an oxide ceramic or layer (for example, A1 2 0 3 , spinels, mixed oxides, etc.).
- a PEO process is an anodic oxidation process using a special modulated AC voltage, resulting in a temporary and localized spark discharge due to plasma discharges.
- the PEO process is therefore also referred to as anodic oxidation with spark discharge (ANOF).
- ANOF anodic oxidation with spark discharge
- the resulting from the spark discharge local melting of the surface to be coated should lead to a particularly wear-resistant coating.
- An ANOF process or a PEO process according to the invention is a combined process from the fields of plasma technology and electrochemical mie, can be provided by the surfaces of components which are formed of so-called valve metals, with a protective layer of an oxide ceramic.
- native barrier layer formers such as aluminum, magnesium or titanium come into the selection as valve metals.
- the generation of the protective layer can be carried out in particular in aqueous electrolytes.
- the component to be oxidized is poled anodically and immersed in the electrolyte together with a counter electrode (cathode).
- the component initially forms a purely chemically induced passive layer.
- the growth of this passive layer can be achieved by applying a potential between the anodically poled component and the cathode.
- the oxide layer of the component to be coated will penetrate locally, wherein plasma-chemical solid-state reactions, the spark discharges, are triggered. This process does not take place nationwide but at those points where the thickness of the oxide layer and thus the local electrical resistance is lowest.
- the surface is coated with a very uniform protective layer.
- the applied electric potential is increased so long that the desired layer thickness of the protective layer is reached.
- the inventive method has the advantage that the layer formed according to its ceramic character has a defined thermal conductivity, which is well below the thermal conductivity of the substrate material, for example, aluminum num.
- the protective layer produced by the method according to the invention is therefore constructed as follows: Adjacent to the substrate is a thin, dense and closed layer, the so-called barrier layer, followed by a compact and low-pore layer. This is followed by a porous and less compact layer which, depending on the layer thickness, becomes both more porous and more brittle.
- this layer is openly porous and characterized by small channels which are perpendicular to the surface and protrude from the surface to the adjacent barrier layer in the direction of the substrate.
- the layer has an interconnecting pore network and / or a non-interconnecting pore network, which is characterized by closed inclusions of air or electrolyte.
- the electrolyte is an electrolyte wherein the electrolyte based on phosphoric acid (H3PO4), potassium hydroxide (KOH), water glass (Na 2 SI03), deionized water, or a zirconium compound.
- An electrolyte base here is a substance from a variety of substances, the amount of g / L in addition to water and urotropin is most common in an electrolyte.
- Zirconium sulfate (ZrS0 4 ) or zirconium tungstate (ZrW0 4 ) is particularly suitable as a zirconium-containing compound.
- the electrical power is voltage-controlled, the current is limited or current-controlled, the voltage is limited, or is power-controlled.
- the electrical power is applied at a frequency of 1 Hz to 10 kHz, in particular with a frequency of 1 Hz to 1000 Hz.
- the voltage is applied in a range between 150 and 1500 volts, preferably in a range between 210 and 650 volts, and if the current with a current density in a range between 0.001 and 1000 A / dm 2 , preferably in one Range between 0.5 to 15 A / dm 2 is applied. It is conceivable that the applied current and / or the applied voltage is supermodulated by a higher-frequency current and / or a higher-frequency voltage. Furthermore, it is advantageous if the applied current and / or the applied voltage is regulated in the same way, or has the form of a symmetrical wave, an asymmetric wave, a rectangle or a trapezoid.
- the characteristic shape is provided with a duty cycle and an offset in the range of 0 to 100% and can thus be designed both uni- and bipolar. In particular, the shape of a wave is advantageous.
- a temperature in the range between 0 ° C and 80 ° C is selected as the process temperature for the PEO. More preferably, the temperature is between 18 ° C and 50 ° C.
- the abovementioned process parameters make it possible for a particularly oxide-rich protective layer to grow closed on the component and thus to form a particularly dense and therefore safe protective layer.
- the component can thus be safely and long-term stable protected against external influences, for example against unwanted oxidation.
- component can be produced in mass production with corresponding quality requirements.
- a practicable production speed can be achieved in this way, which makes mass production possible at all.
- the electrolyte is carried out as a dispersion, wherein one or more of the following particles are added to the electrolyte: Al 2 O 3 , T 2 O 2 , SIO 2 , tungsten carbide (WC), ZrO 2 , iron oxide, graphite and / or MoS 2 .
- the electrolyte is applied to an above-mentioned electrolyte base by the addition of said particles.
- the particles may be either globular, ellipsoidal or sparse in the form of flakes or the like.
- the particles can be made of an oxide, a carbide or another material as long as the particles due to the fact that they are incorporated into the protective layer as a foreign body or react chemically, electrochemically or physically together with the substrate or the electrolyte to form a different compound.
- particles of A1 2 0 3, Ti0 2, Si0 2, tungsten carbide (WC), Zr0 2, iron oxide have a significantly reduced thermal conductivity, so that the incorporation of these particles further improves the insulating effect of the protective layer in the protective layer.
- zirconium oxide (Zr0 2 ) has proved to be advantageous.
- the friction value is reduced by the addition of lubricant particles such as graphite, MoS 2 or by other corresponding particles, which are stored embedded in the protective layer.
- the protective layer particles are provided deviating from a Grund substitutagen matrix material of the protective material, which in comparison to the base or matrix material of the protective layer has a relatively high or low thermal conductivity exhibit. It can be particularly preferably provided that both those particles are provided which have a relatively high thermal conductivity compared to the base or matrix material of the protective layer, as well as those which have a relatively low thermal conductivity.
- This aspect of the invention is based, on the one hand, on the recognition that the protective layer produced in the context of the method according to the invention represents an advantageous compromise with regard in particular to thermal insulation and durability, but alternative materials are present which are characterized by an even lower thermal conductivity and thus a lower thermal conductivity further improved thermal insulation.
- the thermal conductivity of the introduced particles in their pure bulk state is not lower than that of the matrix, the thermal conductivity of the composite material of the protective layer formed from both can nevertheless be lower overall, since the introduced particles act as impurities for the propagation of the crystal oscillations (phonons). Act.
- the specification "with relatively low thermal conductivity” is not limited exclusively to an actual material property of the particles, but should also include a heat conductivity reducing effect within the matrix.
- the particles with a relatively high thermal conductivity can advantageously be used to avoid or reduce localized peaks of the wall temperature of the surface provided with the protective layer, as a result of these particles being able to achieve a relatively high local transition of heat energy from, for example, a combustion chamber or an exhaust gas guide as well as possible a larger area of the protective layer distributed becomes.
- the formation of locally high wall temperatures which can have a negative effect on the ignition delay (ie the period between the injection of fuel into the combustion chamber and the ignition of the fuel), can be avoided. This may be sufficient if the particles with relatively high thermal conductivity in only one or more sections, but not in the entire protective layer (based on the area and preferably also the layer thickness) are provided.
- Such a localized provision of particles with relatively high thermal conductivity does not therefore have to be associated with a relevant deterioration in the mean thermal conductivity of the entire protective layer.
- a relatively large ignition delay achieved by avoiding locally high wall temperatures is of importance, in particular for self-igniting internal combustion engines, ie in particular diesel engines, so that the method according to the invention can be used particularly advantageously in the improvement of such a self-igniting internal combustion engine.
- the material used for the particles with relatively high thermal conductivity is, for example, copper, iron, beryllium, aluminum, copper, silver, silicon, molybdenum, tungsten, carbon, beryllium oxide, beryllium nitrite, silicon nitrite and / or silicon carbide, as well as mixtures and / or alloys thereof consideration.
- both relatively low thermal conductivity particles and relatively high thermal conductivity particles are to be provided, their distribution in the protective layer should be such that the mean thermal conductivity of the protective layer, which is locally increased by the relatively high thermal conductivity particles, does not increase to a relevant one Heat transfer to the arranged below the protective layer region of the coated, the combustion chamber and / or the exhaust gas guide limiting- leads the component.
- This can be advantageously achieved in that the particles with relatively high thermal conductivity exclusively in a first, adjacent to the combustion chamber and / or the exhaust gas guide sub-layer of the protective layer and the particles with relatively low thermal conductivity in a second, from the combustion chamber and / or the exhaust system provided by the first sub-layer separated sub-layer.
- the particles with a relatively high thermal conductivity can then ensure the most uniform possible distribution of heat energy transferred into the protective layer within the first sub-layer, while the second sub-layer with the particles of relatively low thermal conductivity acts particularly well thermally insulated and consequently heat transfer from the first sub-layer reduces the area of the component below the protective covering.
- Anodic oxidation under spark discharge makes it possible to arrange particles in the protective layer in a relatively simple manner. This is especially true in the case of an anodic oxidation with spark discharge by means of an alternating voltage, in which either the positive or negative voltage phases can be alternately used to attach the particles contained in the electrolyte to the growing protective layer, while the corresponding other voltage phases for the growing training the protective layer can be used.
- the particle size of the particles can be in the range from 0.001 to 5000 ⁇ m, in particular in a range from 0.1 to 100 ⁇ m. Such particle sizes have proven to be practicable.
- an ultrasonic vibrator can be used for uniform dispersion of the particles.
- the particles can be polarized by the use or addition of surfactants.
- the surfactants may be neutral, positive or in particular cationic see surfactants (eg Esterquads) be such that the polarized particles are drawn, for example, in the cathodic part of a half-wave to the surface and integrated in the anodic part of a half-wave - in the context of the spark discharge - in the surface.
- the object is also achieved by a component with a protective layer, which was produced by the method according to the invention.
- the component consists at least partially of a valve metal or an alloy of a valve metal.
- the component is made of aluminum, an aluminum alloy, magnesium, a magnesium alloy, titanium or a titanium alloy.
- metallic materials such as steel or cast iron, according to the invention can be coated.
- the layer thickness of the protective layer is in a range between 1 ⁇ and 1500 ⁇ .
- the layer thickness is in a range between see 25 ⁇ and 600 ⁇ .
- the component may be a combustion chamber, an engine block, a crankcase, a crankcase interior, a cylinder liner, a cylinder head, an intake manifold, an exhaust manifold, a turbocharger compressor wheel, a turbocharger inner chamber, an exhaust gas recirculation or a cylinder piston.
- a protective layer in the abovementioned components with a method according to the invention at least on the surfaces adjacent to the medium, for example to the hot gas, thermally isolates the system boundary of the thermally loaded component.
- the thermal conductivity at the system boundary is reduced.
- the component is thermally less stressed, on the other hand, the temperature of the medium (eg of the hot gas) can thus be maintained over a longer path and time period.
- the thermal energy stored in the gas is not purely thermally dissipated, but can be recovered by other aggregates or components.
- the protective films produced by the process of the invention have good resistance to wear, oxidation, erosion and corrosion, which is required in a number of components. Furthermore, as the life of the components is improved. This particularly affects the cylinder liner (Tribological wear due to solid state, transition, mixed and / or sliding friction), the compressor wheel of the turbocharger (erosion wear) or the manifold (corrosion resistance).
- a further advantage of the method according to the invention lies in the applicability and ability to selectively and nevertheless homogeneous coating in cavities, channels or complex geometries with undercuts.
- a homogeneous protective layer is formed everywhere on the surface where the electrolyte wets the component surface. So undercuts or depressions or channels can be provided with a protective layer.
- the surface is thus converted by reaction of the electrolyte with the substrate in contrast to galvanic methods. That is, there is no locally dependent on the prevailing field lines material deposition according to the local distribution of the current density instead - which, for example, in complex geometries and undercuts, the use of auxiliary electrodes are necessary would - but local spark gaps are generated wherever the process-related potential is present.
- protective layers produced by PEO have an improved insulating effect due to a poorer thermal conductivity than the anodized surfaces known from the prior art. This is because the prior art surfaces do not have a classical ceramic structure and thus are rather hybrids.
- protective layers produced with PEO do not have a regularly arranged pore pattern, but rather a chaotic pore network, which, in contrast to anodization, can also have interconnecting compounds.

- a suction tube 118 the fresh gas enters into combustion chambers 120 of the internal combustion engine 110, in which this or the oxygen contained therein is burned in a known manner with fuel injected directly into the combustion chambers 120.
