Oxidation behaviour of the β-NiA1Hf coatings prepared by electron beam physical vapour deposition (EB-PVD) was investigated at 1100 ℃ for short time and 100h in 20% 02+Ar and 15 % H20 + Ar, respectively. The results of mass changes re- veal that the addition of minor reactive element Hf sig- nificantly improves the cyclic oxidation resistance of the 13- NiA1 coatings in both dry and humid atmospheres. During the initial oxidation stage, water vapour retards the phase transformation from 0-A1203 to a-A1203. Moreover, com- pared with the case in dry atmosphere, water vapour sig- nificantly reduces the surface roughness of the oxide scales formed on EB-PVD β-NiA1Hf coatings after 100 h cyclic oxidation, which corresponds with the difference of surface morphologies of the oxide scales.展开更多

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

Thermal cyclic performance of the TBCs was evaluated by flame shock testing at 1300 ℃. For comparison, the TBCs with a undoped NiAl bond coat were also studied. The microstructural evolution and failure mechanisms of the above TBCs during thermal cycling were investigated. Spallation failure of the TBCs with the undoped bond coat occurs after around 500 cycles by cracking at the interface between YSZ ceramic layer and thermally grown oxides(TGO) layer. The TBCs with Pt/Dy modified bond coat reveal improved interface bonding even after 1200 thermal cycles, whereas some delamination cracks are presented in the LCO layer. On the other hand,the Pt/Dy modified bond coat effectively suppresses the formation of the needle-like topologically closed packed phases(TCP) in the single crystal superalloy.展开更多

However, its application remains limited because of its relatively poor cyclic oxidation resistance. Addition of reactive element (RE) Dy can improve the cyclic oxidation of NiA1 alloys significantly. However, the mechanism of Dy addition is not clear. Even the existence pattern of Dy in NiA1 is unspecified. Therefore, in the present study, the impurity formation energies of Dy in stoichiometric NiA1, Ni-rich, and Al-rich NiA1 for the substitution cases were studied by first-principles density functional theory. The results show that Dy could hardly substitute for either Ni or A1 atoms in NiA1. However, calculations for dissolution energies show that Dy could be easily dissolved in AI vacancies in all three types of NiA1, which provides a new existence pattern of Dy in NiA1 beyond experimental detection.展开更多

The cyclic oxidation behavior of the coatings at 1100 °C was investigated. The microstructures of the oxide scales grown on the coatings were characterized by scanning electron microscope(SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectrum(EDX),electron probe micro-analyzer(EPMA) and X-ray diffraction(XRD). The effects of Cr and Si on the cyclic oxidation behavior of the Ni Al Hf coatings were discussed. The addition of Si to the Ni Al Hf Cr coating not only reduces the oxidation rate but also enhances the oxide scale adherence.Owing to the addition of Si in the coating, the segregation of Cr and Mo beneath the oxide scale is effectively avoided,which contributes to enhancing oxide scale adherence.展开更多
