Zn-Al coating with sintered neodymium-iron-boron as base body and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of metal corrosion prevention, in particular to a Zn-Al coating which takes sintered neodymium iron boron as a matrix and has neutral salt spray resistance test of more than 1000 h.
Background
The sintered Nd-Fe-B is a rare earth permanent magnetic material, has high cost performance, good mechanical property, high energy density and extremely high magnetic energy and coercive force. The advantages enable the neodymium iron boron to have wide application in the fields of medical equipment, modern industry, new energy automobiles, aerospace and the like. However, neodymium iron boron is easy to corrode and pulverize due to poor high temperature resistance, and the expansion of the application field of the magnet is severely limited. Therefore, it is urgent to improve the corrosion resistance of the steel sheet to meet the requirements of practical use.
Currently, there are two methods for improving the corrosion resistance of sintered neodymium iron boron: the first is adding alloy elements; the second is to add a coating on the surface of the magnet. The first addition of alloying elements increases the corrosion resistance of the magnet, generally destroys the magnet, and does not significantly improve the corrosion resistance. For example, electroplating and chemical plating, although the two methods have low cost, three serious problems exist, firstly, the discharge of the electroplating waste liquid seriously pollutes the environment; secondly, because the plating solution is deposited in the plating solution, the plating solution can permeate into the substrate, so that the magnet is corroded; thirdly, the hydrogen evolution reaction of electroplating can cause the surface of the neodymium iron boron substrate to be loose, thereby causing the film-substrate bonding force to be poor. Therefore, the corrosion resistance of the magnet is improved by adding a protective layer on the surface. The principle of the protective coating is to slow down the corrosion of the magnet by preventing the corrosive medium from coming into direct contact with the substrate.
A Zn-Al coating is a new green and environment-friendly surface treatment process, and the principle is that flaky Zn powder and flaky Al powder are dissolved in an organic solvent and deionized water, a binder, a passivator and other auxiliaries are added, the mixture is uniformly stirred, the mixture is coated on the surface of a matrix, and the Zn-Al coating is formed after preheating and curing. The Zn-Al coating is not only environment-friendly, but also plays a role in physical shielding, cathode protection and passivation on the surface of the matrix. However, the problems of low hardness, poor corrosion resistance and the like of the existing Zn-Al coating for sintering neodymium iron boron still exist, and the problems need to be solved.
The invention with the publication number of CN 109439187A discloses a graphene modified chromium-free Dacromet coating, which improves the corrosion resistance and hardness of a coating by adding graphene, but cannot be produced on a large scale at present because the graphene is expensive. In the invention with the publication number of CN 106700701A, the high-temperature-resistant environment-friendly Dacromet coating and the coating are improved in high-temperature corrosion resistance and thermal shock resistance by replacing part of zinc powder with magnesium-manganese powder and replacing water with absolute ethyl alcohol, but the rapid corrosion test of ammonium nitrate is only 162min, and the corrosion resistance is poor. In the doctor's academic paper of Jiang in Nanjing aerospace university, namely the research on preparation and corrosion resistance mechanism of Zn-Al-based alloy coating based on Dacromet technology, sodium phosphomolybdate is adopted as a passivating agent, ethylene glycol is adopted as a dispersing agent, and the sodium phosphomolybdate is matched with flaky zinc-aluminum powder to prepare a chromium-free Dacromet coating, so that the defect of complex process exists.
