  • Patent number: 12623277
    Abstract: A method includes coating of one or more zones of the refractory alloy part, using a treatment composition including one or more types of preceramic polymer, a solvent and one or more active fillers, and heat treating the coated refractory alloy part, the heat treatment allowing to partially convert the preceramic polymer to form a ceramic layer, the active filler forming on a surface of the refractory alloy part, one or more ternary alloys and forming a continuous layer between the surface of the refractory alloy part and the ceramic layer obtained by conversion. The heat treatment forms a continuous layer of the ternary alloy. The treatment composition includes, relative to the total weight of the treatment composition, a weight proportion of between 40% and 66% of the one or more active fillers, and an active filler/preceramic polymer weight ratio is greater than or equal to 2.

  • Patent number: 11752541
    Abstract: A process for coating a refractory alloy part is provided and includes coating an area of a refractory alloy part by means of a treatment composition including a type of preceramic polymer and a solvent, and heat treating the part coated with the treatment composition. The heat treating partially converts the preceramic polymer and forms a ceramic coating obtained by conversion, the ceramic coating protecting the refractory alloy from oxidation. The treatment composition also includes active fillers to form an alloy coating on a surface of the part by solid diffusion in addition to the ceramic coating obtained by conversion, and the alloy coating generates a protective oxide layer when subjected to oxidizing conditions.

  • Patent number: 11542586
    Abstract: A process for coating a part by chemical vapor diffusion is provided and includes placing a powder mixture in a chamber, immersing the part partially in the powder mixture, and applying a heat treatment to the part. The powder mixture includes a first component and a second component forming a gaseous compound during the heat treatment so as to allow deposition of the second component on the part. The part includes a metal refractory allow and the second component forms a solid diffusion alloy by solid diffusion with a metal species of the refractory metal alloy to generate a coating. The solid diffusion allow generates a passivating oxide layer when subjected to oxidizing conditions.

  • Publication number: 20120148764
    Abstract: A method for producing a layer of thermoelectric material with a thickness comprised between 50 ?m and 500 ?m on a substrate comprises preparing an ink comprising the thermoelectric material, a solvent and a binding polymer material, depositing a layer of ink on a substrate, heating the layer of ink to evaporate the solvent, compressing the layer and performing heat treatment to eliminate the binding polymer material. Deposition of the layer of ink is performed by pressurized spraying under conditions such that the solvent is partially evaporated before reaching the substrate.
