Abstract:
Known protective coatings having a high Cr content, as well as silicon, have brittle phases that become additionally brittle under the influence of carbon during use. A protective coating is provided. The protective coating includes the composition of 24% to 26% cobalt, 10% to 12% aluminum, 0.2% to 0.5% yttrium, 12% to 14% chromium, and the remainder nickel.
Abstract:
A method for repairing a component such as a turbine blade is provided. At the end of its operating time, the component has, for example, a depletion of aluminium in a region near the surface. The application of a repair layer is provided including particles with an increased proportion of aluminium. A subsequent heat treatment may achieve the effect of equalizing the concentration of aluminium between the repair layer and the region near the surface, and so the aluminium content required for new components is achieved again.
Abstract:
Turbine components are often shipped individually and are not shipped assembled into a turbine. To this end, the turbine blade has to be protected of external stresses and external damage. This is done by an easily removable protective coating that easily evaporates during the first operation of the newly produced or restored component, so that the protective coating does not have to be removed in an additional operational step before installation.
Abstract:
A thermal insulating ceramic layer for use on metal alloy components exposed to hostile thermal and chemical environment, such as a gas turbine. The thermal barrier coating may include cracks made by a series of steps, including subjecting at least a portion of the thermal barrier coating to a shockwave such that microcracks are formed in the thermal barrier coating without also substantially deforming the substrate.
Abstract:
A reaction control material that is Co, Cr or Ru, or an alloy having main component selected from a group consisting of Co, Cr, Ru is applied to the surface of an Ni-base superalloy before applying aluminum diffusion coating to the Ni-base superalloy. Thereby, it is possible to enhance the oxidation resistance of the Ni-base superalloy, and to control formation of a secondary reaction zone.

Abstract:
A hybrid component (30) having a cast single crystal superalloy portion (32) and an attached powder metallurgy material portion (34). The component may be a blade (30) of a gas turbine engine having a single crystal airfoil section and a powder metallurgy material root section. The powder metallurgy material may extend to form a core (36) within the airfoil section and may include cooling passages 38. The single crystal portion has a relatively simple geometry so that casting yields are optimized. The powder metallurgical portion includes the lower stressed and more complicated geometry sections of the component. A method of forming such a component includes casting the single crystal superalloy portion, then using that portion to form part of the mold for forming the powder metallurgy material portion.
Abstract:
An airfoil having a melting temperature of at least about 1500° C. and comprising a first piece and a second piece joined by a braze to the first piece. The first piece comprises one of a first niobium-based refractory metal intermetallic composite and a first-based refractory metal intermetallic composite, and the second piece comprises one of a second niobium-based refractory metal intermetallic composite and a second molybdenum-based refractory metal intermetallic composite. The braze joining the first piece to the second piece is a semi-solid braze that comprises a first component and a second component. The first component of the semi-solid braze comprises a first element and a second metallic element, wherein the first element is one of titanium, palladium, zirconium, niobium, germanium, silicon, and hafnium, and the second metallic element is a metal selected from the group consisting of titanium, palladium, zirconium, niobium, hafnium, aluminum, chromium, vanadium, platinum, gold, iron, nickel, and cobalt, the second metallic element being different from the first element. The second component has a melting temperature of at least about 1450° C. and comprises one of niobium, molybdenum, titanium, hafnium, silicon, boron, aluminum, tantalum, germanium, vanadium, tungsten, zirconium, and chromium.
