Abstract:
A method for depositing a metal layer on a component is provided. The method includes applying an electrically conductive coating composition including a resin and metal particles on a coating region of the component; at least partially curing the resin forming an electrically conductive coating; and depositing, via an electrodeposition process, a metal layer on the electrically conductive coating.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to composite nanoparticles comprising a metal, a rare earth element, and, optionally, a complexing ligand. The invention is also directed to composite nanoparticles having a core-shell structure and to processes for preparation of composite nanoparticles of the invention.
Abstract:
A mixer assembly for a gas turbine engine. The mixer assembly includes a housing and a fuel injection port. The housing has a passage formed therein, and the housing includes a passage wall facing the passage. The fuel injection port is fluidly connected to a fuel source and is configured to inject a hydrocarbon fuel into the passage. At least a portion of the passage wall is a coated passage wall. The coated passage wall is (i) coated with a layer of a catalytic metal and (ii) located downstream of the fuel injection port.
Abstract:
A method for depositing a metal layer on a component includes applying an electrically conductive coating composition comprising a resin and metal particles on a coating region of the component and partially curing the resin to a gel state to form an electrically conductive coating. The method also includes applying additional metal particles to the partially cured resin in the gel state and depositing, via an electrodeposition process, a metal layer on the electrically conductive coating.
