  • Patent number: 4615864
    Abstract: Coatings for iron-, nickel- and cobalt-base superalloys. The coatings are applied in order to provide good oxidation and/or sulfidation and thermal fatigue resistance for the substrates to which the coatings are applied. The coatings consist essentially of, by weight, 10 to 50% chromium, 3 to 15% aluminum, 0.1 to 10% manganese, up to 8% tantalum, up to 5% tungsten, up to 5% reactive metal from the group consisting of lanthanum, yttrium and other rare earth elements, up to 5 percent of rare earth and/or refractory metal oxide particles, up to 12% silicon, up to 10% hafnium, and the balance selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt and iron, and combinations thereof. Additions of titanium up to 5% and noble metals up to 15% are also contemplated.

  • Patent number: 4606887
    Abstract: As replacements for noble metal containing alloys fused to porcelain in dental prosthetics there are needed alloys based on cobalt-chromium-tungsten which have a hardness of less than 300 (HV 5), can be veneered faced with known dental ceramics without problems and can be worked without problem with the customary working techniques. Such alloys contain in addition to 42-69.5 weight % cobalt, 10-35 weight % chromium, and 5-25 weight % tungsten, 2-10 weight % iron, 1-4 weight % aluminum, 0-5 weight % rhenium, and 0-2 weight % titanium, whereby the sum of the content oc chromium, tungsten, and rhenium is between 27.5 and 45 weight % and the sum of aluminum and titanium is below 5 weight %.

  • Patent number: 4530885
    Abstract: An alloy having the nominal composition Ni--30/40 wt % Cr--1/5 wt % Ti--2/8 wt % Al is used for coating gas turbine components to give protection against oxidation--and sulphidation--corrosion. A specific alloy having the composition Ni--37 Cr--3 Ti--2Al is applied to a blade fabricated from a nickel superalloy by sputter ion plating to give an overlay coating up to 100 .mu.m thick. Preferably a platinum intermediate layer is flashed on to the substrate before coating. The coating alloy can additionally include rare earths, hafnium or silicon.
