Influence of TiO₂ and ZrO₂Nano Particles Addition in Al₂O₃ Base Coating Using Plasma Spraying

Abstract:

The additive (3wt%) nano-particles of anatase-TiO₂ and monoclinic-ZrO₂ were prepared using ball-milling method to form Al₂O₃/3wt%TiO₂ and Al₂O₃/3wt%ZrO₂ nanocomposite powders. The incorporation of nano-particles can significantly enhance the microstructure and mechanic properties of Al₂O₃-base coating. The phase of microstructure coating was present mostly of γ-Al₂O₃and α-Al₂O₃ phases, while anatase-TiO₂ was transformed to rutile-TiO₂ and monoclinic-ZrO₂ was changed to tetragonal-ZrO₂ due to such high temperature of plasma plume. SEM microstructures of the coatings mainly displayed a lamellar structure of Al₂O₃ with interlarmellar pores and well dispersed splats of TiO₂ and ZrO₂ phases. The Al₂O₃/3wt%ZrO₂ presented the lowest value of friction coefficient and sliding wear rate. It was found that the plasma-sprayed composite coating possessed better wear resistance than that of monolithic Al₂O₃ coating. The addition of nano-particles was found to improve friction coefficient and sliding wear resistance.
