Abstract:

Purpose:
In this study, grey cast iron was aluminized by hot-dip coating with AlSi11 alloy. The microstructure and chemical composition of the coatings were analyzed to determine the effect of the bath temperature on the thickness of the coating.
Design/methodology/approach:
Flake graphite cast iron was aluminized by hot-dipping in AlSi11 alloy at 700°C or 750°C for 20 min. The microstructure and phase composition of the coatings were determined by means of an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope with an EDS X-ray analyzer.
Findings:
It was found that the overall thickness of a coating was dependent on the temperature of the bath. The coatings consisted of an outer layer with the composition similar to the aluminizing bath and an inner intermetallic layer and dispersed graphite. The outer layer was much thicker for coatings fabricated at a temperature of 750°C. The thickness of the inner layer was similar for both bath temperatures. The inner layer was composed of two zones: the Al5Fe2 phase, adjacent to the cast iron substrate and the Al5FeSi phase, adjacent to the Al-Si outer layer. The interface between the layer of the Al5Fe2 intermetallic phases and the substrate showed flat morphology. The Al5FeSiphase-outer layer interface was irregular.
Practical limitations/implications:
The results obtained through the investigations show that the temperature of the Al-Si bath has influence on the overall thickness of the coating. The thickness of the outer layer increases with an increase in the bath temperature.
The thickness of the inner layer, however, is not affected by the bath temperature.
Originality/value:
Coatings produced by hot-dipping in pure aluminium are characterized by a microstructure with a relatively thick inner layer of intermetallic phases.
