Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for generating an abrasive wear-resistant layer (13) on a substrate (11). According to the invention, said layer (13) consists of particles (14) of a ductile material, in particular Zn, wherein the parameters of the cold spraying process are set such that a comparatively loose laminate having pores (15) is formed by the spray particles (14). Said laminate advantageously and surprisingly exhibits high resistance to abrasive wear (for example by a particle (16)) because the layer (13) can avoid the attack by the particle (16) by plastic deformation and closure of the pores (15), whereby abrasive removal of the layer is advantageously low. The invention further relates to a use of a cold gas-sprayed layer as a protective layer against abrasive wear.
Abstract:
In a method for cold gas spraying a layer, coating particles are accelerated in a cold spraying nozzle. The particles have a plastic encapsulation. In said manner, the plastic is precipitated onto the substrate together with the metal material, thereby forming in particular layer compositions having good sliding properties, dirt repellent properties, or lubricating properties. The coating can be used as a bearing component of a sliding bearing, as a flow component, in particular as a rotor blade of wind power plants or body components of transportation vehicle, or as trim components of structures.
Abstract:
In a method for applying an electron absorber layer to a substrate, an electron absorber layer is produced from a composite material, by coating the substrate with a metallic material, and material inclusions made from an additional material are embedded in the metallic material during coating. The metallic material contains aluminum, magnesium, cobalt, iron, chromium, titanium, nickel, copper, or an alloy or mixture thereof. The additional material contains one or more of the following substances: boron, carbon or silicon, a mixture of these elements, one or more chemical compounds made from or having at least two of these elements, or a mixture of such chemical compounds.
Abstract:
A method for repairing a component such as a turbine blade is provided. At the end of its operating time, the component has, for example, a depletion of aluminium in a region near the surface. The application of a repair layer is provided including particles with an increased proportion of aluminium. A subsequent heat treatment may achieve the effect of equalizing the concentration of aluminium between the repair layer and the region near the surface, and so the aluminium content required for new components is achieved again.
Abstract:
Cladding that is self-supporting is joined on a component such that a joining gap is created between the edges. The joining gap is closed by cold gas spraying with a bead-like layer such that the cladding can be used, for example, as corrosion protection. If the component is made of aluminum, for example, the component can be sued as a current-conducting component during galvanic coating. In this case, a cladding made of titanium can be used as the corrosion protection layer.
Abstract:
A component part has a catalyst surface. This surface has metallic components and components of MnO2 (13) in contact with the former. The metallic components are preferably formed of Ag and/or Ni. These material pairs achieve a great improvement in catalyst action compared to the pure metals. Especially in the case of use of Ni, which is toxicologically safe, these surfaces, for example, may also find use in ambient air purification for reduction of the ozone content. The surface can be applied, for example, by a coating of the component part, in which case the metallic component and the component of MnO2 are applied in two layers.

Abstract:
A description is given of a method for depositing a non-metallic, in particular ceramic, coating on a substrate (2) by means of cold gas spraying, which comprises the method steps of: producing a reactive gas flow (5) comprising at least one reactive gas, injecting into the reactive gas flow (5) particles (4) consisting of at least one material required for producing a non-metallic, in particular ceramic, coating material by reaction with the reactive gas, so as to form a mixture flow of reactive gas and particles (4), producing reactive gas radicals in the mixture flow, and directing the mixture flow comprising reactive gas radicals and particles onto a surface of a substrate (2) to be coated, and so a non-metallic, in particular ceramic, coating is deposited on the surface of the substrate (2). In addition, a description is given of a device (1) for carrying out the method.
Abstract:
A component made of electrically insulating material with a detection structure for mechanical damage such as cracks is disclosed. The detection structure is a conductor. The electrical properties of the detection structure are modified as more and more cracks are formed such that the component will be replaced in time before breaking. The electrical conductor is formed by particles that are in contact with each other and have a metallic surface such that an electrical conductor is created which is particularly sensitive to mechanical damage, thus rendering the detection structure highly sensitive. Furthermore, if the metallic surface is produced merely by cladding the particles while the inside of the particles is made of the same material as the component, a conductor featuring an adapted thermal expansion behavior is created for components that are subject to great thermal stress, e.g. heat shield panels.
