  • SHROUD ABRADABLE COATINGS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING
    Publication number: 20150354394
    Abstract: Methods of manufacturing turbine shrouds with an abradable coating that balance the apparently contradictory requirements of high flowpath solidity, low blade tip wear, and good durability in service may include forming an abradable coating on a surface of a coating system to form a substantially smooth flowpath surface. Forming the abradable coating includes forming a relatively porous, smooth abradable coating. The methods may also include machining the abradable so as to achieve a substantially smooth flowpath surface.
