Effect of particle size on the microstructure and consolidation behavior of nickel coating fabricated by laser shockwave sintering
Nickel powders of nominal sizes (i.e., 50 nm, 300 nm, and 2 μm) were pre-coated on copper substrates and then subjected to laser shock processing (LSP) for producing nickel coating. The shockwave consolidation behavior, microstructure, and bonding performance were investigated as a function of parti...

description | Nickel powders of nominal sizes (i.e., 50 nm, 300 nm, and 2 μm) were pre-coated on copper substrates and then subjected to laser shock processing (LSP) for producing nickel coating. The shockwave consolidation behavior, microstructure, and bonding performance were investigated as a function of particle size. Results indicated that nano-coating had better surface quality, decreased microstructural defects (pores and cracks), and higher bonding strength (approximately twice the hardness value) than its micro-counterpart. Microstructure analysis revealed that nano/submicron particles were consolidated by a mixed solid-liquid sintering behavior, whereas micron particles were consolidated only by solid-state sintering under laser shock. A mixed microstructure of nanocoating was obtained, consisting of solid-state atomic bonds between solid-state sintered particles and amorphous phases between liquid-phase sintered particles. After LSP, the cold shock characteristics of LSP could not only reduce the overall grain growth and oxidation of nano coating, but also induce fine nanocrystalline at the inter-particle interface of the micron coating by dynamic recrystallization. |
