  • Patent number: 11964921
    Abstract: A method for applying a coating 1 to a surface 2 of a mullite material 3 is specified, which comprises pretreating the surface 2 of the mullite material 3 by means of a plasma-chemical process in which molecular hydrogen is excited in such a way that plasma-activated hydrogen is produced S1, and applying an aluminum oxide-containing layer 4 by means of a PVD process to the pretreated surface 2 of the mullite material 3 S2. Furthermore, a mullite material 3 with a coating and a gas turbine component with such a mullite material 3 are specified.

  • Patent number: 11867086
    Abstract: A coating composition for coating of components of a flow machine, especially a turbomachine such as a gas turbine with compressor, or of a compressor, which are exposed to the fluid stream of the flow machine or of the compressor, wherein the coating composition includes anticorrosion pigments, wherein the coating composition includes hard material particles, and wherein the coating composition is an RT-curing, UV-curing and/or thermally curing coating composition. A component of a flow machine or of a compressor has the coating composition. A method of maintaining a flow machine or a compressor uses the coating composition.

  • Publication number: 20130287961
    Abstract: A method for modifying surface charges created by contact electrification includes providing a polymer formed of a plurality of monomers each containing a functional group capable of reversibly switching between a first structure and a second structure different from the first structure, the functional group having the first structure; contact-charging the polymer with a surface such that the polymer carries a first net surface charge; and converting the first structure of the functional group to the second structure. The sequence of the contact-charging and converting steps can be switched.
