Abstract: Ceramic abradable materials, in particular thermally sprayable ceramic abradable powder materials, and abradable seals formed by thermally spraying the materials include dysprosia (Dy2O3) and zirconia (ZrO2). Coatings are porous whereby the porosity, in part, is induced by plastic or fugitive phases. Abradable seal coatings comprising dysprosia and zirconia exhibit improved thermal shock and sintering resistance and can be worn into tolerance by untreated, bare turbine blades, at least in certain regimes of relative blade speed and coating porosity. Ceramic abradable seal coatings comprising dysprosia and zirconia can be used up to 1200° C.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for treating organs subject to erosion by liquids, in particular vapour turbine components, which contemplates laser plating with a cobalt-based alloy comprising chromium from 28 to 32% by weight; tungsten from 5 to 7% by weight; silicon from 0.1 to 2% by weight; carbon from 1.2 to 1.7% by weight; nickel from 0.5 to 3% by weight; iron from 0.01 to 1% by weight; manganese from 0.01 to 1% by weight; molybdenum from 0.2 to 1% by weight; possible impurities or other elements from 0 to 0.5% by weight and cobalt the complement to 100%.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cobalt-based alloy for the coating of organs subject to erosion by liquid comprising chromium 28–32% by weight, tungsten 6–8% by weight, silicon 0.1–2% by weight, carbon 1.2–1.7% by weight, nickel 3–6% by weight, molybdenum 1–3%, cobalt the complement to 100%. The invention also relates to an application method of the alloy on organs subject to erosion by liquid, in particular vapour turbine blades, to reduce the metal erosion rate following impact with liquids.
