Definitions
- the present invention relates to a ceramic coating process for valve metals, to articles coated thereby, and to an apparatus for carrying out said process.
- Valve metals exhibit electrolytic rectification, and the present invention is therefore concerned with providing a coating process and apparatus for coating aluminium, zirconium, titanium, hafnium, and alloys thereof.
- the present invention is concerned with an electrolytical process using a shaped-wave, high-voltage alternating current to achieve melting during coating of even a thick layer, such a thick layer being achieved in a short time by changing electrolyte composition during the course of the process.
- Aluminium, titanium and their alloys have favourable strength/weight ratios which suit these metals to many applications, for example, for use in aircraft and for fast- moving parts in internal combustion engines.
- coatings are often used to improve wear and erosion-resistance.
- the applied coatings are likely to achieve further design requirements such as resistance to chemicals, particularly acids and alkalies; allowance of exposure to higher temperatures; reduction of friction, and the provision of dielectric properties. While the low- cost, widely-used anodizing process achieves some of these aims for moderate service, ceramic coatings are required for severe service requirements.
- Haganata et al. disclose the use in an electrolytic bath of a dispersion comprising an aqueous solution of a water-soluble or colloidal silicate and/or an oxyacid salt to which ceramic particles are dispersed. Voltage is increased during film formation from 50-200 N, and may finally exceed 1000 N.
- the output from a power supply may be a direct current having any wave form, but preferably those having a pulse shape (rectangular wave form), saw-tooth wave form, or DC half-wave form. Such language does not imply recognition that a sharply-peaked wave form makes a major contribution to providing a dense, hard film.
- Kepla-Coat Process A recently-developed coating method, known as the Kepla-Coat Process, is based on plasmachemical anodic oxidation.
- the cathode is the surface film of an organic electrolyte, above which the part to be coated is suspended, forming the anode.
- a plasma is formed which causes the production of a ceramic coating on the anode and heating of the workpiece. Due to the formation of an oxide film on the anode, the process produces a film no thicker than about 10 microns and terminates in 8-10 minutes. Workpiece heating occurs, as the workpiece is not surrounded by liquid; non-symmetrical or slender workpieces are likely to suffer distortion.
- a further disadvantage of the Kepla-Coat Process is that the high rate of electrolyte evaporation poses an environmental problem.
- the present invention achieves the above objectives and others by providing a process for forming a ceramic coating on a valve metal selected from the group consisting of aluminium, zirconium, titanium, hafnium and alloys of these metals, said process comprising immersing said metal as an electrode in an electrolytic bath comprising an aqueous solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, providing an opposite electrode immersed in or containing the electrolyte liquid, passing a modified shaped-wave alternate electric current from a high voltage source of at least 700 V through a surface of said metal to be coated and said opposite electrode, wherein said modified shaped-wave electric current rises from zero to its maximum height within less than a quarter of a full alternating cycle, thereby causing dielectric breakdown, heating, melting, and thermal compacting of a hydroxide film formed on the surface of said metal to form and weld a ceramic coating to said metal, and changing the composition of said electrolyte while said ceramic coating is being formed, said change being effected by adding an oxyacid salt of
- a still further object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for carrying out the above process in a cost-effective manner.
- the invention thus provides an apparatus for the batch ceramic coating of articles made of a valve metal selected from the group consisting of aluminium, zirconium, titanium, hafnium and alloys of these metals, said apparatus comprising an electrolytic bath comprising an aqueous solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, an electrode immersed in or containing the electrolyte liquid, another electrode comprising at least one of said articles to be coated and means to suspend said article in said electrolyte, a source of alternate electric current from a high voltage source of at least 700 V, means for shaping the AC wave form whereby shaped wave electric current rises from zero to its maximum height and falls to below 40% of its maximum height within less than a quarter of a full alternating cycle, connector elements to complete an electrochemical circuit, and means for adding to said bath, while the apparatus is in operation, a controlled supply of an oxyacid salt of an alkali metal.
- a distinguishing feature of the process of the present invention is its suitability to the production of hard coatings as thick as 300 microns within a reasonable time frame of about 90 minutes.
- This fast coating rate is achieved by changing the composition of the electrolyte while the coating process is in operation. Coating quality is not compromised by the fast formation of a thick coating, as the modified shaped current achieves momentary melting of the layer near the metal workpiece even after the film has built up to the stated thickness.
- Fig. 1 shows a preferred type of shaped-wave pulse
- Fig. 2 depicts the relationship between coating thickness and electrolysis time;
- Fig. 3 is a schematic view of an apparatus for batch coating, and
- Fig. 4 is a schematic view of an apparatus for series coating.
- the process of the invention will now be described.
- the process is used to form a ceramic coating on aluminium, zirconium, titanium, and hafnium.
- the process is also suited to alloys of these metals, provided the total of all alloying elements does not constitute more than approximately 20% of the whole.
- Process parameters may be optimized to suit the paticular metal being coated and the particular properties of the coating considered important to a specific application.
- the metal workpiece to be coated is connected as the electrode of an electrolytic bath and is immersed therein.
- the bath comprises water and a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide.
- the electrolyte consists essentially of an aqueous solution containing between 0.5 to 2 g/liter of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. Fine particles of various substances are added if it is required to improve the special, for example, low friction, properties of the coating. Where such particles are added, the electrolyte is agitated to keep the particles in suspension. Similarly, coloured coatings are produced by adding fine particles of pigmenting substances.
- the preferred opposite electrode for the process is a stainless steel bath containing the electrolyte liquid. Where it is preferred to hold the electrolyte in a non-conducting container, for example, for safety considerations, the electrode from ferrum, nickel or stainless steel is inserted into the bath in the conventional manner.
- a convenient and moderate-cost method of obtaining the required shaped-wave electric pulse current is by use of a capacitor bank connected in series between the high voltage source from 800 to 1,000 V and said metal workpiece which is being coated.
- Fig. 1 there is seen a wave form of preferred shape of current.
- the effect of using alternating current in combination with a high voltage is to prolong the life of the microarc, which causes intense, local, temporary heating, and as a result, the welding and melting of the coating being formed on the submerged metal workpiece.
- Anodizing is effected during the first positive half-cycle, the metal workpiece being the positive electrode.
- the dielectric coating already formed fails dielectrically, thereby starting the generation of microarcs.
- Arc lifetime extends almost to the end of the first half- cycle. Burning of arc is repeated during the second half-cycle, when the workpiece becomes the negative electrode.
- Trace 1 refers to a process wherein the electrolyte is pure potassium hydroxide.
- Traces 2 to 5 refer to processes wherein increasing concentrations of sodium tetrasilicate were used.
- Trace 6 refers to the process of the present invention. It has been found that much faster coating is made possible by changing the composition of the electrolyte while the ceramic coating is being formed.
- the change effected comprises adding to the electrolyte a salt containing a cation of an alkali metal and an oxyacidic anion of an amorphous element.
- Said amorphous element is selected from the group comprising B, Al, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, As, Sb, Bi, Se, Te, P, Ti, Zr, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Mn and Fe, said salt being added in a concentration of between 2 and 200 g/liter of solution.
- a preferred amorphous element is silicone, and a preferred added salt is sodium tetrasilicate.
- the term 'modified' as used herein refers to the fact that the wave form is other than the standard sinosidal form normally associated with a wave of alternating current and is instead modified, e.g., as illustrated in Fig. 1, to optimize the coating effect.
- Table 1 lists various types of coatings for different requirements. Examples are listed of aluminium alloys which have been ceramically coated to achieve various design requirements. Examples 3 and 4 were produced by the technique described above.
- the aluminium alloy known as 'Duralumin' has an alloy designation of 2014 and, because of its strength/weight ratio, has found extensive use in aircraft construction. This alloy was therefore chosen for test coating. Table 2 lists characteristics of an achieved coating and the results obtained.
- Second bath Potassium hydroxide 0.5
- Coating time minutes in first bath 10 in second bath 10 in third bath 20
- the invention also provides a ceramically-coated metal article produced by the described process.
- One example of such an article is an aluminium alloy piston for an internal combustion engine.
- a second example is an aluminium engine block for an internal combustion engine, intended to operate with minimal lubrication.
- a third example is a protective tile for spacecraft, designed to survive re-entry into the atmosphere.
- a fourth example is electric insulation serving also as a heat sink of an electronic board.
- Fig. 3 illustrates an apparatus 10 for the batch ceramic coating of articles 12 (first electrode) made of a valve metal selected from the group consisting of aluminium, zirconium, titanium, hafnium and alloys thereof.
- the apparatus 10 has an electrolytic 40-liter bath 14, comprising an electrolyte liquid 16 of water and a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide.
- Bath 14 is made of stainless steel and forms the second electrode.
- Agitation means 15 are provided to stir the electrolyte.
- the first electrode comprises at least one of the articles 12 to be coated, and conducting means 18 to suspend said article in the electrolyte liquid 16.
- a source of alternate electric current of at least 700 N is a 40,000 N-amp step-up transformer 20, designed to supply up to 800, 900, or 1000 N.
- the capacitor bank 22 has a total capacitance of 375 ⁇ F and it consists of capacitors with nominal capacitance of 25, 50, 100 and 200 ⁇ F.
- such means could be a rectifier and converter circuit (not shown), or other means of the type shown in Fink and Beaty, The Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers, 12th Ed., pp. 22-96, 22-97.
- Connector elements 24 are also provided to complete an electrochemical circuit.
- An operator control panel 26 is seen at the left of bath 14, the latter being enclosed behind safety doors 28. The opening of safety doors 28 cuts off the electric power.
- a salt-containing feed hopper 30, having a solenoid- operated feed valve 32, provides means for adding salt 34 to bath 14 while the apparatus 10 is in operation.
- Hopper 30 holds a supply of a salt 34, containing a cation of an alkali metal and an oxyacidic anion of an amorphous element.
- a suitable salt 34 is sodium tetrasilicate.
- a first electrolytic bath 38 contains electrolyte liquid 16, comprising water and a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide.
- a second electrolytic bath 40 contains an electrolyte liquid 42, comprising water, a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, and a low concentration of salt 34.
- a third electrolytic bath 44 contains an electrolyte liquid 46, comprising water, a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, and a higher salt concentration than in electrolyte 42.
- baths 38, 40, 44 can comprise a single stainless steel container 48, provided with two vertical dividers 50, forming the electrode.
- the other electrode comprises at least one of articles 12 to be coated and conducting means 18, which sequentially suspend article 12 in electrolyte liquids 16, 42, 46.
- Manual or automatic manipulation means 52 allow the transfer of article 12 from the first bath 38 to the second bath 40, and thence to third bath 44.
- the electrolyte in each bath remains substantially unchanged during operation, and may therefore be used repeatedly.
- the use of several electrolytes, each having a different composition, enables coating at speeds of about 2.5-4 microns per minute.
