摘要:
A coating process and system suitable for use on components subjected to high temperatures. The coating system includes an overlay coating of predominantly B2 phase rhodium aluminide (RhAl) intermetallic compound containing about 25 to about 90 atomic percent rhodium, about 10 to about 60 atomic percent aluminum, optionally up to a combined total of about 25 atomic percent of one or more platinum group metals chosen from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, ruthenium, and iridium, and up to about 20 atomic percent of the base metal and alloying constituents of the substrate. The RhAl intermetallic coating may serve as an environmental coating, a diffusion barrier layer for an overlying environmental coating, or both, with or without an outer ceramic coating.

摘要:
A modified platinum group metal coating composition comprising a phase having a solid solution face-centered cubic (fcc) crystal structure, rich in platinum group materials. In order to be effective, the platinum group metal coating material was modified based on the chemical composition and chemical activity of the substrate material. The platinum group metal coating material was modified to include, in solid solution, elements of the superalloy substrate, specifically nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co). Depending on the substrate material, the modified platinum group metal coating material may not even include Ni or Co, but may be modified to include amounts of different elements that are consistent with the chemical composition of the substrate. The modified platinum metal coating material also includes aluminum (Al). The composition may include small amounts of a second phase isolated within the fcc phase matrix.
摘要:
Personal digital assistant devices are provided that query power subsystems to determine a level of battery power currently available for operating processes, and further determine a number of screen display changes that may be effected on a persistent display device at that determined level. If the determined number of screen display changes that may be effected at the determined level of available battery power fails to meet a specified minimum threshold number of images, the processing unit powers down subsystems of the personal digital assistant device and causes a highest listed image of a prioritized list of screen image instances to be displayed on the persistent display device, which persistently displays the image after a loss of power.
