Abstract:
A method of imparting wear-resistance to a contact face of a turbine blade Z-notch comprising applying a flexible cladding sheet comprising a Co-based cladding alloy and an organic binder to the contact face of the Z-notch, heating the turbine blade Z-notch with flexible cladding sheet thereon to volatilize the organic binder and remove it from the cladding sheet, and further heating the turbine blade Z-notch with flexible cladding sheet thereon to sinter the cladding sheet by liquid phase sintering, thereby cladding the cladding sheet to the contact face to produce a wear-resistant layer thereon.
Abstract:
A surgical implant component comprising an implant component body manufactured from a Co-based substrate alloy comprising Co, Cr, Mo, Si, and C, and a coating on a bone-ingrowth surface of the component body manufactured from a Co-based coating alloy comprising Co, Cr, Mo, Si, C and B. The coating is a network of fused particles of the Co-based coating alloy with spherical particles, irregular aspherical particles, and between about 35 and about 70 volume % porosity. A method of manufacturing the foregoing surgical implant component.
