Abstract
In thermal spraying of refractory metal powders, two major issues need to be solved: particles of materials having high melting temperatures should be heated to reach a semi-molten/molten state or temperatures close to the melting point, while oxidation of the metals should be prevented. It has long been believed that it is rather difficult, if not impossible, to produce high-quality refractory metal coatings by detonation spraying. In this work, we demonstrated the capability of the detonation spraying method to produce tantalum-based and molybdenum coatings of low porosity. Using a computer-controlled detonation spray (CCDS2000) facility, the detonation spraying behaviour of a molybdenum powder and a partially oxidized tantalum powder was studied. Spraying was conducted onto steel substrates using an acetylene-oxygen mixture with O-2/C2H2 = 1.1. The spraying process was studied by means of analyzing the splat morphology and calculating the particle temperatures and velocities. According to the X-ray diffraction phase analysis, the metals did not experience oxidation during the deposition. Rather, partial reduction of the oxide phase contained in the Ta-based powder occurred during spraying. (C) 2018 The Society of Powder Technology Japan.
