ABSTRACT:
A bond coat process for thermal barrier coatings. The method includes, after cleaning and masking the external surface of the substrate, first applying a layer of NiCrZr alloy to the external surface of the substrate using a sputter coat or other suitable process. Aluminum is then applied to the substrate, using either a vapor phase aluminization (VPA) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process, wherein aluminum diffuses into the NiCrZr alloy layer wherein a diffusion layer is formed by the aluminum with the substrate material on the internal surface of the substrate. The coated substrate may then be subjected to a heat treatment in a protective atmosphere to further allow diffusion of the aluminide into the NiAlCrZr diffusion layer. The substantially Al outer layers of the NiAlCrZr diffusion layer, and the diffusion aluminide layer, will provide an aluminum source for the surface, which will oxidize to form a tightly adherent aluminum scale. The diffusion aluminide layer and the high Al portion of the NiAlCrZr diffusion layer will also function as a source of aluminum which will provide a reservoir to heal the alumina scale during operation.
