摘要:
A bi-layer bond coating for use on metal alloy components exposed to hostile thermal and chemical environment, such as a gas turbine engine used to generate electricity and the method for applying such coatings. The preferred coatings include a bi-layer bond coat applied to the metal substrate, with both layers being applied using high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spraying. In one embodiment, bond coatings in accordance with the invention can be used in combination with a thermal barrier coating (“TBC”). However, the invention can also take other forms, such as a stand alone overlay coating. Bi-layer bond coatings in accordance with the invention consist of a dense first inner layer (such as iron, nickel or cobalt-based alloys) that provides oxidation protection to the metal substrate, and a second outer layer having controlled porosity that tends to promote roughness, mechanical compliance, and promotes adherence of the TBC. Preferably, the outer, less dense layer of the bi-layer bond coat is formed from a mixture of metallic powder and polyester to adjust and control the porosity, but without sacrificing mechanical compliance. Together, the layers enhance adherence to the substrate and improve the overall life of the coating system.

Processes locally repairing a thermal barrier coating system on a turbine component that has suffered localized spallation includes locally cleaning a spalled region with water to remove spallation from the spalled region and form a tapered profile in the existing thermal barrier coating; and locally thermally spraying a powder mixture into the cleaned localized spalled region to form a repaired thermal barrier coating. Also disclosed herein are repair processes for platforms of bucket turbine engine components.

A method for forming a protective coating on a substrate comprising, applying a bond coating to the substrate, the bond coating having a first surface roughness, ionizing an inert gas which flows into the surface of the bond coating so as to impart a second surface roughness to the bond coating greater than the first surface roughness, wherein the inert gas is ionized and caused to flow into the surface of the bond coating by a reverse polarity current supplied to an electrode which removes at least one electron from the inert gas, and applying a top coating to the bond coating. Additionally, a method for preparing a surface to receive and adhere to a coating comprising roughening the surface to create a micro-roughening network on the surface. In addition, a method of improving strain tolerance and cyclic spallation life of a protective coating.

A method facilitates assembling a stator assembly for a turbine engine. The method comprises positioning a shroud fabricated from a ceramic matrix composite material adjacent a metallic stator block, and coupling the shroud to the stator block using a coupling arrangement such that a predetermined radial clearance is defined between the shroud and a rotor assembly coupled radially inward thereof.

Disclosed herein are methods for coating metal substrates, systems therefore, and articles made therefrom. In one embodiment, the method of coating a metal substrate comprises: disposing a metallic bond coating on the metal substrate, creating ions with a reverse polarity high frequency apparatus at a frequency of greater than or equal to about 2.5 kHz, roughening the surface with the ions to a subsequent average surface roughness of greater than or equal to about 5 μm, and disposing a ceramic coating on the metallic bond coating surface. The metallic bond coating had a surface with an initial average surface roughness of less than or equal to about 1 μm.
