Definitions

  • the invention relates to the preparation of a protective coating by diffusion of chromium and iron in combination into the surface of a metal base in which the surface is formed of nickel or an alloy of nickel.
  • PROTECTIVE COATINGS BY CHROMIUM DIFFUSION OF METAL PARTS AND PROCESS The invention refers to the production of protective coats by diffusion of metal on parts which show a high content of nickel at the surface. These coats are relatively thick and show oxidation, corrosion, thermal shock and crack resistance, especially at high temperatures.
  • nickel has a high resistance against atmospheric corrosion. That is why metal parts have been coated with nickel through a galvanic process, for example.
  • the nickel is attacked while heating up by oxidation or corrosion comparatively early, depending on the surrounding atmosphere, more or less, by air, oxygen, sulphur or sulphur combinations.
  • Parts which were coated with nickel, as well as those from pure nickel or at least 50 percent nickel containing alloys, which were treated according to the invented process showed a surprisingly thick coat with a high chromium concentration. However, no deterioration of these attributes of the produced coat showed up as normally should be expected. It was also surprising that the indiffused iron did not take any space of the chromium indiffused at the same time. On the contrary the nickel content at the surface was lowered at a percentage equivalent to the amount of iron.
  • the transformation or indiffusion of chromium and iron takes place through the vapor phase where the chromium as well as the iron are existing as a halogen combination.
  • the parts are formed of a base of nickel or a nickel alloy or also of a metal or metal alloy which were previously coated with nickel with a melting point above the diffusion temperature.
  • These samples to be treated are suitably packed in a mixture of 10 percent chromium chloride, 5 percent iron chloride and percent aluminum oxide, and are heated according to the coat thickness to l,000 -l,200 C. for 5 to 20 hours.
  • the indicated combination of the packing mixture is only an example. Instead of the chloride other halides can be used for the same purpose according to the invention.
  • the invented process is also used at the advantage with metals and metal alloys which do not contain enough nickel to make possible the buildup of the wanted chromium-nickeliron coat. It is also advantageous with metals which cannot be chromized, because, for example, a limitation of diffusion exists through the material in connection with a mixed crystal buildup or the solubility for chromium or the hindering through other elements such as carbides or equivalents. In such cases, a nickel coat is put on through galvanic processes or spraying to produce a base in which the chromium and iron can be diffused. This process has the advantage for parts from metals or metal alloys especially when the center of the part should show high hardness, stress resistance, or other special attributes, and when the surface should be protected against corrosion, crack build up or thermal shock stress at high temperatures.
