Abstract

Magnesium alloys are frequently used in the automotive and aerospace industries due to their high specific strength. Various studies are carried out to increase the wear and corrosion resistance of alloys. The study includes the coating and characterization of WE43 magnesium alloys, with tantalum-oxide. Tantalum-oxide coatings were applied to WE43 magnesium alloy by RF sputtering method. In order to observe the effect of acid etching applied to the surfaces before the coating process, H2SO4 and HCl acid mixtures were used and the samples were subjected to acid etching after polishing at 25, 45, 65 and 85 °C, with in contact with the acid. The effects of the applied acid etching processes on the coated surfaces were investigated within the study. The effects of the applied processes on surface morphology before coating, the metallurgical bond formed between the surface and coating layer and the surface properties after coating were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, energy distribution spectroscopy, X-ray scanning and coating thickness measurements taken from the cross section. As a result, it was determined there were differences in the surfaces before the coating, cracked and worn areas were observed, and nevertheless, crack-free/non-porous, continuous and homogeneous coating layers were obtained on the surfaces. The applied surface treatments caused changes in the surface chemistry and morphology. Coating thicknesses were obtained as 2.52±0.02 µm.

Abstract

Magnezyum alaşımları yüksek özgül dayanımları nedeni ile otomotiv ve havacılık sektörlerinde sıklıkla kullanılan alaşımlardır. Alaşımların aşınma ve korozyon dayanımlarını arttırmaya yönelik yoğunlaşan çeşitli çalışmalar sürdürülmektedir. Yapılan çalışma, WE43 magnezyum alaşımın tantal-oksit ile kaplanması ve karakterizasyonunu içermektedir. WE43 magnezyum alaşımına RF sıçratma yöntemi ile tantal-oksit kaplamalar uygulanmıştır. Kaplama işlemi öncesi yüzeylere uygulanan asit aşındırma işleminin etkisini gözlemleyebilmek amacıyla, H2SO4 ve HCl asit karışımları kullanılmış ve numuneler asit ile 25, 45, 65 ve 85 °C’de parlatma sonrası asit aşındırma işlemine tabi tutulmuştur. Uygulanan asit aşındırma işlemlerinin kaplanmış yüzeylere etkileri çalışma kapsamında incelenmiştir. Uygulanan işlemlerin kaplama öncesi yüzey morfolojisine, yüzey ile kaplama tabakası arasında oluşan metalürjik bağa ve kaplama sonrası yüzey özelliklerine olan etkileri taramalı elektron mikroskobu, enerji dağılım spektroskopisi, X-ışını taraması ve kesitten alınan kaplama kalınlık ölçümleri ile incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, kaplama öncesi yüzeylerde farklılıklar olduğu, çatlaklı ve aşınmış alanlar gözlemlendiği ve buna rağmen yüzeylerde çatlaksız/gözeneksiz, sürekliliği olan ve homojen kaplama tabakaları elde edildiği tespit edilmiştir. Uygulanan yüzey işlemleri yüzey kimyasında ve morfolojisinde çeşitli değişikliklere neden olmuştur. Kaplama kalınlıkları 2,52±0,02 µm olarak elde edilmiştir.
