Abstract
The preparation of glass-lined coating mould from gels in the ternary system of SiO 2–ZrO 2–B 2O 3 has been investigated. The crystallization characterization and high temperature structure stability of this coating mould are demonstrated. We can find that the crystallization of t-ZrO 2 as well as the tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation are, respectively, retarded and impeded owing to the encasement of SiO 2 matrix. While the inhibitive effect of B 2O 3 on crystallization of the SiO 2–ZrO 2–B 2O 3 coating mould is explained. Finally, DD3 single crystal superalloy melt can realize highly undercooled rapid solidification by adopting this coating mould, which further evinces that SiO 2–ZrO 2–B 2O 3 coating mould has an ideal nucleation inhibition for superalloy.
