Abstract

A spray coating film has a first spray coating film formed on a surface of an aluminum substrate and a second spray coating film formed on a surface of the first spray coating film. In the first spray coating film, an inorganic material with a layered crystalline structure is dispersed in a Ni-based alloy material, and an area ratio of the inorganic material is in a range from 40% to 80% relative to the sectional area of the first spray coating film. The second spray coating film is a porous film composed of ZrO 2 -SiO 2 based ceramic containing 30% to 50% by mass of SiO 2 , and the second spray coating film has an area ratio of pores of 30% to 80% relative to the sectional area of the second spray coating film.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A spray coating film comprising:
a first spray coating film formed on a surface of an aluminum substrate; and a second spray coating film formed on a surface of the first spray coating film, wherein, in the first spray coating film, an inorganic material with a layered crystalline structure is dispersed in a Ni-based alloy material, and an area ratio of the inorganic material is in a range of from 40% to 80% relative to a sectional area of the first spray coating film, and wherein the second spray coating film is a porous film composed of ZrO 2 —SiO 2 based ceramic containing 30% to 50% by mass of SiO 2 , and the second spray coating film has an area ratio of pores of 30% to 80% relative to a sectional area of the second spray coating film.

2 . The spray coating film according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic material with a layered crystalline structure is composed of at least one selected from a group consisting of bentonite, graphite, mica and boron nitride.

3 . An engine having the spray coating film according to claim 1 , wherein the engine has a cylinder head as the aluminum substrate, and the spray coating film is formed on a wall surface of the cylinder head that forms a combustion chamber.

4 . A film-forming method of a spray coating film having a first spray coating film formed on a surface of an aluminum substrate and a second spray coating film formed on a surface of the first spray coating film, comprising:
a step of forming the first spray coating film by spray coating a surface of the aluminum substrate with a mixed powder, obtained by mixing an inorganic powder composed of an inorganic material with a layered crystalline structure and a Ni alloy powder composed of a Ni-based alloy material, in such a manner that an area ratio of the inorganic material is in a range of from 40% to 80% relative to a sectional area of the first spray coating film; and a step of forming the second spray coating film by spray coating a surface of the first spray coating film with a ZrO 2 —SiO 2 powder composed of ZrO 2 —SiO 2 based ceramic containing 30% to 50% by mass of SiO 2 , in such a manner that the second spray coating film has an area ratio of pores of 30% to 80% relative to a sectional area of the second spray coating film.

5 . The film-forming method of a spray coating film according to claim 4 , wherein the inorganic powder is composed of at least one selected from a group consisting of bentonite, graphite, mica and boron nitride.

6 . The film-forming method of a spray coating film according to claim 4 , wherein the ZrO 2 —SiO 2 powder has an average particle size in a range from 1 to 10 μm.

7 . The film-forming method of a spray coating film according to claim 4 , wherein the ZrO 2 —SiO 2 powder is a powder obtained by granulating particles having an average particle size of 1 μm or less.

8 . The film-forming method of a spray coating film according to claim 4 , wherein the mixed powder is a granulation powder obtained by granulating inorganic particles that constitute the inorganic powder and Ni alloy particles that constitute the Ni alloy powder.

9 . A method of manufacturing an engine by using the film-forming method of a spray coating film according to claim 4 , wherein the spray coating film is formed on a wall surface of a cylinder head that forms a combustion chamber, wherein the cylinder head serves as the aluminum substrate.
