In this work, a novel HVOAF process fueled with ethanol was employed to prepare NiCoCrAlYTa coatings on AISI 304 stainless steel substrate. To be able to add compressed air into the torch, it was designed to add a second-stage combustion chamber. Thereafter, investigations were carried out to determine the influence of different compressed air flow rates on the evolution of the microstructure and properties of the resulting NiCoCrAlYTa coatings. The phase composition, microstructure, porosity, microhardness, bond strength and wear resistance of the as-sprayed coatings have been studied in detail. The results reveal that the compressed air flow rate has a substantial effect on the coating's microstructure. The addition of compressed air also contributes to reduce the degree of oxidation of the coating, which could be attributable to a decrease in the temperature of the flying particles and an increase in their velocity. Although the use of compressed air diminishes the coating's bonding strength, it still has some elevated strength. Furthermore, the injection of compressed air improves the coating's sliding wear resistance dramatically. SEM and EDS were used to investigate the sliding wear mechanism of the coating. Detailed correlation between the compressed air flow rates and the coating properties are elaborated to identify the coatings exhibiting optimum performances.

The piezoresistivity of flame-sprayed NiCoCrAlTaY on an electrically insulated surface of a steel substrate was investigated through cyclic extension and compression cycles between 0 and 0.4 mm for 1000 cycles and uniaxial tensile test. The sprayed NiCoCrAlTaY was in grid form with grid thickness of 3 mm and grid length of 30 mm while the electrical insulation was fabricated by flame spraying alumina on the surface of the steel. During mechanical loading, instantaneous electrical resistance measurements were conducted to evaluate the corresponding relative resistance change. Images of the loaded samples were captured for strain calculations through Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique. After consolidation of the pores within the coating, the behavior of the flame-sprayed NiCoCrAlTaY was consistent and linear within the cyclic compression and extension limits, with strain values of approximately -1000 με and +1700 με, respectively. The coating had a consistent and steady maximum relative resistance change of approximately 5% within both limits. The tensile test revealed that the coating has two gauge factors due to the bi-linearity of the plot of relative resistance change against strain. The progression of damage within the coating layers was analyzed from its piezoresistive response and through back-scattered scanning electron microscopy images. Based on the results, the nickel alloy showed high piezoresistive sensitivity for the duration of the loading cycles, with little or no damage to the coating layers. These results suggest that the flame-sprayed nickel alloy coating has great potential as a surface damage detection sensor.

MCrAlX powder compositions (M=Ni, Co and X=Y, Hf, Si or combination) are often thermally sprayed (TS) via vacuum plasma spray (VPS), low pressure plasma spray (LPPS) or high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) to produce high temperature oxidation and hot corrosion resistant bond coats (BC) for thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). Cold spray (CS) technology is currently considered as a promising alternative to the traditional TS solutions having the advantage of delivering oxide-free and very dense metallic coatings at relatively lower costs compared to VPS and LPPS. Here, we first present high-pressure CS deposition of NiCoCrAlY and NiCoCrAlYHfSi and discuss the influence of feedstock properties on the deposited BCs. CFD numerical simulation is employed to tailor the spray conditions based on the feedstock characteristics. Secondly, we present the laser assisted cold spray (LACS) deposition of NiCoCrAlYHfSi BCs using a low-pressure CS system. We show that LACS can be successfully used to deposit this particular powder while eliminating nozzle erosion and low deposition efficiency disadvantages observed during conventional CS. Lastly, high temperature isothermal oxidation of a TBC architecture having LACS BC is presented.

The hot-section components of modern gas turbines (e.g., turbine blades and vanes) are typically manufactured from Ni-base superalloys. To develop the γ/γ' microstructure that imparts superior thermomechanical and creep properties, Ni-base superalloys usually require three distinct heat treatments: first a solution heat treatment, followed by primary aging, and finally secondary aging. To achieve oxidation resistance, MCrAlY coatings are applied on the superalloy components as either environmental coatings or bond coats for thermal barrier coatings. In this study, the effects of different processing sequences on MCrAlY coating characteristics and short-term isothermal oxidation performance were investigated. Specifically, cold spray deposition of NiCoCrAlTaY coatings was carried out on single-crystal Ni-base superalloy substrates that underwent various degrees of the full heat treatments prior to being coated. The remaining required heat treatments for the superalloy substrates were then performed on the coated samples after the cold spray deposition. The microstructures of the CMSX-4 substrates and NiCoCrAlTaY coatings were characterized after each heat treatment. Isothermal oxidation performance of the coated samples prepared using different sequences was evaluated at 1100°C for 2 hours. The results suggested a promising procedure of performing only solution heat treatment on the superalloy substrate before coating deposition and then primary aging and secondary aging on the coated samples. This processing sequence could potentially improve the oxidation performance of MCrAlY coatings, as the aging processes can be used to effectively homogenize coating microstructure and promote a thin thermally grown oxide (TGO) scale prior to actual isothermal oxidation.

As a critical technology, thermal barrier coatings (TBC) have been used in both aero engines and industrial gas turbines for a few decades, however, the most commonly used MCrAlY bond coats which control air plasma sprayed (APS) TBC lifetime are still deposited by the powders developed in 1980s. This motivates a reconsideration of development of MCrAlY at a fundamental level to understand why the huge efforts in the past three decades has so little impact on industrial application of MCrAlY alloys. Detailed examination of crack trajectories of thermally cycled samples and statistic image analyses of fracture surface of APS TBCs confirmed that APS TBCs predominately fails in top coat. Cracks initiate and propagate along splat boundaries next to interface area. TBC lifetime can be increased by either increasing top coat fracture strength (strain tolerance) or reducing the tensile stress in top coat or both. By focusing on the reduction of tensile stress in top coats, three new bond coat alloys have been designed and developed, and the significant progress in TBC lifetime have been achieved by using new alloys. Extremely high thermal cycle lifetime is attributed to the unique properties of new alloys, such as remarkably lower coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and weight fraction of β phase, absence of mixed / spinel oxides, and TGO self repair ability, which cannot be achieved by the existed MCrAlY alloys.

In this paper, a diffusion kinetic model was applied to simulate the microstructure development in a MCrAlY-superalloy system at high temperatures. Both simulation and experimental results showed that γ+γ’ microstructure was obtained in the coatings due to Al depletion after oxidation. With the help of the modelling, the mechanism of the formation of the diffusion zones in the single crystal (SC) superalloy can be also analyzed. The results revealed that the inward diffusion of Al from coating affected the depth of secondary reaction zone (SRZ) with the precipitation of TCP phases while the depth of inter-diffusion zone (IDZ) was decided by the inward diffusion of Cr.

Boundary layers on surfaces will change from laminar to turbulent flow after a critical length. Due to the differing heat transfer coefficients of laminar and turbulent flow, the point of transition can be detected by heating the surface and measuring surface temperature by thermographic imaging. Locating the transition point is crucial for the aerodynamic optimization of components. In this study, fiber reinforced polymer composites (FRPCs) were chosen as the test substrate. Experiments were conducted using the flame spray process and NiCrAlY coatings. Multilayered coatings consisting of an aluminum bond coat, a layer of alumina as electrical insulation, and a heating layer of titania were fabricated by atmospheric plasma spraying. Free-flight tests were conducted with a functionalized winglet in order to assess the ability of thermally-sprayed heating elements to detect the location of transition of the flow regime. The results showed that the thermally-sprayed elements heat surfaces uniformly, with sufficient radiation losses for thermographic imaging. It was also shown that the change in temperature at the point of transition was readily observable using thermography.

This study investigates how Al and Ta diffusion affects the growth of surface oxides in NiCoCrAlYTa coatings and the interdiffusion that occurs between coatings and single-crystal substrates in high-temperature oxidation processes. HVOF-sprayed layers were tested at temperatures between 900 °C and 1100 °C and the corresponding oxidation behavior of Al and Ta was assessed. It was found that higher amounts of Al in MCrAlY coatings promote the selective oxidation of Al 2 O 3 and that the addition of Ta increases the stability of the γ’-Ni 3 (Al,Ta) phase.

This paper is the second part of a study on how Al and Ta diffusion affects the oxidation of NiCoCrAlYTa coatings. Thermodynamic and diffusion simulations of the coatings with different additions of Al and Ta predicted the development of a typical γ, γ’, ß-phase microstructure and suggested that the ß-NiAl phase was depleted as Al diffused into the substrate. The simulations also indicated that Ta could diffuse back to γ’-Ni 3 (Al,Ta) phase in the substrate with a γ’ depletion due to inward diffusion of Co and Cr from the HVOF-sprayed deposit. How this process impacts microstructure development is discussed in detail.

In this study, nitrogen is employed rather than helium to cold spray MCrAlY coatings at relatively low process settings. Recycling of the non-deposited particles during the spray is also explored, and the characteristics and cold sprayability of recycled powder are compared with that of as-received feedstock powder. The resulting MCrAlY coatings from the two powders, though different thicknesses, show similar dense microstructures, low oxide inclusion, and smooth surface finish, all of which contribute to improved oxidation behavior.

This study assesses the viability of using nitrogen instead of helium to cold spray NiCoCrAlTaY coatings onto single-crystal superalloy substrates. The process, though feasible, has a low deposition efficiency, leading to a high level of deformation that affects the microstructure of both the coating and substrate. SEM and TEM analysis revealed metallurgical and mechanical bonding at the interface and grain refinement in the coating. A fine grain structure that developed in the substrate after deposition was also observed possibly caused by dynamic recrystallization during the deposition process. Evidence of element segregation in the substrate, identifiable as zones with a deformed γ/γ’ structure, was found as well.

This study evaluates the hot corrosion behavior of NiCoCrAlY, NiCoCrAlYHfSi, NiCoCrAlTaReY, and CoCrAlYTaCSi coatings on 1.4923 stainless steel, applied by high-pressure HVOF spraying. All coatings were cycled in in an environment of Na 2 SO 4 and 82% Fe 2 (SO 4 ) 3 at 690 °C. Each cycle consisted of 1 h of heating in a silicon carbide tube furnace followed by 20 min of cooling. Weight change measurements were performed after each cycle to track corrosion kinetics, and SEM and EDS analysis were employed to analyze the corrosion mechanism. CoCrAlYTaCSi showed the best corrosion resistance of the coatings tested.

Corrosion resistance of coatings deposited by thermal spraying technology HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel) requires high density in coating and good adhesion to substrate material. The majority of thermally sprayed materials meet the requirements of high corrosion resistance in terms of their composition. However, porous structure raises doubts about the performance of thermally sprayed coatings regarding sufficient protection to the base material. In fact, corrosion protection is a basic coating function. However, , no sufficient attention has been dedicated to the issue of component protection against corrosion attack using HVOF sprayed coatings. In this study, NiCoCrAlY, NiCoCrAlTaReY, NiCoCrAlYHfSi, and CoCrAlYTaCSi coatings were deposited on the substrate material 1.4923. The coatings were deposited using HP/HVOF (High Pressure / High Velocity Oxygen Fuel) thermal spraying technology. The coatings were exposed to the corrosive-aggressive environment in the form of molten salts mixture with composition of 60 % V 2 O 5 and 40 % Na 2 SO 4 at the selected temperature of 750 °C. Further, all coatings were exposed to cyclic conditions. Weight changes of individual specimens were measured after every cycle and results were recorded in diagrams. After the corrosion test, all evaluated coatings were analyzed using scanning electron microscope (SEM), analysis of elemental composition (EDS) and X-Ray diffraction. The NiCoCrAlY and NiCoCrAlTaReY coatings showed the best corrosion protection in selected corrosive aggressive environment, forming the protective oxide layer that prevented further corrosion attack. On the contrary, NiCoCrAlYHfSi and CoCrAlYTaCSi coatings were found not to be suitable for corrosion protection of components working in selected corrosive environment.

NiCoCrAlY coatings are widely used as bond coats for ceramic thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) and oxidation and corrosion protective overlay coatings in industrial gas turbines. High temperature oxidation behaviour of NiCoCrAlYs has a great influence on the coating performance and lifetime of TBCs. A promising route to decrease the oxidation rate of such coatings is post-coating surface modification which can facilitate formation of a uniform alumina scale with a considerably slower growth rate compared to the as-sprayed coatings. In this work, the effect of surface treatment by means of shot peening and laser surface melting (LSM) on the oxidation resistance of high velocity air-fuel (HVAF) sprayed NiCoCrAlY coatings was studied. Isothermal oxidation was carried out at 1000 °C for 1000h. Results showed that the rough surface of as-sprayed HVAF sprayed coatings was significantly changed after shot peening and LSM treatment, with a compact and smooth appearance. After the exposure, the oxide scales formed on surface-treated NiCoCrAlY coatings showed different morphology and growth rate compared to those formed on as-sprayed coating surface. The oxidation behaviour of surface treated HVAF-sprayed NiCoCrAlY coatings were revealed and discussed.

Depending on the size and type defects of nickel-based alloy turbine blades two procedures are used mainly: cladding and high temperature brazing. The repair brazing of turbine blades is used to regenerate cracks and surface defects and is the focus of this work. In this contribution a two stage hybrid repair brazing process is presented which allows reducing the current process chain for repair brazing turbine blades. In the first stage of this process the filler metal (NiCrSi) then the hot gas corrosion protective coating (NiCoCrAlY) and finally the aluminium are applied in this order by atmospheric plasma spraying. In the second stage of this hybrid technology the applied coating system undergoes a heat treatment in which brazing and aluminising are combined. The temperature-time regime has an influence on the microstructure of the coating which is investigated in this work.

Development of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) manufactured by suspension plasma spraying (SPS) is of high commercial interest as SPS has been shown capable to produce columnar microstructures similar to the conventionally used electron beam – physical vapour deposition (EB-PVD) process. Moreover, SPS is a significantly cheaper process and can also produce more porous coatings than EB-PVD. However, lifetime of SPS coatings needs to be improved further for them to be applicable in commercial applications. The bondcoat microstructure as well as topcoat-bondcoat interface topography affect the TBC lifetime significantly. The objective of this work was to investigate the feasibility of different bondcoat deposition process for SPS TBCs. In this work, a NiCoCrAlY bondcoat deposited by high velocity air fuel (HVAF) was compared to commercial NiCoCrAlY and PtAl bondcoats. All bondcoat variations were prepared with and without grit blasting the bondcoat surface. SPS was used to deposit the topcoats on all samples using the same spray parameters. Lifetime of these samples was examined by thermal cyclic fatigue and thermal shock testing. The effect of bondcoat deposition process and interface topography on lifetime in each case has been discussed. The results show that HVAF could be a suitable process for bondcoat deposition in SPS TBCs.

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) consisting of a MCrAlY bond coat and a YSZ topcoat were air plasma sprayed onto Hastelloy X substrates. Samples were thermally cycled between 100 °C and 1100 °C and thermal fatigue failures were investigated via microstructure analyses. Final fatigue failure was caused by the formation of interface-parallel cracks in the topcoat, which was found to strongly related to the oxidation behavior of the bond coat. The development of oxide layers was therefore studied in detail and a thermo-kinetic model was used to explore the role of elemental diffusion in oxide formation.

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are well suited for use in high-temperature environments due to their combination of strength, ductility, thermal stability, and corrosion and wear resistance. In this study, NiCoCrAlSi-based HEA coatings are deposited by HVOF and air plasma spraying (APS) and their phases, microstructure, and composition are evaluated by means of XRD, SEM, and EDS analysis. The results show that BCC/B2 phases are the main constituent in HVOF coatings that were diffusion heat treated. APS coatings of the same composition, on the other hand, exhibited a two-phase structure consisting of L12 and BCC/B2 phases. The HEA coatings produced by HVOF were tested for oxidation resistance and their morphology and oxide scales were examined with the aim of developing a high-quality bond coat for thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems.

This study evaluates the effect of Ru and Ce on the oxidation behavior of NiCoCrAl coatings deposited by HVOF spraying. Isothermal oxidation tests were conducted at 900, 1000, and 1100 °C. Test samples were also cycled between 100 °C and 1100 °C, with a dwell time of 1 h at 1100 °C. In both cases, coatings with Ru had a lower oxidation rate than those with Ce additions. β-depletion due to interdiffusion was also found to be lower when Ru was present. To help explain the findings, simulation results are presented and discussed along with observations on the influence of oxidation time on microstructure evolution.

In this study, dense multicomponent NiCoCrAlTaY bond coats and feather-structured YSZ topcoats are deposited on DZ40M alloy vane surfaces by the PS-PVD method. Based on thickness measurements and microstructure examination, it is shown that the double vane surface was completely covered by both layers. The thickest portion of the coating was found close to the leading and trailing edges of the vane. The results show that it is possible to manufacture TBCs, including the bond coat and topcoat, on first-stage turbine blades by a single PS-PVD process.
