Description

United States Patent O 3,589,894 SULFIDATION RESISTANT COBALT-BASE ALLOY Milton S. Roush, Phoenix, Ariz., assignor to The Garrett Corporation No Drawing. Filed May 31, 1968, Ser. No. 744,588 Int. Cl. C22c 19/00 US. Cl. 75-171 8 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION There has been a search for some time for metal alloy compositions which are resistant to the high-temperature corrosive combustion products of gas turbines. Such deterioration referred to hereinafter as sulfidation takes place particularly in the heated sections of gas turbines WhlCh 'are exposed to gaseous combustion products of sulfur containing fuels such as fuel oils, diesel fuel, aviation gasoline and the like. The metallic parts on which deterioration by sulfidation is greatest consists of machined parts, such as gas turbine wheels and/ or blades, and nozzle vanes, which are directly exposed at high-temperatures to the sulfur containing gaseous combustion products. Sulfidation corrodes these parts especially after long exposures to the combustion gases at high temperatures thereby not only weakening the metallic structures but literally decomposing substantial portions. Such corrosion not only results in continued deterioration of the turbine engine efficiency, but in time may result in actual failure of the engine to produce sufficient thrust to be useful. This problem is especially serious under desert or salt water atmosphere conditions where the presence of alkali or alkalineearth metal salts such as sodium chloride, even in concentrations as low as 0.1 part per million, are found to catalyze the sulfidation reaction.
Although certain nickel-base alloys have been known to provide good oxidation resistance under high-temperature conditions, known cobalt-base alloys are rather poor by comparison. Addition of aluminum to a chromium containing cobalt-base alloy has been found to improve oxidation resistance. However, such compositions still do not possess satisfactory sulfidation resistance at high temperatures. On the other hand, while the presence of a small amount of scandium, lanthanum or other lanthanide series metals yields somewhat improved oxidation and sulfida tion resistance to the cobalt-base alloys, the improvement is far from the extent desired for corrosive resistant metals to be used in turbine engines. In some cases, the sulfidation resistance provided by the presence of these metals in the absence of aluminum is practically negligible.
The present invention relates to the discovery that scandium, lanthanum and other metals of the lanthanide series metals (commonly referred to as rare earth metals) in combination with chromium and aluminum yield extreme- 1y sulfidation and oxidation resistant cobalt-base alloys. This fact is further surprising since nickel-base alloys, which have nominally the same composition as the sulfidation resistant cobalt-base alloys of the invention, with the replacement of cobalt with nickel, possess sulfidation resistance which is sometimes worse than a nickel-base alloy which contains no scandium or lanthanide series metal.
Patented June 29, 1971 The superior sulfidation resistant alloys of the invention are cobalt-base alloys containing a small amount of scandium, lanthanum or lanthanide series metal, chromium and aluminum and preferably other additional metals which enhance the strength properties of the alloy. By the term cobalt-base alloy as used herein and understood in the art, is meant a metallic composition wherein the major metal present is cobalt and preferably wherein cobalt is present in a major amount. More specifically, it has found, according to the invention, that cobalt-base alloys containing from about 0.05 to about 3.0% by weight scandium, lanthanum or lanthanide series metal, at least about 5.0% chromium and from about 1.0 to 6.0% by weight aluminum possess outstanding sulfidation as well as oxidation resistance.
The metal used in small quantities as a synergistic sulfidation inhibitor with chromium and aluminum for cobaltbase alloys according to the invention consists of scandium, lanthanum or other lanthanide series metal. The metals within the scope of the lanthanide series, in addition to lanthanum, consist of cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, promethium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytter- 'bium and lutetium. The naturally occurring lanthanide series metals are preferred and accordingly promethium, being only artificially prepared, is somewhat impractical. Although available, scandium, europium, terbium, thulium and lutetium are presently of relatively high cost. In addition, it is preferred to use those metals which have melting points approaching that of cobalt. Lanthanum, cerium, europium and ytterbium have relatively low melt ing points as compared to cobalt, thereby making them somewhat more difficult to use. The more preferred metals are dysprosium and holmium because of their practical availability and melting points. Dysprosium is especially preferred in view of its outstanding performance in combination with chromium and aluminum in reducing sulfidation corrosion of the alloys of the invention.
Concentration of these metals between about 0.05 and about 3.0% is critical. The presence of less than about sulfidation resistance of the alloys at elevated temperatures. However, concentrations above of about 3.0% weight of the metallic alloy are believed to result in grain boundary segregation which causes embrittlement of the metal during hot working, hot shortness in casting and general deterioration of mechanical properties. The metals may be used in their essentially pure form, or on the other hand, may be present in mixtures available in the form of misch metals consisting of a major amount of a lanthanide series metal plus traces of carbon, aluminum, silicon, iron, copper, calcium, and the like. Specific mixtures often include cerium, neodymium, praseodyminum, samarium, lanthanum, gadolinium, dysprosium, erbium, ytterbium, etc.
The concentrations of aluminum and chromium are also somewhat critical. Amounts of aluminum below about 1% do not olfer suflicient coirosion resistance, while concentrations above about 6% are found to result in brittle alloys of questionable use. The presence of chromium in amounts of at least about 5% by weight is necessary to achieve desired sulfidation resistance. Concentrations between about 5 and about 30% are preferred with amounts between about 10 and about 25% offering both superior sulfidation resistant and high strength alloys.
Preferably, the cobalt-base alloys of the invention contain between about 50 and cobalt. In order to provide high strength cobalt-base alloysit is also necessary for the compositions to contain tungsten and/or tantalum wherein the total amount of this group of metals is between about 3 and about 20% by weight of the alloy. The preferred amounts of these metals individually are between and 15% and more preferably between about 4 and about 10% individually for tungsten and tantalum with the total amount of this group of metals being no more than about 20% by weight of the alloy composition. Alternatively, molybdenum may be present to replace all or part of the tungsten and columbium may be present to replace a part or all of the tantalum. Molybdenum, preferably, may be present up to about 10% and columbium up to about 2% by weight of the alloy. The presence of a small amount of carbon also increases the strength of the alloy. However, where the carbon content is above about 0.5% by weight, oxidation resistance is sacrificed somewhat. Suitable carbon concentrations are between about 0.05 and about 0.5% by weight.
A convenient manner of expressing the concentrations of the preferred cobalt-base alloys of the invention is by mole ratios based on cobalt. Thus, the preferred alloy compositions corresponding to the concentrations set forth above are as follows:
Metal: Metal: Co Al-l-x 1:50-1 :7 Cr 1:7-1:2.5 W, Ta, Mo, Cb 1:6-1 :3
where x is scandium, lanthanum or a lanthanide series metal.
The following examples are provided to illustrate the manner in which the invention is carried out. Unless otherwise specified, parts and percents set forth are given by weight.
Example I In order to show the sulfidation resistance of the cobaltbase alloys of the invention a number of alloys were prepared and subjected to high-temperature environments in a furnace containing an atmosphere simulating JP-S fuel combustion products with about 100 times the normal sulfur content and also containing NaCl. The test procedure was as follows:
A furnace was purged for 30 minutes with 2.0 c.f.h. N 0.072 c.f.h. CO and 0.013 c.f.h. H 8. The alloy specimens were placed in a silica retort which was in turn placed in the furnace, containing the aforementioned gases for two hours. For the following 20 hours the furnace was supplied with a mixture of 2.0 c.f.h. air, 0.072 c.f.h. CO and 0.013 c.'f.h. S0 which gases were bubbled through a 10% aqueous sodium chloride solution. Accordingly, the gaseous atmosphere within the furnace contained about 1 p.p.m. sodium chloride. During the 22 hours of the test, the temperature of the furnace was maintained at 1950 F. Following the exposure to the high temperature conditions, the alloys were cooled and cleaned and weighed to determine the weight loss caused by sulfidation corrosion. The use of two different atmospheres during the test duplicates a gas turbine engine combustion exhaust, whereupon at start up excess H 5 is present and thereafter during continuous operation S0 is present in the gaseous exhaust mixture.
The alloy compositions subjected to the severe sulfidation test set forth above consisted of a cobalt-base alloy corresponding to a well known commercially available cobalt-base alloy identified as WI-5 2, having the following analysis:
Percent C 0.5 Cb+Ta 1.8
The above alloy composition was modified by the addition of 4.5 weight percent aluminum, 0.1% scandium, lanthanum or other naturally occurring lanthanide series metals, and combinations of each of these metals with aluminum respectively. The compositions of the alloys and the sulfidation corrosion exhibited by each of the alloys is set forth in the table below.

The alloys of the invention may also contain small amounts of phosphorus and sulfur and preferably in amounts not over about 0.04%, silicon in an amount not over about 0.5% in weight. Nickel may be present in small amounts up to about 10% as well as iron and manganese in amounts up to about 2.5% in addition to small amounts of zirconium and boron. However, the absence or presence of these additional elements is not critical or necessary to the alloys of the invention.
