Microstructure and properties of YSZ thermal barier coatings deposited onto CoNiCrAlY bond coats remelted by electron beam
Slavíková, Barbora ; Jan, Vít (referee) ; Dlouhý, Ivo (advisor)
The master thesis is dealing with characterization of the structure and properties of the YSZ thermal barrier coating deposited by water hybrid plasma spray technology on the CoNiCrAlY bond coats modified by using electron beam and vacuum annealing. Deposition of the bond coats was performed via high velocity oxy-fuel technology and cold spray. In case of experimental evaluation, the microstructure and chemical composition of the ceramic top coat deposited with powder and suspension feedstock was analyzed. The same analysis procedure was used also for bond coats after electron beam remelting by using two sets of parameters. Furthermore, the changes in microstructure and chemical composition of the remelted and annealed bond coats was evaluated. Eventually, the micromechanical properties of the top coats and the bond coats were measured. The ceramic top coats deposited with powder feedstock exhibited the structure composed by splats, while the top coats deposited in form of suspension showed fine structure with columnar grains. The dendritic structure was observed on remelted bond coats. The annealing process had an influence on the structure in form of coarsened phases and the chemical composition was changed due to diffusion of the elements.

Surface Treatment Technology of Metallic Materials and its Applications using Electron Beam
Matlák, Jiří ; Dupák, Libor (referee) ; Houdková, Šárka (referee) ; Foret, Rudolf (advisor)
Fast deflection is one of the great advantages of an electron beam, making it possible to process a relatively large area at once and also to modify the distribution of the supplied energy. The dissertation deals with surface heat treatment with a focus on the effect of beam deflection on the process. Furthermore, the influence of processing speed and defocusing of the electron beam is studied. The principles of electron beam technology and the summary of surface heat treatment of various materials are presented in the literary part of the thesis. The experimental part is focused on the influence of process parameters on processing in the solid phase, carried out on steel 42CrMo4, and in in the liquid phase, carried out on alloy NiCrBSi. Especially changes in structure, hardness, shape of the processed area and wear resistance are evaluated on processed samples. The results are also evaluated from an energy perspective. Furthermore, an optimum combination of technological parameters is recommended for solid and liquid phase surface heat treatment.

Effect of modification of HVOF sprayed alloy NiCrBSi by electron beam on its structure
Pongrácz, Jakub ; Havlík, Petr (referee) ; Foret, Rudolf (advisor)
This thesis deals with surface re-melting by electron beam of thermal sprayed material NiCrBSi by method HVOF. The microstructure, chemical and phase composition, hardness and abrasive wear resistance were evaluated in depending on the electron beam parameters and modes of the electron beam 6-poinst and line. Observed microstructure was better after both methods of re-melting. The splats were not observed, coating porosity decreased and structure was more homogenous. Structure and phase analysis was acquired by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction. A small change in hardness between modes of re-melting was observed, but measured hardness was higher than in sample without re-melting. Similar results were observed for abrasion resistance.

Contrast in image acquired by ionization detector in VP SEM
Goroš, Pavel ; Čudek, Pavel (referee) ; Jirák, Josef (advisor)
This work deal with problems of investigation materials electron beam. This project is focuses on investigation materials by the help of method environmental scan electron microscopy (ESEM) and describes her patterns. The perfection of ESEM excel above all at studies non - conducting or water containing, often biological samples. These samples not to be in no way prepared or cut – and – dries, in contradistinction to classical scanning electron microscope and thanks is under investigation their native surface structure without desiccation breaking. The general aim is determination of contrast in image acquired by ionization detector.

Modification of Elektron 21 magnesium alloy microstructure via electron beam treatment
Hanáček, Josef ; Šiška, Filip (referee) ; Čížek, Jan (advisor)
This work presents a basic research on the influence of electron beam technology modification on chemical, structural and phases changes of Elektron 21 magnesium alloy. The samples were systematically modified under various parameters of the electron beam and coatings on their respective surfaces were deposited via controlled plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) subsequently. The influence of the EB modification on the PEO coating formation was observed. Several samples with remelted fine-grained surface layer were obtained. Having a thickness of 10^1 to 10^3 µm, the average grain sizes in this layer were quantitatively evaluated. The performed EDS analysis revealed in identical chemical composition of the remelted surface layer and the original alloy material, despite the detected sample weight loss upon the EB treatment. XRD analysis revealed an increased content of Mg3(Nd,Gd) intermetallic phase in the remelted area. The PEO coatings were more compact and less porous as compared with their counterpart coatings on the original, unmodified alloy material.The results of the presented work showed, among others, a suitable microstructure and chemical composition of some of the modified samples that could potentially exhibit enhanced corrosion resistance as opposed to the unmodified material. The corrosion testing will be part of a follow-up study. More compact PEO coatings formed on some of the modified surface layers likely represent, too, a more durable variant as compared to the original material.

Microstructure stability of tungsten -ODS hetergeneous welds
Adam, Ondřej ; Sonnek, Pavel (referee) ; Jan, Vít (advisor)
The thesis is focused on microstructural stability of heterogeneous weld joint of ODS steel and tungsten. The theoretical part summarizes the basic information about the structure and properties of ODS steels and describes the methods of joining these steels with tungsten. In the experimental part, materials MA956 and WL10 were welded by using electron beam. The individual samples differ by preheating temperature or use filler material. After annealing at 800 °C/1h and 1000 °C/5h, a change of the weld metal microstructure was evaluated by using scanning electron microscope. The chemical composition was measured by energy dispersive spectroscopy. It has been found that during annealing, massive precipitation of particles occures in the whole volume of the weld metal. These particles were identified as Laves phase.

Multiphase Ti-Ni layer on titanium substrate by local alloying
Husťák, Miroslav ; Havlík, Petr (referee) ; Jan, Vít (advisor)
The theory section of this thesis is to describe properties and utilisation of titanium and titanium alloys as well as to deal with various methods of surface treatment and means of alloying a titanium surface layer with nickel. The experimental chapter of this thesis is to describe the creation of a hard surface layer on titanium substrate. In order to achieve a hard surface layer, a layer of nickel was electrodeposited on substrate made of commercially pure ASTM Grade 2 titanium which was subsequently melted with the help of an electron beam. A layer with changed chemical composition and microstructure was created by applying the aforementioned method on the titanium surface. In order to achieve a homogeneous microstructure in the surface layer, several samples with the surface layer were prepared by utilising different parameters of the electron beam. The samples were later tested for their microstructural homogeneity, chemical composition, and hardness.
