Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method for forming diffusion coatings on aluminum and aluminum alloy surfaces. More particularly this invention is concerned with an electrolytic process for alloying the surface of aluminum in molten salt baths.
  • diffusion coatings can be formed on metal surfaces by several high temperature processes evaporative, gaseous, pack cementation, immersion in molten metals and electrolysis in molten salts. These methods, however, have been used almost exclusively to coat metals that melt above 1000 C. in which operating temperatures were usually above 800 C. and frequently at 1000-1200" C. The low melting point of aluminum (660 C.) and the high temperatures generally required for operating most of the coating processes had made it appear unlikely that diffusion coatings could be formed on aluminum and aluminum alloys.
  • hard, adherent, tough, corrosion resistant coatings can be formed on aluminum and aluminum alloys by electrolytically depositing certain metals onto the aluminum surface from fused halide salt mixtures operating at temperatures below the melting point of aluminum and using anodes of the material being deposited, current densities which match the diffusion rates, and atmospheres that are inert to the coating system.
  • a metalliding metal is employed as the anode and is immersed in a fused mixed halide bath composed essentially of a mixture of the chlorides, bromides, with or without the fluorides of members from the alkali, alkaline earth metals and from 0.01 to 100 mole percent of a halide of the metalliding metal.
  • the cathode employed is aluminum or an aluminum alloy upon which deposit is to be made. It has been found that such a combination is an electric cell in which an electric current is generated when an electrical connection, which is external to the fused bath, is made between the aluminum cathode and the metalliding anode.
  • the metalliding metal dissolves in the fused salt bath and metalliding ions are discharged at the surface of the aluminum cathode where they form a deposit of the metalliding metal which immediately diffuses into and reacts with the aluminum to form a metallide coating.
  • metallide is 3,522,021 Patented July 28, 1970 employed to designate any solid solution or alloy of the metalliding metal and the aluminum metal substrate regardless of whether the aluminum does or does not form an intermetallic compound with the metalliding reagents in definite stoichiometric proportions which can be represented by a chemical formula.
  • the rate of dissolution and deposition of the metalliding agent is self-regulating in that the rate of deposition is equal to the rate of diffusion of the metalliding metal into the aluminum cathode.
  • the deposition rate can be decreased by inserting some resistance in the circuit. A faster rate can be obtained by impressing a limited amount of voltage into the circuit to supply additional direct current.
  • the molten salts that can be employed in the process of this invention are the mixtures of chlorides, and/or bromides, with or without the fluorides, of Group I-A, II-A metals and/or the halides of the metalliding metal being employed, that melt below the melting point of aluminum or the aluminum alloy coating being formed thereon, and which mixtures do not contain metal ions that interfere with the desired coating process.
  • the metal halide mixture which can be em ployed in the process of this invention, includes the alkali and alkaline earth metal chlorides; mixtures of the above chlorides with the alkali and alkaline earth metal fluorides; mixtures of the alkali and alkaline earth metal bromides and chlorides; and mixtures of these bromides and fluorides providing the salt mixtures melt below the melting point of aluminum and the alloy coating being formed thereon.
  • a mixture containing substantial concentrations of fluoride it is preferred to avoid the use of the fluorides of potassium, rubidium and cesium because of the displacement of these metals by aluminum and the 'volatilization of these metals with obvious disadvantages.
  • the temperature at which the process of this invention is operated is critical but can readily be determined by one skilled in the art from such melting points.
  • the particular halide mixtures employed in the process of this invention must melt below the melting point of aluminum or the alloy coating.
  • chloride systems or mixed chloride-fluoride systems which melt low enough to permit their use.
  • Many of these halide eutectic systems can be found in and in Phase Diagrams for Ceramists by Levin, Robbins, and McMurdie published by American Ceramic Society (1964) and in Phase Diagrams for Nuclear Reactor Materials by R. E. Thoma of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, ONRL-2548.
  • the process of this invention In order to produce diffusion coatings rapidly, it is preferred to operate the process of this invention at temperatures as high as possible; e.g., 500 C. to about 650 C. Inasmuch as the diffusion coatings of some metals form compounds that lower the melting point of aluminum, the process in those instances has to be run considerably below the melting point of aluminum; e.g., at 400 to 500 C. for magnesiding, etc. Other diffusion coatings form compounds that have very high melting pointsthat is, the rare earth aluminidesand in such instances it is preferable to operate as close as possible to the melting point of aluminum; i.e., 600650 C. It has been found that the density of the salts, about 2 to 3, will give sufficient bouyancy to the light weight aluminum that it is possible to operate very near to the melting point of aluminum without causing distortion of the parts being coated.
  • the metalliding reagents which can be diffused into aluminum in accordance with the process of this invention include the metals lithium, magnesium, scandium, yttrium, lanthanum and the natural rare earths of the lanthanide series, actinium and the natural rare earths of the actinide series, hafnium and zirconium. Combinations of these metalliding reagents can also be diffused into the aluminum surfacesimultaneously, when proper adjustments of molar concentrations of the metalliding ions are made in the salt, and/or sequentially, by selecting the correct sequence as dictated by reactivities of the metalliding agents.
  • the amount of metalliding halide in the fused salt bath can be from 0.01 to 100 mole percent. It is preferred in most instances for ecenomy that the amount of metallidinghalide in the fused salt bath be maintained at about 0.1 to 50 mole percent, and even more preferred from 0.1 to 5 mole percent.
  • the chemical composition of the fused salt bath is critical if good metallide coatings on aluminum are to be obtained.
  • the starting salt should be as anhydrous and as free of all impurities as is possible, or should be easily dried or purified by simply heating during the fusion step. Because most of the metalliding reagents which can be diffused into aluminum react With oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen, the process must be carried out in an inert atmosphere and especially in the substantial absence of oxygen. Thus, for example, the process can be carried out in an argon gas atmosphere. By the term substantial absence of oxygen, it is meant that neither atmospheric oxygen nor oxides of metals are present in the fused salt bath.
  • an electric current will flow through the circuit without any applied electromotive force.
  • the anode acts by dissolving in the fused salt bath to produce electrons and the metalliding ions.
  • the electrons flow through the external circuit formed by the conductor and the metal ions migrate through the fused salt bath to the aluminum metal cathode to be metallided, where the electrons discharge the metalliding ions and form a metallide coating on the aluminum.
  • the amount of current can be measured with an ammeter which enables one to readily calculate the amount of metal being deposited on the aluminum cathode and being converted to the metallide layer. Knowing the area of the article being plated, it is possible to calculate the thickness of the metallide coating formed, thereby permitting accurate control of the process to obtain any desired thickness of the metallide layer.
  • the process operates very satisfactorily without impressing any additional electromotive force on the electrical circuit, it has been found that it is possible to apply a small voltage to obtain constant current densities during the reaction, and to increase the deposition rate of the metalliding agent being deposited.
  • the additional should be adjusted so that the diffusion rate of the metalliding reagent into the aluminum cathode is not exceeded.
  • the additional (when external resistance is negligible) should not exceed 1.0 volt and preferably should fall between 0.1 and 0.5 volt.
  • the deposition rate of the iding agent must always be adjusted so as not to exceed the diffusion rate of the iding agent into the substrate material if high efficiency and high quality diffusion coatings are to be obtained.
  • the maximum current density for good metalliding will generally not exceed 10 amperes per dm. Higher current densities can sometimes be used to form coatings but in addition to the formation of a metallide coating, plating of the iding agent occurs over the diffusion layer.
  • Very low current densities (0.0l0.1 amp/rim?) are often employed when diffusion rates are correspondingly low, and when very dilute surface solutions or very thin coatings are desired.
  • the composition of the diffusion coating can be changed by varying the current density, producing under one condition a composition suitable for one application and under another condition a composition suitable for another application.
  • current densities to form good quality metallide coatings on aluminum fall between 0.1 and 5 amperes/ dm. for the preferred temperature ranges of this disclosure.
  • the source for example, a battery or other source of direct current
  • the source should be connected in series with the external circuit so that the negative terminal is connected to the external circuit, terminating at the aluminum cathode being metallided and the positive terminal is connected to the external circuit terminating at the metal anode. In this way, the voltages of both sources are algebraically additive.
  • measuring instruments such as voltmeters, ammeters, resistances, timers, etc., may be included in the external circuit to aid in the control of the process.
  • the metallided aluminum compositions prepared by the process of this invention have a Wide variety of uses. They can be used to fabricate vessels for chemical reactions, to make gears, bearings and other articles requiring hard wear and corrosion resistant surfaces, and other articles where close tolerances are needed. Other uses will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art as well as other modifications and variations of the present invention in light of the above teachings.
  • EXAMPLE 1 A mixture of barium chloride 1070 g., 5.2 moles), potassium chloride (555 g., 7.4 moles) and sodium chloride (342 g., 5.9 moles) was charged into a Monel pot (3%" ID. x 3 /2" OD. x 12" deep, with a top flange 6 /2" x /2: thick) which was then sealed with a water-cooled nickel plated steel cover plate (6%" diam. x 1" thick) fitted with two glass electrode towers (1%" diameter), a bubbler for introducing inert gas beneath the salt and a thermocouple well for measuring and controlling the temperature of the molten salt. The cell was alternately evacuated to 0.5 mm.
  • Cerium chloride (37.1 g., 0.15 mole) was added to bring total molar concentration of CeCl in the fused salt to -0.9% and after one-half hour of electrolytic cleanup at 0.1 ampere against a nickel screen, an aluminum strip (8 X 1.2 x 0.1) was cerided at 600 C. as follows:
  • KHN Knoop Hardness Number EXAMPLE 3
  • the sample could be bent in a two inch radius before cracking on the compression side and in a one inch radius before cracking on the tension side.
  • the surface of the sample was readily polished by emery paper into a smooth shiny surface that has retained its luster for three months in air; also the surface of the coating is resistant to both concentrated and dilute nitric acid. Pure cerium is very reactive with nitric acid and tarnishes rapidly in air.
  • CeCl 103 g., 0.42 molebringing total molar concentration of CeCl in salt to 3.1 mOle percent
  • the coating was very flexible, maintained its bright finish for several months exposure in air and X-ray examination showed it to be an alloy of aluminum and magnesium.
  • a method for forming metallide coatings on aluthickness can be made it the current densities are low minum and aluminum alloys with a metalliding metal (-0.125 amp/dm?) so that magnesium concentration in selected from the group consisting of lithium, magnesium, the coating remains low.

  • the fused salt is composed essentially of barium chloride, lithium chloride and yttrium chloride.
  • the fused salt consists essentially of barium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium chloride and uranium chloride.
