摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel process for producing silicon and/or aluminum containing iron alloy product as well as the material produced from same in either sheet or bulk structure form for electromagnetic circuit application. The process entails modifying an iron feedstock containing less than about 2.5 wt % silicon, aluminum or a combination thereof. The process further consists of diffusion of silicon or silicon and aluminum or aluminum into an iron feedstock by a pack diffusion or a chemical vapor deposition method in which the iron feedstock is heated to a temperature at which diffusion occurs in the presence of a pack containing silicon and/or aluminum sources, a reducing agent, a catalyst, and a filler, or in the presence of a flowing gas stream containing a volatile silicon compound. The resulting iron alloy product, which has a silicon content in the range of 0.25%--7% silicon, and an aluminum content in the range of about 0%--4% aluminum, has favorable properties for motor and transformer applications.
摘要:
A method of coating metal substrates with a protective aluminum-silicon coating comprising a mixture of (1) an Al-Si eutectic, Al-Si hypereutectic or elemental aluminum and (2) elemental silicon, the articles of manufacture provided by said coating and the method of carrying out thermal hydrocarbon processing operations where corrosion/erosion and other high temperature interactions are a problem using apparatus containing said coatings.
摘要:
Adherent, thermal shock-resistant protective coatings for nickel base super alloys are obtained by applying to the base metal a thin bond coat of an alloy of chromium aluminum and yttrium with materials selected from the group consisting of iron, cobalt, nickel and nickel-cobalt and applying thereover a continuously graded mixture of this material with a zirconia-based ceramic, the concentration of zirconia-based ceramic increasing from the bond coat to the outer layer. The zirconia ceramic may be stabilized by the addition thereto of amounts of magnesium oxide or other materials.
摘要:
A high temperature oxidation resistant alloy of MCrAlY, where M is a base metal comprising iron, cobalt, nickel or a combination thereof, is formed by laser cladding of a coating layer to a substrate.
摘要:
Protection of cast austenitic stainless steel tubes is provided against initiation of carburization by (a) cold-working the inner surfaces of said tubes to deform the surface to such a degree that upon the subsequent heat treatment of step (b) below, dissolution of the M.sub.23 C.sub.6 carbides in the deformed region is accompanied by recrystallization resulting in a refined micrograin structure in the deformed regions to a substantially uniform minimum depth of about 20 microns; and (b) heating the cold-worked inner surfaces of said tubes, for an effective amount of time, at a temperature between its recrystallization temperature and its melting temperature, in an atmosphere of which the oxygen partial pressure is at least oxidizing with respect to chromium.
摘要:
A porous preform is densified by heating while emersed in a precursor liquid. Heating is achieved by passing a current through the preform or by an induction coil immersed in the liquid. Ways to control the densification process are also described.
摘要:
A process for diffusing silicon into iron or iron alloy by heating the iron or iron alloy with silica and a suitable reducing agent in the presence of a catalyst.
摘要:
A process for the co-diffusion of aluminum and other elements into austenitic steel which includes heating the steel to a temperature at which co-diffusion occurs in the presence of a source of aluminum, a catalyst and metallic or metalloid elements having substantial solubility in ferrite (bcc phase of iron or iron alloy) so that a microstructure is formed on the steel which is a single layer composite and which includes a fine dispersion of compatible aluminide particles in a continuous ductile ferrite matrix.
