摘要:
An electrochemical stripping process is described that strips at least one metallic coating from a substrate. Due to the electrochemical selectivity of the disclosed process, the parent alloy is minimally affected by the electrochemical stripping process. The process comprises providing an electrolyte (3); disposing the coated articles (6) and at least one electrode (4, 5) in the electrolyte; applying a current between the electrode and the coated articles, and removing the at least one coating from the coated articles without modifying the parent alloy. The system for the electrochemical stripping process comprises an electrolyte (3); a direct current source (10); and plurality of electrodes (4, 5) from which a direct current may be directed to the article being stripped. The direct current source is capable of being connected to the coated articles and the plurality of electrodes. The system permits removal of the at least one coating from the parent alloy.

Methods of fabricating coated components (100) using multiple types of fillers are provided. One method comprises forming one or more grooves (132) in an outer surface (112) of a substrate (110). Each groove has a base (134) and extends at least partially along the outer surface. A sacrificial filler (32) is deposited within the groove(s), a second filler (33) is deposited over the sacrificial filler (32), and a coating (150) is disposed over at least a portion of the outer surface and over the second filler. The method further includes removing the sacrificial filler and at least partially removing the second filler from the groove(s), to define one or more channels (130) for cooling the component.

Systems and methods for recovery of rare-earth constituents from environmental barrier coatings (EBCs) are provided. One method includes for separating rare-earth (RE) containing constituents from a particulate feedstock containing a mixture of RE silicates and non-magnetic constituents includes disposing a collection member in a vicinity of the feedstock and magnetizing the collection member to generate a magnetic field sufficient to selectively attract the RE silicates to the collection member. The method further includes removing the RE silicates from the collection member.

The present invention provides a method of making a flanged metal article. The method comprises (a) applying a first braze compound to a first portion of a metal article; (b) winding the first portion of a metal article with a length of a constraining metal member; and (c) heating an assembly of the metal article, the constraining metal member, and the first braze compound to a temperature above the solidus temperature of the first braze compound, typically a temperature in a range from about 300°C to about 2500°C, to provide a flanged metal article, wherein the metal article has a coefficient of thermal expansion CTE 1, the constraining metal member has a coefficient of thermal expansion CTE 2, and CTE 1 is greater than CTE 2. The invention further provides a metal flange, which minimizes thermal expansion mismatch between a high expansion metal and a low expansion brittle material.
