Description
"Procédé de réalisation de couche d'oxyde protectrice."Process for producing a protective oxide layer.
L'invention a pour objet un procédé pour réaliser des couches d'oxyde protectrices sur un objet méral- lique, dans lequel on soumet l'objet, après un traitement préliminaire, à un processus d'oxydation à température élevée, comme décrit dans le brevet principal. The subject of the invention is a process for producing protective oxide layers on a metallic object, in which the object is subjected, after a preliminary treatment, to an oxidation process at high temperature, as described in the main patent.
On connait la protection apportée par tes couches d'oxydes sur les objets métalliques contre des oxyde tion ou des corrosions ultérieures. D'autre part, les couches d'oxydes naturelles ou constituées par des procédés connus préviennent, dans une certaine mesure, le soudage par friction entre des surfaces de contact, quand la charge n'est pas forte ou qu'il existe un film de lubrifiant. Il n'existe aucune fiabilite sur la durée de la résistance dans le cas d'une surface de contact sèche sous forte contrainte, par exemple des vibrations haute fréquence. Sous de telles conditions apparait généralement rapidement le soudage par friction et il en résulte que l'on ne peut plus débloquer la liaison. We know the protection provided by your layers of oxides on metal objects against oxidation tion or subsequent corrosion. On the other hand, the layers of natural oxides or formed by known methods prevent, to a certain extent, friction welding between contact surfaces, when the load is not strong or when there is a film of lubricant. There is no reliability over the duration of the resistance in the case of a dry contact surface under high stress, for example high frequency vibrations. Under such conditions, friction welding generally appears quickly, and as a result, the connection can no longer be released.
Sont particulièrement concernées les liaisons entre éléments en titane ou alliage à base de titane soumises aux contraintes mentionnées ci-dessus dans les turbines et les compresseurs. Particularly concerned are the connections between titanium or titanium-based alloy elements subject to the constraints mentioned above in turbines and compressors.
Une méthode connue, pour protéger les objets en titane contre le soudage par friction , consiste en ce que 'on recouvre la surface de ces objets avec ue couche d'oxyde. A known method for protecting titanium objects against friction welding consists in covering the surface of these objects with an oxide layer.
Suivant le procédé connu, la couche en oxyde de titane (TiO2) est obtenue en chauffant l'objet dans une atmosphère d'oxygène pur,
Un tel procédé ne permet néanmoins pas d'ase surer une protection des objets dans le cas de contraintes extremes, notamment sous des températures élevées, comme il arrive dans les compresseurs et les turbines.According to the known process, the titanium oxide (TiO2) layer is obtained by heating the object in an atmosphere of pure oxygen,
Such a method does not, however, allow safe protection of objects in the case of extreme stresses, in particular under high temperatures, as happens in compressors and turbines.
Les couches obtenues par le procédé connu ne présentent aucune stabilité mécanique suffisante et donc auxune résistance satisfaisante contre le souda@@ par friction. La couche de protection se brise dès l'apparition de faibles sollicitations, s'en va par endroits, et est donc en relativement peu de temps complètement détruite et hors d'usage. The layers obtained by the known method have no sufficient mechanical stability and therefore have a satisfactory resistance against soda @ @ by friction. The protective layer breaks when low stresses appear, goes away in places, and is therefore in a relatively short time completely destroyed and out of use.
En application de l'invention selon la demand@ do brevet princlpal, l'amélioration apportée a procédé connu décrit ci-dessus consiste à permettre à la couche d'oxyde d'assurer une protection pleinement opérante contre la soudure par friction dans le cas de liaisons de pièces de machines en alliage à base de titane. In application of the invention according to the main patent demand @ do, the improvement made to the known process described above consists in allowing the oxide layer to provide fully effective protection against friction welding in the case of connections of titanium-based alloy machine parts.
La solution, selon la demande de brevet principal, consiste , pour l'application du procédé à des objets en acier allié au chrome et au nickel, en ce que l'on soumet l'objet à un traitement préalable mécanique et/ou chimique et en ce que l'on effectue le processus d'oxydation qui suit en utilisant un potentiel d'oxydation plus faible et une température comprise entre 500 et 9000C environ.La présente invention utilise ce meme procédé, décrit selon la revendication 1, dans une autre forme d'application
en effet, il est également possible d'effectuer une oxydation sélective au moyen d'un potentiel d'oxyde tion plus faible, grâce auquel par le choix d'une pression partielle adéquate de l'agent d'oxydation, on peut obtenir que quelques éléments seulement, composant la matiè@e de l'obje@, et de préférence un seul élément, soient oxydés.Il en résul que pour un métal qui peut former des oxydes différents cor respondant à des niveaux différents de valence, on peut velon- tairement ne former que les oxydes de valence faible Dans e cas présent il s'agit du Ti2O3, qui est isotope du A12OS dont les propriétés mécaniques interessantes sont bien connues et qui l'ont amené à etre largement utilisé sous Ja for- me de couche de protection contre l'usure,au moye du procé- dé C.V.D.The solution, according to the main patent application, consists, for the application of the process to steel objects alloyed with chromium and nickel, in that the object is subjected to a mechanical and / or chemical prior treatment and in that the following oxidation process is carried out using a lower oxidation potential and a temperature of between 500 and 9000C approximately. The present invention uses this same process, described according to claim 1, in another form of application
indeed, it is also possible to carry out a selective oxidation by means of a lower oxidation potential, thanks to which by the choice of an adequate partial pressure of the oxidizing agent, it is possible to obtain only a few only elements, composing the material of the object, and preferably only one element, are oxidized. It follows that for a metal which can form different oxides corresponding to different levels of valence, one can velon- taire only form oxides of low valence In this case it is Ti2O3, which is isotope of A12OS whose interesting mechanical properties are well known and which have led it to be widely used in Ja form of layer wear protection, using CVD process
Un avantage remarquable du- procédé selon l'in- vention réside donc en ce que des couches peuvent être obtenues qui présentent un mélange homogène de Tri 203 et Al2O3 et égaiement de tTi,Al)03. Ce mélange présente d'une part une haute résistance à l'usure, et autre part un faible coefficient de frottement. En conséquence, et grâce au fait que le procédé selon l'invention permet d'obtenir des couches d'épaisseur régulière, ainsi qu'une stabilité mécanique ameliorée par rap- port à l'état de la technique, ces couches constituent une bonne protection contre la soudure par friction, égalemen dans les hautes températures. A remarkable advantage of the process according to the invention therefore lies in the fact that layers can be obtained which have a homogeneous mixture of Tri 203 and Al2O3 and also of tTi, Al) 03. This mixture has on the one hand a high resistance to wear, and on the other hand a low coefficient of friction. Consequently, and thanks to the fact that the method according to the invention makes it possible to obtain layers of regular thickness, as well as improved mechanical stability compared with the state of the art, these layers constitute good protection. against friction welding, also in high temperatures.
La qualité de la couche de protection peut être encore davantage améliorée si l'on soumet l'objet à un traitement préalable mécanique, comme par exemple un formage à froid. Ce traitement mécanique, qui peut être un meulage, un pierrage, un laminage, ou un grenaillage, suivi éventuellement d'un polissage, permet d'obtenir une amélioration de la finesse du grain en surface de l'objet en fonction du traite- ment thermique postérieur, et par là une augmentation de la mobilité des atomes de l'alliage, mobilité nécessaire pour que les composés minoritaires de 1'aluminium s'insèrent dans 1'o- xyde. I1 en résulte une adhérence améliorée.Cette bonne sta- bilité mécanique se fonde également sur la formation mentionnée ci-dessus de (Ti,Al)203 grâce au potentiel d'oxydation faible, formation lente mais dense à cause de la faible vitesse de diffusion dans le réseau cristallin. The quality of the protective layer can be further improved if the object is subjected to a mechanical preliminary treatment, such as for example cold forming. This mechanical treatment, which can be grinding, honing, rolling, or shot peening, possibly followed by polishing, makes it possible to obtain an improvement in the fineness of the grain on the surface of the object as a function of the treatment. posterior thermal, and thereby an increase in the mobility of the atoms of the alloy, mobility necessary for the minority aluminum compounds to be inserted into the oxide. This results in improved adhesion. This good mechanical stability is also based on the above-mentioned formation of (Ti, Al) 203 thanks to the low oxidation potential, slow but dense formation due to the low diffusion rate. in the crystal lattice.
Le C02 peut être utilisé comme agent d'oxyda tion pendant le processus d'@xydation. On peut alors utiliser le mélange gazeux tampon 2C02= 2CO+O2 poux abaisser la pression partielle en oxygène. CO2 can be used as an oxidizing agent during the oxidation process. The buffer gas mixture 2C02 = 2CO + O2 can then be used to lower the partial oxygen pressure.
Un agent préférentiel d'oxydation est la vapeur d'eau. Dans le cas de la vapeur d'eau et au moyen du mélange gazeux tampon 2H20 = 2H2+O2, on peut obtenir un potentiel d'oxydation encore plus faible que dans le cas du C02. De plus, l'hydrogène libéré pendant l'opération d'oxydation joue un rôle positif sur le processus, par le fait que cet oxygène produit à l'inter phase une réduction supplémentaire de la pression partielle en oxygène. A preferred oxidizing agent is water vapor. In the case of water vapor and by means of the buffer gas mixture 2H20 = 2H2 + O2, an even lower oxidation potential can be obtained than in the case of C02. In addition, the hydrogen released during the oxidation operation plays a positive role in the process, by the fact that this oxygen produces in the inter phase an additional reduction of the partial oxygen pressure.
Pour réaliser le processus d'oxydation sous une pression réduite et dans le but d'éviter l'utilisation d'appareils à vide , il est proposé d'amener l'agent d'oxydation sur l'objet à couvrir d'une couche d'oxyde da3 un gaz porteur inerte, de préférence un gaz rare, particuliè rement l'hélium ou l'argon. L'agent d'oxydation peut êtro alors et ae préférence utilisé dans un circuit fermé, ou s--en également dans un système de circulation semi-fermé ou à l'air libre. To carry out the oxidation process under reduced pressure and in order to avoid the use of vacuum devices, it is proposed to bring the oxidizing agent to the object to be covered with a layer of oxide of an inert carrier gas, preferably a rare gas, particularly helium or argon. The oxidizing agent can then be preferably used in a closed circuit, or also in a semi-closed circulation system or in the open air.
Dans le cas de l'utilisation du CO2 comme agent d'oxydation, le potentiel d'oxydation requis est infé- rieur à 50 mbar , de préférence aux environs de 10 mbar dans le cas de la vapeur d'eau, la pression partielle est inférieure à 100 mbar , ces valeurs s'entendant dans les eonditions normales. Avantageusement, le processus d'oxydation sera mené avec la vapeur d'eau à une pression partielle d'environ 20 mbar . Dans ce dernier cas, on travaille directement à la pression atmospherique et à la température ambiante. When using CO2 as an oxidizing agent, the required oxidation potential is less than 50 mbar, preferably around 10 mbar in the case of water vapor, the partial pressure is less than 100 mbar, these values being understood under normal conditions. Advantageously, the oxidation process will be carried out with water vapor at a partial pressure of around 20 mbar. In the latter case, one works directly at atmospheric pressure and at ambient temperature.
De préférence, l'épaisseur de la couche d'oxyde mesure entre 10 et 15 microns. Une telle couche est résistante et par suite stable sous les efforts mécaniques et autres sollicitations. Preferably, the thickness of the oxide layer measures between 10 and 15 microns. Such a layer is resistant and consequently stable under mechanical stresses and other stresses.
