Abstract: This disclosure generally relates to coating compositions comprising chromium and aluminum and coatings formed using the same, and more particularly to bond coat compositions and coatings for use in various gas turbine applications. In one aspect, a material composition comprises M, Cr, and Al, wherein M is one or more of Ni, Co, and Fe. The material composition is configured to form a BCC ordered phase and a disordered metallic phase of either a BCC or FCC crystal structure.

Abstract: The disclosure relates generally to tungsten carbide particles, and more particularly to textured spheroidal tungsten carbides, composites formed thereof, and methods of applying the composites. In one aspect, a powder blend comprises fused tungsten carbide particles. The fused tungsten carbide particles have a spheroidal or substantially spherical shape having ratio of a first length along a major axis to second length along a minor axis that is 1.20 or lower. The fused tungsten carbide particles have a surface that is textured to have a grain boundary area fraction greater than 5.0%.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of alloys configured to form a coating with two contrasting physical behaviors: 1) reduced hardness with the end result of an easily machinable coating and 2) high abrasion resistance. Generally low hardness will result in low abrasion resistance. However, embodiments of the alloys described herein are able to maintain a low hardness while exhibiting higher abrasion resistance.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a non-magnetic iron-based alloy. The alloy can contain high hard phase fractions providing for significant toughness and wear resistance. The alloy can have high austenite content and high toughness in some embodiments. Further, embodiments of the alloy can include a number of large or extremely hard particles.
