ELECTRON BEAM REMELTING OF PLASMA SPRAYED ALUMINA COATINGS
Matějíček, Jiří; Veverka, J.; Čížek, J.; Kouřil, J.
2016 - English
Plasma sprayed alumina coatings find numerous applications in various fields, where they enhance the properties of the base material. Examples include thermal barriers, wear resistance, electrical insulation, and diffusion and corrosion barriers. A typical structure of plasma sprayed coatings, containing a multitude of voids and imperfectly bonded interfaces, gives them unique properties - particularly low thermal conductivity, high strain tolerance, etc. However, for certain applications such as permeation barriers or wear resistance, these voids may be detrimental.\nThis paper reports on the first experiments with remelting of plasma sprayed alumina coatings by electron beam technology, with the purpose of densifying the coatings and thereby eliminating the voids. Throughout the study, several parameters of the e-beam device were varied - beam current, traverse velocity and number of passes. The treated coatings were observed by light and electron microscopy and the thickness, structure and surface morphology of the remelted layer were determined and correlated with the process parameters. Based on the first series of experiments, the e-beam settings leading to dense and smooth remelted layer of sufficient thickness were obtained. In this layer, a change of phase composition and a marked increase in hardness were observed.\n Keywords: Plasma sprayed coating; alumina; electron beam; remelting; post-treatment Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Evolution of Point-To-Plane Nanosecond Discharge in Deionized Water
Šimek, Milan; Pongrác, Branislav; Člupek, Martin; Babický, Václav; Lukeš, Petr
2016 - English
We employed techniques of time-resolved ICCD microscopy and spectroscopy to register basic morphologic and emission fingerprints of micro-discharges produced in deionized water. Fast risetime high-voltage pulses (duration of 5 ns and amplitude of ~110 kV) applied in a point-to-plane electrode geometry produced micro-discharges either periodically or in a single-shot regime. Time resolved ICCD images evidence typical streamer-like branched filamentary morphology while emission spectra show a broad-band continuum evolving during the first few nanoseconds followed by the well-known HI/OI atomic lines (tens of ns).

THE INVESTIGATION OF AN Al7075 ALLOY PREPARED BY SPARK PLASMA SINTERING OF MILLED POWDERS
Molnárová, O.; Málek, P.; Nemeth, G.; Kozlík, J.; Lukáč, František; Chráska, Tomáš; Cinert, Jakub
2016 - English
Atomized powder of an Al7075 alloy was high energy ball milled at room and cryogenic temperatures and compacted by spark plasma sintering (SPS) method. The influence of processing parameters on phase composition and microstructure was studied by X-ray diffraction, light and scanning electron microscopy. The mechanical properties were characterized by microhardness measurements. The atomized powder contained a large volume fraction of intermetallic phases located predominantly in continuous layers separating cells or dendrites in the interior of individual powder particles. Consolidation by SPS destroyed partially this morphology and replaced it by individual particles located at boundaries of original powder particles, at cell boundaries or arranged in chains in previous dendritic regions. High energy milling destroyed most intermetallic particles and enriched the matrix by solute atoms. The high deformation energy introduced into the powder during milling enhanced microhardness up to 220 HV. Consolidation of milled powders by SPS led to the formation of very fine-grained structure with the grain size even below 1 μm and with the fraction of high-angle boundaries about 0.9. Two main types of heterogeneously distributed precipitates were found. The irregularly shaped precipitates with a size about 1 μm seemed to encompass areas with rod like nano-precipitates in most samples. A drop in microhardness to 118HV was observed after SPS, predominantly due to a release of introduced deformation energy.

ATMOSPHERIC JET BASED ON SURFACE STREAMER DIELECTRIC BARRIER DISCHARGE
Šimek, Milan; Prukner, Václav
2016 - English
We designed novel axisymmetric atmospheric jet formed by effluents produced by surface streamers suitable for various applications. Filamentary streamers are produced by the amplitude-modulated AC surface dielectric barrier discharge. The SDBD-based jet makes use of the tangential injection of the working gas into a cylindrical chamber that induces a fast vortex flow through the discharge zone and expells excited/ionized/reactive species out of the discharge area through the axial orifice in the form of a jet spinning around its axis. The jet may be easily used to treat surfaces, expose biological samples or even be injected in liquids. Keywords: atmospheric pressure; jet; surface barrier discharge Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Synthesis and applications of Intermetallics
Novák, P.; Salvetr, P.; Kříž, J.; Kubatík, Tomáš František
2015 - English
Intermetallic compounds, intermetallics, are characterized by interesting properties, such as e.g. excellent high -temperature oxidation resistance, shape memory or ability to store hydrogen reversibly. Their positive, but also negative, properties are a combination of the behaviour of metals and ceramics. Their wider application in industry is limited due to low room-temperature ductility and problematic production, associated with high melting points of many intermetallics, high reactivity of metals at high temperatures and problematic processing. In this paper, the overview of the methods for synthesis of intermetallic compounds is presented, ranging from conventional casting processes to modern powder metallurgy technologies. Selected interesting applications from industry and medicine, where their unique properties are used Keywords: Intermetallic compounds; powder metallurgy technologies Fulltext is available at external website.

SPARK PLASMA SINTERING OF BALL MILLED AND ATOMIZED POWDER BASED ON Fe-Al
Šíma, V.; Minárik, P.; Chráska, Tomáš
2015 - English
High-quality compacts were prepared using the spark plasma sintering (SPS) method from powders of similar composition Fe-Al-Zr-B. The properties of the sintered compacts are strongly dependent on the morphology and properties of the feedstock powder. The first powder was obtained by ball milling of the as cast alloy and the second was prepared by atomization under argon atmosphere. The morphology and structure of the two powders are compared and mechanical properties and microstructure of compacts prepared under the same conditions of the SPS procedure are discussed. The milled powder has an irregular morphology and shape of the polycrystalline particles, which have a completely disordered BCC structure with considerable internal stresses, high concentration of structural defects and the presence of aluminum oxide. The atomized powder particles are nearly spherical, polycrystalline with ordered B2 structure, with no significant signs of internal stresses and oxidation. Microhardness of particles of both powders was measured and compared with the microhardness of compact materials, the results of compression tests of compacts at room temperature were compared and discussed.

Ondáč, Peter; Mašláni, Alan; Hrabovský, Milan
2015 - English
Arc-anode attachment in a DC plasma arc stabilized by water vortex and argon, influences power distribution in the plasma, lifetime of the anode and also flow structure of the plasma jet. A movement of the attachment and the surrounding plasma has been directly observed by using a high-speed camera (max. 1,080,000 fps). The observations were compared with cathode–anode voltage measurements (sample rate 80 MHz). More than one attachment was observed in one frame with exposure time 0.25 μs or 0.29 μs. We have directly measured average velocities of the attachments and hydrodynamic waves above them, as well as the characteristic dwell times and dwell frequencies of the attachments Keywords: Arc-anode; plasma arc Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Brožek, Vlastimil; Kubatík, Tomáš František; Chráska, Tomáš; Mušálek, Radek; Janata, Marek; Mastný, L.
2015 - English
The paper aims to demonstrate the possibilities of metal-ceramic material deposition on different types of metal or ceramic substrates using plasma deposition. A number of self-supporting components and the preparation of metal-braced composites are described and the results of plasma depositions of two particular extremely hard ceramic materials, boride and nitride of titanium are presented. The plasma deposition of these material is performed in technological conditions which prevent undesirable high-temperature oxidation. The paper describes deposition conditions that may lead to materials suited to create anti-ballistic protection and complicated shapes or improve parameters of surface layers of present anti-ballistic ceramics. Keywords: Anti-ballistic ceramics; armour ceramics; plasma spraying; titanium boride; plasma spraying; titanium nitride Fulltext is available at external website.
