Abstract:
A corrosion-resistant pressure vessel steel is provided. The corrosion-resistant pressure vessel is formed by aluminization of a pressure vessel steel and deliberate oxidation of the layer which has been enriched in this way. Also provided is a process for producing a corrosion-resistant pressure vessel product. The process includes alitizing the pressure vessel steel and then oxidizing the steel before it is used for the first time. Lastly, a gas turbine component using the pressure vessel steel product is provided.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a component having a substrate and a protective layer, which consists of an intermediate NiCoCrAlY layer zone on or near the substrate and an outer layer zone which is arranged on the intermediate NiCoCrAlY layer zone, which is characterized in that the intermediate NiCoCrAlY layer zone comprises of (in wt %): 11-13% Co, 20-23% Cr, 10.2-11.5% Al, 0.3-0.5 Y, 1.0-2.5% Re and Ni balance.
Abstract:
An HS-PVD (high speed physical vapor deposition) or cold spray method for coating a substrate with a bonding agent layer is provided. This method includes generating a particle stream of a coating material, depositing the particle stream on the substrate and subjecting the substrate to a subsequent thermal treatment, wherein powder particles with a larger particle size are added to the particle stream. A device for implementing the method is also provided.
Abstract:
Known protective layers with a high Cr content form brittle phases which become even more brittle during use under the influence of carbon. The protective layer according to the invention has the composition 26% to 28% cobalt, 20% to 22% chromium, 7% to 8% aluminium, 0.5% to 0.7% yttrium and/or at least one equivalent metal from the group comprising scandium and the rare-earth elements, optionally silicon and/or rhenium and the rest made up of nickel.
Abstract:
Method for recording microstructural changes in a layer system component. A specific material parameter of the component is measured. The layer system may include an alloy substrate and an alloy or porous ceramic layer. The material parameter may be measured a plurality of times. The measured material parameter may include electrical capacitance, specific heat capacity, peltier coefficient or magnetic susceptibility. The material parameter may first be measured on a new component and subsequent measurements may be performed at a time interval after operational use. The recorded material parameter is then used to determine microstructural changes in the substrate or the layer material of the component caused by changes in precipitation, cracks, or depletion of an alloying element.
Abstract:
A system for bonding layers (1) of different chemical compositions, such as bonding a thermal barrier layer to a metal substrate on a surface of a gas turbine component. A substrate (4) made either of a ceramic material or particularly of a metal super-alloy may be bonded to an outer layer (16) such as a ceramic by means of a fine-grained intermediate layer (7) bonded to the substrate (4), and a coarse-grained layer (10) bonded to the intermediate layer (7) to create a studded surface (9). The fine and coarse layers (7, 10) provide a transition between the substrate (4) and the outer layer (16) for improved bonding between them. The studded surface (9) may provide at least a 20% increase in bonding surface area for the outer layer (16). Additionally, a medium-grained layer (13) may be applied to the studded surface (9) before applying the outer layer(16).
Abstract:
A protective layer has the composition 0.5 to 2% of rhenium, 15 to 21% of chromium, 9 to 11.5% of aluminum, 0.05 to 0.7% of yttrium and/or at least one equivalent metal from the group consisting of scandium and the rare earths, 0 to 1% of ruthenium, remainder cobalt and/or nickel and production-related impurities, and is scarcely subject to any embrittlement from Cr/Re precipitations.
Abstract:
Product having a layer which protects against corrosion, and process for producing a layer which protects against corrosion. The invention relates to a product (1), in particular a gas-turbine blade (1), having a metallic basic body (2) to which a protective layer (3, 4) for protecting against corrosion is bonded. The protective layer (3, 4) has an inner layer (3) of a first MCrAlY alloy and an outer layer (4) having a second MCrAlY alloy, which is bonded to the inner layer (3). The second MCrAlY alloy is predominantly in the &ggr;-phase. The invention also relates to a process for producing a protective layer (3, 4) in which the outer layer (4) is produced by re-melting a region of the inner layer (3) or by deposition of an MCrAlY alloy from a liquid phase.
