    The effect of high B4C ratio on the improvement of mechanical properties and wear resistance of Al2024/B4C composites fabricated by mechanical milling-assisted hot pressing

    Beder, Murat

    In this study, the effects of 0 wt% (C0), 10 wt% (C1), 20 wt% (C2) and 40 wt% (C3) B4C content on the microstructure, mechanical properties and dry wear properties of Al2024/B4C composites were investigated. In order to prepare Al2024 matrix composites with different B4C particle contents, mechanical milling (MM) and hot pressing (HP) were employed as powder metallurgy methods. It was found that the θ (CuAl2) phase content in the microstructure of Al2024/B4C compact materials increased with increasing B4C particle reinforcement, reaching its highest value at 40 wt% B4C (C3) reinforcement ratio. As the B4C particle reinforcement content increased, the hardness values of the composite samples increased. Flexural strength values were 445.30 MPa, 495.20 MPa, 277.59 MPa, and 129.37 MPa for samples coded C0, C1, C2, and C3, respectively. It was found that the C0 sample without particle reinforcement exhibited more than 10 times the volume loss of the C3 sample with the highest particle reinforcement at 450 m sliding distance. The SEM examination of the friction surfaces of the Al2024/B4C composite samples showed that the worn surfaces were composed of delamination, adhesion and smearing layers.

    Characterization, corrosion, adhesion and wear properties of Al2O3 and Al2O3:TiB2 composite coating on Al 7075 aluminum alloy by one-step micro-arc oxidation method

    Sukuroglu, Suleyman

    This study was carried out in order to increase the usage areas of Al 7075 alloy, which is preferred as an engineering material in the aerospace industry, defense industry and automotive industry, in high temperature applications, wear resistance in different environments and corrosion resistance in aggressive environments. For this purpose, the focus was on the growth of Al2O3 and Al2O3:TiB2 doped composite coatings on the surface of Al 7075 aluminum alloy by the MAO method, and the structural, morphological, corrosion, adhesion and wear properties of the grown coatings in three different environments (atmospheric conditions, brine containing 3.5 % NaCl and oil). Firstly, Al2O3 coatings were grown in electrolytic solution number 1. Secandly, Al2O3:TiB2 doped composite coatings were grown in electrolytic solution number 2 and the phase structure, microstructure and chemical composition of the grown coatings were determined by X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy, respectively. The abrasion behavior of the coatings in three different environments was determined by a pin-on disc abrasion tester, adhesion resistances were determined by a Scratch Test, and corrosion resistance was determined by a potentiodynamic polarization tester. It was observed that dense and uniform coatings were grown on the surfaces of TiB2 nanoparticle-added (Al2O3:TiB2) coatings, porosity and pore sizes on the surfaces of the coatings were reduced and microcracks were reduced. In addition, it was determined that the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of composite coatings (Al2O3:TiB2) grown with nanoparticle addition increased, and coatings with high bond strength with the substrate were grown.

    Wear Resistance of Aluminum Alloy A356 After Thorough Anodic Oxidation

    Başyipit, Aziz Bariş; Azakli, Zeki; Gümrük, Recep; Bican, Osman

    The efficiency of thorough anodic oxidation of ASTM A356 aluminum alloy as an alternative to painting its surface is studied. Microstructure, phase composition, and microhardness of oxidized layers of various thicknesses (45, 65, 80 and 90 μm) are determined. Solid particle erosion tests are conducted in accordance with ASTM G76 and MIL STD 3033. It is established that with an increase in oxidized layer thickness aluminum alloy wear resistance is reduced and the surface roughness is reduced.

    Analysis of Tribo-corrosion Properties of MAO/DLC Coatings Using a Duplex Process on Ti6Al4V Alloys

    Sukuroglu, Ebru Emine; Totik, Yasar; Arslan, Ersin; Efeoglu, Ihsan

    In recent years, various technologies have been increasingly investigated for the surface modification of Ti and Ti alloys. Microarc oxidation (MAO) is one of the effective techniques to improve surface properties. However, it has some disadvantages for sliding wear applications and/or aggressive environments. In this study, the combined MAO and closed field unbalanced magnetron sputtering process was used to deposit duplex MAO/diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings on Ti6Al4V alloy. Analysis of the microstructures, morphology, and crystallographic structure were performed by using a SEM, Raman, and XRD. The wear, corrosion, and tribo-corrosion properties of the coatings were investigated using the pin-on-disk wear test, potentiodynamic polarization test, and combining tribo-corrosion test unit, respectively. The results of this study have shown that duplex MAO/DLC coatings exhibit better wear, corrosion, and tribo-corrosion properties than the DLC or MAO monolayer on Ti6Al4V alloy substrate. MAO/DLC coatings exhibited dense structure, lower coefficient of friction and corrosion current density, and higher tribo-corrosion resistance. The results have also shown that MAO/DLC duplex coatings on Ti6Al4V substrates increased the tribo-corrosion resistance by acting as a barrier layer.
