  • Patent number: 10851667
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to produce a metal part equipped with a protection system, particularly for turbine blades for aircraft engines, having a thermal barrier that is improved in terms of thermal properties, adhesion to the part and resistance to oxidation/corrosion. In order to achieve this, the method according to the invention produces in a single step, from specific ceramics, coating layers using SPS technology. According to one embodiment, a metal part is produced according to an SPS flash sintering method and comprises a superalloy substrate (22), a metal sub-layer (21), a TGO oxide layer (25) and the thermal barrier (23) formed by said method from at least two chemically and thermally compatible ceramic layers (2a, 2b). A first ceramic (2a), referred to as the inner ceramic, is designed to have a substantially higher expansion coefficient.

  • Patent number: 10161262
    Abstract: A method for producing a thermal barrier in a multilayered system for protecting a metal part made of superalloy, by producing a thermal treatment by flash sintering protection materials in layers superposed on the metal part in an SPS machine enclosure. The layers contain, on a superalloy substrate, at least two layers of zirconium-based refractory ceramics. A metal part is produced according to a SPS flash sintering method and contains a superalloy substrate, a metal sub-layer, a TGO oxide layer and the thermal barrier formed by the method. A first ceramic is an inner ceramic designed to have a substantially higher expansion coefficient. An outer ceramic is designed to have at least lower thermal conductivity, and at least one of a sintering temperature or maximum operating temperature that is substantially higher. The thermal barrier has a composition and porosity gradient from the metal sub-layer to the outer ceramic.
