Abstract
A new type of Pt + Hf-modified γ′-Ni 3Al + γ-Ni-based coating has been developed in which deposition involves Pt electroplating followed by combined aluminizing and hafnizing using a pack cementation process. Cyclic oxidation testing of both Pt + Hf-modified γ′ + γ and Pt-modified β-NiAl coatings at 1150 °C (2102 °F), in air, resulted in the formation of a continuous and adherent α-Al 2O 3 scale; however, the latter developed unwanted surface undulations after thermal cycling. Type I ( i.e. 900 °C/1652 °F) and Type II ( i.e. 705 °C/1300 °F) hot corrosion behavior of the Pt + Hf-modified γ′ + γ coating were studied and compared to Pt-modified β and γ + β-CoCrAlY coatings. Both types of hot corrosion conditions were simulated by depositing Na 2SO 4 salt on the coated samples and then exposing the samples to a laboratory-based furnace rig. It was found that the Pt + Hf-modified γ′ + γ and Pt-modified β coatings exhibited superior Type II hot corrosion resistance compared to the γ + β-CoCrAlY coating; while the Pt + Hf-modified γ′ + γ and γ + β-CoCrAlY coatings showed improved Type I hot corrosion performance than the Pt-modified β.
