Abstract

A Ti-48Al-6Nb porous microfiltration coating was fabricated by cold gas spraying (CGS) followed by reactive sintering. The porous coating possesses a porosity of 20.0% and interconnected pore structure. The skeletons in the coating were consisted of typical γ-TiAl/α 2-Ti 3Al fully lamellar microstructure, and firmly bonded with substrate. Uniform pores in the range of 0.5-3 μm were formed, attributing to the diffusion reactions and skeletons growth during the reactive sintering process. The bending strength and gas permeability of the supported coating with a thickness of 604.4 μm, are 89.33 MPa and 5.39 × 10 - 13 m 2, respectively. The porous coating has high permeability and sufficient strength for microfiltration applications in kinds of extreme environments.
