Definitions
- This invention relates to the art of aluminizing metal surfaces by diffusion of aluminum at high temperature into the surface portions of the metal whereby the metal is rendered more resistant to corrosion or oxidation at high temperatures and/or in corrosive atmospheres, such as in the atmosphere existing in a combustion engine, turbine, and the like.
- aluminum By the introduction of aluminum by diffusion into the surface of such metals as nickel, cobalt, and chromium alloys and high alloy steels of nickel and cobalt, heat shock erosion, corrosion resistance, and many other physical and mechanical properties of the metal are improved.
- the alloy part is heated to a temperature above 1000 C. and preferably to a temperature of about 1100 C. in a powder mixture of metallic aluminum and aluminum oxide or other inactive metal oxide, with or without a small amount of halide salt, s uch as ammonium chloride, for
- the powder aluminum is usually employed in a particle size of less than microns and the aluminum oxide is of a particle size greater than 50 microns and more often within the range of 50 to 100 microns.
- the aluminum diffuses into the surface, usually to a depth of about microns, depending somewhat upon the time and temperature of the aluminizing treatment, and the amount of aluminum in the diffusion layer will average from 1 to percent by weight, and preferably from 2 to 8 percent by weight with the concentration of aluminum decreasing from the surface inwardly toward the center whereby the amount of aluminum in the outer portion is sometimes illustrated in the nickel alloy as NiAl, while the inner portions containing the lesser concentration of aluminum can be illustrated by the formula Ni Al.
- the drawing is a diagrammatic cross-sectional view of the surface portion of a nickel-base alloy which has been aluminized in accordance with the practice of this invention.
- the fine colloidal particles of aluminum oxide diffuse with the aluminum metal into the surface of the alloys to provide aluminum oxide inclusions substantially uniformly distributed ICC through the surface portions of the metal part with most of the inclusions being concentrated in the outer portion of the diffusion coating.
- the powder mixture with at least 50 percent by weight of the aluminum oxide component and preferably substantially percent by weight of the aluminum oxide component having a particle size of 20 microns or less, and more preferably with at least 50 percent of the aluminum oxide component having a particle size of 5 microns or less.
- the fine particles of aluminum oxide are carried into the surface of the metal part 10 to deposit as aluminum oxide inclusions 12 in the diffusion layer 14, thereby to provide a diffusion layer containing from 1 to 15 percent by weight of aluminum metal 16 with inclusions 12 of aluminum oxide powder in the diffusion layer.
- the amount of such inclusions will depend upon the aluminum oxide powder particle size, the time and temperature employed in the aluminizing process and the amount of aluminum oxide powder of fine particle size in the powder mixture.
- the alloys parts are embedded in the powder and loaded into a retort in which they are maintained at 1100 C. for four to five hours. Upon removal from the retort, the parts are coated with an aluminized layer having a thickness of approximately 10 mils and containing an average of about 5 percent by weight aluminum metal and with aluminum oxide particles uniformly distributed as inclusions in the diffusion coating.
- the resulting part is characterized by good corrosion and oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 1000 C.
- Aluminum metal powder of less than 5 microns 5 Aluminum oxide of more than 50 microns 44 Aluminum oxide of less than 10 microns 50.7
- the alloy parts are packed with the aluminizing powder in a retort and heated to a temperature of 1100 C. for about four hours.
- the resulting parts will have a diffusion layer of about 2 mils in thickness containing about 5 percent by Weight of aluminum, and the diffusion layer also contains inclusions of aluminum oxide substantially uniformly distributed throughout the outer portion thereof.
- Aluminum metal powder of less than 5 microns 5 Aluminum oxide of less than 20 microns 95 The aluminizing process is substantially the same as that for Examples I and II.
- Example IV Metal alloy (Udimet 500 nickel-base alloy):
- Percent by Weight Particle Size Composition Composition Less than 325 mesh (44 microns). 100 95-100 Less than 30 microns 100 75-94 Less than 25 microns 100 66-88 Less than 20 microns 100 56-77 Less than 15 microns 100 43-66 Less than microns 96-98 28-47 Less than 8 microns. 92-95 21-41 Less than 6 microns 79-83 13-33 Less than 5 microns. 68-73 10-28 Less than 4 microns. 55-59 8-23 Less than 3 microns. 40-42 3-17 Less than 2 microns 23-27 2-11 tions A and B for fivehours at a temperature of 1975 to 2000" F. The resulting coated parts were subjected to a standard oxidation-erosion test which. may be described as follows:
- test parts having an air foil configuration and treated in accordance with Examples IV and V, were rapidly rotated and subjected to rapid heating to the test temperature of 1800 F. followed by fast cooling by means of an aspirated water spray to approximately 300 F.
- the specimens from each example were mounted together in order to uniformly expose all parts to exactly the same conditions of treatment for more accurate comparison of the resistance to the oxidation-erosion conditions. The following are the results that were obtained:
