摘要:
Coatings suitable for use as protective oxide-forming coatings on Nb-based substrates exposed to high temperatures and oxidative environments. The coatings contain chromium and/or molybdenum, preferably contains silicon, and optionally contains niobium, titanium, hafnium, iron, rhenium, tantalum, and/or tungsten, which in combination form multiple intermetallic phases, which in combination form one or more intermetallic phases that promote the formation of a slow-growing oxide scale. Depending on the particular coating composition, the intermetallic phases may be: a silicon-modified Cr2Nb Laves phase and optionally a chromium solid solution phase, a CrNbSi intermetallic phase, and/or an M3Si intermetallic phase where M is niobium, titanium, and/or chromium; or M5Si3, MSi2 and/or M3Si2 where M is molybdenum, niobium, titanium, chromium, hafnium, iron, rhenium, tantalum, and/or tungsten.

摘要:
A coating suitable for use as protective oxide-forming coatings on Nb-based substrates, and particularly monolithic niobium-based alloys, exposed to high temperatures and oxidative environments. The coating contains aluminum, may further contain silicon, and optionally contains niobium, titanium, hafnium, and/or chromium, which in combination form one or more intermetallic phases that promote the formation of a slow-growing oxide scale. The intermetallic phases may be M(Al,Si)3, M5(Al,Si)3, and/or M3Si5Al2 where M is niobium, titanium, hafnium, and/or chromium.
摘要:
Niobium silicide articles are described. They include a surface region enriched with at least about 25 atom % germanium, which can enhance the properties of the article. Methods for preparing these articles are described as well. According to one method, an article is formed from a niobium silicide composite material which contains a selected amount of germanium. The article is then heat-treated under conditions sufficient to increase the level of germanium in the surface region to at least about 25 atom %, based on the total composition of the surface region. In another embodiment, a germanium-containing material is applied over a niobium-silicide article, and then diffused into the surface region of the article by way of a heat treatment.

Nb—Si based alloy articles comprising a Nb—Si based alloy upon which is disposed an environmentally-resistant coating are described. They include a coating comprising at least one phase selected from the group consisting of M(Al,Si)3, M5(Al,Si)3, and M3Si5Al2, wherein M is one or more of Nb, Ti, Hf, Cr. Such coating can improve the environmental (e.g., in oxidation-promoting environments) resistance of a Nb—Si based alloy and alloy articles. Methods for preparing these articles are described as well.

摘要:
Articles that include a material that has L12-structured gamma-prime phase precipitates within a matrix phase at a concentration of at least 20% by volume are disclosed. The gamma-prime phase precipitates are less than 1 micrometer in size. The material also has A3-structured eta phase precipitates distributed within the matrix phase at a concentration in the range from about 1% to about 25% by volume. The articles may be formed by mechanically working a workpiece that has at least about 40% nickel, about 1.5% to about 8% titanium, and about 1.5% to about 4.5% aluminum. The workpiece may be worked at a temperature below a solvus temperature of the eta phase; and then heat treated at a temperature sufficient to dissolve any gamma prime phase present in the workpiece but below the solvus temperature of the eta phase.

The solvus temperature of the eta phase is higher than the solvus temperature of the gamma-prime phase. Moreover, the material has a median grain size less than 10 micrometers. The method comprises providing a workpiece, the workpiece comprising at least about 40% nickel, from about 1.5% to about 8% titanium, and from about 1.5% to about 4.5% aluminum. A weight ratio of titanium to aluminum is in the range from about 1 to about 4, and the workpiece further comprises a plurality of A3-structured ordered eta phase precipitates distributed within the matrix phase at a concentration in the range from about 1% to about 25% by volume. The method further comprises mechanically working the workpiece at a temperature below a solvus temperature of the eta phase; and heat treating the workpiece at a temperature sufficiently high to dissolve any gamma prime phase present in the workpiece but below the solvus temperature of the eta phase.
