摘要:
A nickel-based braze composition is described, containing nickel, palladium, and restricted amounts of boron and silicon. The composition can also contain tantalum, titanium, and zirconium, as well as aluminum, chromium, and cobalt. A method for joining two metal components, using the braze composition, is also described. The braze composition can also be used to fill cracks or other cavities in a component, e.g., a gas turbine part formed from a nickel-based superalloy. Articles of manufacture which contain the braze composition are also described.

摘要:
Various braze alloy compositions are described, along with methods for using them. In one instance, a boron-free, high-temperature braze alloy includes selected amounts of chromium, hafnium, and nickel. The braze alloy can be used, for example, as a component in a wide gap braze mixture where a higher or lower melting point superalloy and/or brazing powder is used. The braze alloys may permit joining or repairing of superalloy articles with complex shapes, and may be used in high temperature applications. In some other braze alloy embodiments, a nickel- or cobalt-based braze composition can contain selected amounts of boron, but includes restricted amounts of chromium.
摘要:
A refractory composition is described, containing niobium, silicon, titanium, and at least one of rhenium and ruthenium. The amount of silicon in the composition is at least about 9 atom %, and the amount of titanium present is less than about 26 atom %, based on total atomic percent. Turbine engine components formed from such a composition are also disclosed.
摘要:
A nickel-based high-temperature braze alloy composition includes Cr, Hf, and B. Furthermore, a cobalt-based high-temperature braze alloy composition includes Cr, Hf, and B. The braze alloys can be used, for example, as a single homogenous braze. The braze alloys can also be used, for example, as a component in a wide gap braze mixture where higher or lower melting point superalloy and/or brazing powder is used. The braze alloys may permit joining/repairing of superalloy articles with complex shape and may be used in high temperature applications.
摘要:
Braze compositions containing flux compositions and processes for using such braze compositions, such as for use in the manufacturing, coating, repair, and build-up of superalloy components. The braze composition contains an aqueous binder system, multiple inorganic compounds, titanium hydride, and a metallic braze alloy. The braze composition is useful when brazing superalloys that are prone to oxidation at elevated brazing temperatures.
摘要:
A process for forming a coating on a surface of a substrate, so that heating of the coating material is selective and sufficient to cause at least partial melting of the coating material and permit bonding to the substrate without excessively heating the substrate so as not to significantly degrade its properties. The process generally entails forming a brazing paste containing powder particles dispersed in a binder. The particles are formed of a composition that is susceptible to microwave radiation. The brazing paste is then applied to the surface of the substrate and subjected to microwave radiation so that the particles couple with the microwave radiation and are sufficiently heated to burn off the binder and then at least partially melt to form an at least partially molten layer on the substrate. The microwave radiation is then interrupted to allow the at least partially molten layer to cool, solidify, and form the coating.

A system and method for refurbishing forged components. The system includes an identification subsystem for identifying a forged component for refurbishment, a removal subsystem for removing portions of the forged component, and a rebuilding subsystem for rebuilding the forged component, the rebuilding subsystem including an assembly for adding a non-molten material to the forged component.

A gamma prime nickel-base superalloy and components formed therefrom that exhibit improved high-temperature dwell capabilities, including creep and hold time fatigue crack growth behavior. A particular example of a component is a powder metallurgy turbine disk of a gas turbine engine. The gamma-prime nickel-base superalloy contains, by weight, 16.0 to 30.0% cobalt, 11.5 to 15.0% chromium, 4.0 to 6.0% tantalum, 2.0 to 4.0% aluminum, 1.5 to 6.0% titanium, up to 5.0% tungsten, 1.0 to 7.0% molybdenum, up to 3.5% niobium, up to 1.0% hafnium, 0.02 to 0.20% carbon, 0.01 to 0.05% boron, 0.02 to 0.10% zirconium, the balance essentially nickel and impurities, wherein the titanium:aluminum weight ratio is 0.5 to 2.0.
