In this work, a Ni-rich Ni3A1 coating with γ＇/γ two-phase microstructure was deposited by electron beam physical vapor deposition （EB-PVD）, which worked as repairing the worn blade tips of single crystal blades. Nb molten pool was used to increase the molten pool tem- perature and thus to enhance the deposition rate. The microstructures and mechanical properties can be modified by the deposition temperatures and the following heat treatments. All coatings consist of γ＇ and γ phases. At deposition temperature of 600 ℃, a dense microstructure can be achieved to produce a coating with grain size of 1 μm and microhardness of -HV 477. After being heated for 4 h at a temperature of 1,100 ℃, the coatings have a more uniform microstructure, and microhardness maintains at a high level of -HV 292. Effect of Hf and Zr on EB-PVD Ni3Al repair coating will be further investigated.展开更多
