Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The microstructural evolution of PtAl diffusion coating on a nickel-base superalloy IN792 was studied to assess the influence of high temperature (850 °C and 950 °C) and static creep loading conditions. The chemical composition analysis by EDS reveals that local enrichment of Cr, W and Mo is responsible for the formation of σ, Cr-α and μ/R particles in the different characteristic zones in the PtAl coating. Being taken as an approach to describe the coating’s microstructure evolution, a so-called Effective Coating Thickness (ECT) is defined and was measured for different creep conditions. It is found that the value of ECT is controlled by the inward diffusion of Al and Pt, being demonstrated by the existence of a linear correlation between ECT and diffusion coefficient of Al in substrate; t: diffusion time). Simulated ECT development of the PtAl diffusion coating agrees well with the experimental results at 850 °C and 950 °C.

Creep Fracture Mechanism of Polycrystalline Ni-based Superalloy with Diffusion Coatings
- 2013

Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Diffusion coatings are widely used to increase oxidation and corrosion resistance of hot superalloy components for gas turbines. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of coatings (NiAl and PtAl) on the creep fracture mechanism of samples with a substrate of IN792. The samples have been creep tested at two temperatures (850 °C and 950 °C) and different applied tensile stresses, until failure between 205 and 21000 hrs. The observation of cross-sections by SEM shows that the microstructural evolution in the coating is dependent on the diffusion of alloying elements in the sample. Furthermore the time and temperature induced growth of the coating is found to be controlled only by inward diffusion of Al. Grain-boundary cracking is the basic fracture mode in the substrate in all samples irrespective if the crack is initiated from coating or substrate. The analysis of microstructure shows that the diffusion coatings display two types of mechanical behavior - being easily plasticized or cracked - dependent on temperature and type of coating, and therefore can be considered as non-load carrying regions. After recalculating the creep stress to exclude the final effective coating thickness from the total sample thickness, the coated samples showed similar creep rupture behavior as the uncoated samples in the Larson-Miller diagram.
