  • Patent number: 11078567
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for manufacturing a part made of nickel-based monocrystalline superalloy containing hafnium. This process is noteworthy in that it comprises the following successive steps consisting in: —manufacturing a nickel-based monocrystalline superalloy that is not doped with hafnium, —manufacturing a part from this superalloy, —directly depositing on said part a layer of hafnium having a thickness of between 50 nm and 800 nm, —carrying out a diffusion treatment of the hafnium so as to form an interdiffusion layer at the surface of said part and to thus obtain a part made of nickel-based monocrystalline superalloy containing hafnium.
