چکیده

در این پژوهش از یک روش نوین جهت افزایش محتوای نانوذرات آلومینا در پوشش های کامپوزیتی پایه نیکل آبکاری شده با جریان پالسی استفاده شد. متانول، اتانول و فرمالدهید به عنوان مواد آلی به صورت جزئی به محلول وات اضافه شدند و پوشش های نانوکامپوزیتی نیکل آلومینا در حضور همگن سازی هم زمان اولتراسونیک و مگنتیک ایجاد شدند. بعد از فرایند پوشش دادن، تاثیر حضور این حلال های آلی در محلول آبکاری با مقایسه سطح مقطع پوشش های نانوکامپوزیتی، با استفاده از میکروسکوپ الکترونی روبشی (FESEM) مجهز به طیف‌سنج پراش انرژی پرتو ایکس (EDS)، بررسی شد. رفتار سایشی و سختی پوشش های نانو کامپوزیتی آبکاری شده به وسیله آزمایش گوی روی دیسک ارزیابی شد. مطالعات ریزساختاری نشان داد که مقدار نانوذرات در پوشش های ایجاد شده با محلول وات بدون حلال آلی 2.1 wt.% است و این مقدار با افزودن حلال های آلی افزایش می یابد. به طوری که، بیشینه مقدار نانوذرات در این تحقیق (5.2 wt.%) با افزودن متانول به دست می آید. سختی سطحی پوشش های ایجاد شده با محلول وات 301 Hv بود که با افزودن متانول به 485 Hv افزایش یافت. آزمایش های سایش نیز نشان داد که افزودن متانول، مقاومت سایشی را بیش از دو برابر نسبت به الکترولیت بدون حلال آلی افزایش می دهد. بررسی میکروسختی پوشش ها موید این واقعیت است که افزایش نانوذرات تقویت کننده و میکروسختی در اثر استفاده از حلال آلی متانول سبب تقویت مکانیکی لایه اکسیدی و ایجاد بیشترین مقاومت سایشی در نانوکامپوزیت های آبکاری شده می شود.

چکیده [English]

In this study, a novel method was used to increase alumina nanoparticles content in nickel base composite coatings plated by pulse current. Methanol, ethanol and formaldehyde were partially added to the Watt’s solution as organic substances and nickel alumina nanocomposite coatings were produced adopted by simultaneous ultrasonic and magnetic homogenizing. After electroplating, the effect of these organic solvents was investigated by comparison of cross sectional observation of the coatings by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The hardness and wear behavior of electroplated nanocomposite coatings were evaluated by ball on disk test at room temperature and ambient air. Microstructures studies showed that the amount of incorporated nanoparticles in the coatings plated with the electrolyte without organic solvent is 2.1 wt. % and this amount increases with the addition of organic solvents. So that, the maximum amount of nanoparticles in this study (5.2 wt. %) is achieved by adding methanol. Surface hardness of the coatings plated with Watt’s solution was 301 Hv which increased to 485 Hv with adding methanol. Wear tests also showed that the addition of methanol increased the wear resistance twice more than the electrolyte without organic solvent. The microhardness investigation verifies this fact that increasing of reinforcement nanoparticles and coating’s microhardness due to adding methanol provides the oxide layer’s mechanical strength and creates the highest wear resistance in the plated nanocomposites.
