Abstract:

NbCrAl coatings with and without CrON diffusion barrier (DB) are prepared on C103 Nb-based superalloy by magnetron sputtering technique. The element diffusion behavior of two kinds of the coatings during vacuum heat treatment at 900℃ and 1000℃ is investigated. The results indicate that the as-deposited NbCrAl coating is composed of Cr2Nb and AlNb2 with amorphous phases. After vacuum heat treatment, NbAl3 and (Nb,Cr) precipitated phases are formed. When the heat treatment temperature is increased to 1000℃ from 900℃, the rate of diffusion of elements in the NbCrAl coating becomes accelerated. Cr and Al elements in the samples without a DB diffuse to C103 substrate are 2.76wt% and 1.21wt%, while in the samples with a DB are only 2.52wt% and 0.84wt%. CrON diffusion barrier maintains continuous and has good adhesion to the coating and substrate as well. During high-temperature treatment, the CrON diffusion barrier, which is mainly composed of Cr2O3 and Al2O3 phases with close-packed hexagonal structure phases, effectively suppresses the elements inter-diffusion between the coating and substrate.
