Abstract

The effect of metal coatings and coverings on wetting of substrates by In, Sn, Pb in vacuum 1—2•10-3 Pa in the temperature range 400—700 C was studied by the sessile drop method using the capillary purification method of melt. Substrates of hot-polished basalt material, MPG-6 graphite, composite materials based on high-modulus carbon fibers, tapes and fabrics used. Vanadium, niobium, copper and nickel metals were chosen for the coatings, which were sprayed on the materials by electron beam evaporation of metals in vacuum, and titanium, nickel powders for the coatings were used. The nature of the wetting angle dependence on the film thickness is a linear decrease in the angle with increasing film thickness. Studies have shown the possibility of using double films V—Cu, V—Ni for the manufacture of composite materials from basalt fibers.Wetting the vanadium and niobium coatings on surface of the basalt material at by lead, tin and indium improves with increasing film thickness and experimental temperature. The nature of the contact angle–coating thickness dependences for all studied systems is the same: the angle value decreases linearly with increasing film thickness from the angle wetting of the basalt surface to the wetting angle of the compact metal film (V, Nb). The coating thickness, when the contact angle wetting for all adhesive-active metals with high oxygen affinity does not change, is close, and for vanadium is 200•10-10 m, for niobium about 100•10-10 m. Studies have shown the possibility of using double V—Cu and Nb—Cu films for the manufacture of composite materials from basalt fibers and matrix metal. Keywords: contact angle wetting, metal coatings and covering, basalt and carbon materials, low-melting metals.
