Practical guidelines for the fabrication of duplex stainless steelsFerRy P. RAzi
This document provides a summary of the history and development of duplex stainless steels. It describes how the first duplex grades were developed in the 1930s to address issues with austenitic stainless steels. The invention of argon oxygen decarburization in 1968 allowed for nitrogen alloying, which improved weld zone properties. This led to the second generation of duplex grades in the late 1970s, with grade 2205 becoming widely used. Modern duplex grades are divided into categories based on their alloy content and corrosion performance.
The document discusses different types of ferrous metals including pure iron, wrought iron, cast iron, steel, and their variations. Pure iron and wrought iron have low carbon contents (<0.05%) while cast iron has higher carbon levels (2-4%). Steel can range widely in carbon from 0.001-1.5% which gives it a variety of properties depending on carbon level, processing techniques like heat treatment and alloying.
This document describes improvements to the carbonylation process of producing oxygenated organic compounds from olefinic compounds using carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and a carbonylation catalyst.

Steel is strong but susceptible to corrosion from oxidation. The chemical process of oxidation erodes steel particles and turns them into iron oxides. Galvanization is a standard technique to protect steel from corrosion by coating its surface with a layer of zinc, which undergoes slow oxidation to prevent oxygen from reaching the steel underneath. There are two types of galvanization - electroplating utilizes electricity to bind zinc while hot dipping quickly dips steel in molten zinc to create a thicker, stronger bond.

Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) are coatings applied to gas turbine engine components to increase their high-temperature capability. TBCs typically have four layers: a superalloy substrate, bond coat, thermally grown oxide layer, and yttria-stabilized zirconia ceramic topcoat. TBCs allow gas turbine blades to operate at temperatures up to 1500°C, significantly increasing engine efficiency. However, TBCs can fail over time due to thermal expansion mismatches and oxidation of the bond coat, reducing the operating life of coated components.
Effect of welding process on dilution of nickel base hardfacing alloys C.R. D...RAMASUBBU VELAYUTHAM
1. The study examined the effect of welding process on dilution of nickel-base hardfacing alloys deposited on 316L(N) stainless steel substrates.
2. Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) resulted in a dilution zone width of ~2.0 mm, while plasma transferred arc welding (PTAW) reduced this to <0.5 mm. GTAW deposits showed variation in microstructure and hardness with dilution, while PTAW deposits were more uniform.
3. Stress relieving heat treatment had little effect on hardness or microstructure of the deposits. The welding process significantly affected dilution and properties near the substrate interface.
This document summarizes experience with different materials used for boiler tubes in waste-to-energy plants. Alloy 625 weld overlay has been widely used for waterwall tubes with good success. A new alloy, Alloy 50, shows potential to outperform Alloy 625 as a weld overlay based on laboratory and field testing, as it exhibits lower corrosion rates and is less prone to cracking during welding. For superheaters, Alloy 825 solid tubing and Alloy 625 weld overlay are commonly used, but Alloy 45 shows potential to significantly increase tube life based on field testing in Europe. The optimal material depends on the specific plant conditions and economics.
Effect of Annealing on Erosion Behavior of Atmospheric Plasma Spray and High ...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on the effect of annealing on the erosion behavior of tungsten carbide-chromium carbide-nickel coatings applied via atmospheric plasma spray (APS) and high-velocity oxy-fuel spray (HVOF). Samples were annealed at 550 degrees Celsius and tested for erosion resistance at 450-575 degrees using alumina powder. Results showed that both coatings exhibited improved hardness after annealing, with HVOF showing greater hardness gains and wear resistance than APS. HVOF coatings also demonstrated superior erosion performance compared to APS coatings and uncoated steel substrates across all test conditions due to retaining a higher percentage of hard carbides at elevated temperatures.
The document describes a study that prepared porous alumina ceramics as supports for hydrogen gas separation membranes. Four formulations of alumina, polyvinyl alcohol, and magnesium nitrate were used to create 18 porous alumina supports. The supports were characterized by measuring their fired weight, soaked weight, suspended weight, porosity, water absorption, and bulk density. An analysis of variance test was used to determine if properties differed significantly between formulations.
This document describes a method for repairing aluminide coatings on turbine engine components. The method involves depositing a thin layer of elemental metal, such as nickel or cobalt, onto the component substrate before applying a new aluminide coating. This prevents additional consumption of the substrate material during coating formation and repair. It allows multiple repair cycles without reducing the component thickness below minimum requirements. The deposited metal layer facilitates formation of a pure aluminide coating without contribution of alloying elements from the substrate composition.
This chapter discusses materials commonly used for mechanical shaft seal parts, including seal faces. Carbon graphite is widely used as a seal face material due to its low friction properties. Other common seal face materials include impregnated carbon graphite, alumina, tungsten carbide, silicon carbide, and diamond coatings. The properties, advantages, and limitations of each material are described. Tests are also conducted to evaluate seals using different material pairings.

ALPHAALUMNA PROTECTIVE COATNGS
FOR BOND-COATED SUBSTRATES AND
THER PREPARATION
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Thisinvention relatesto theprotection ofsubstrates,and,
more particularly, to thermal barrier coating systems for
superalloys used in gas turbine engines.
Inanaircraftgas turbine(jet) engine,airisdrawnintothe
front of the engine, compressed by a shaft-mounted
compressor,andmixedwithfuel.Themixtureisburned,and
thehotexhaust gases are passedthrough a turbine mounted
on the same shaft.Theflow of gas turns the turbine, which
turns the shaft and provides power to the compressor. The
hotexhaustgases flowfrom thebackofthe engine, driving
it and the aircraftforwardly.
The hotter the exhaust gases, the more efficient is the
operationofthejetengine.Thereisthusanincentiveto raise
the exhaust combustion gas temperature. However, the
maximumtemperature ofthe combustion gasesis normally
limited by the materials used to fabricatethe turbine vanes
and turbine blades ofthe turbine, upon which the combus
tion gases impinge when they are at their hottest tempera
tures. In current engines, the turbine vanes and blades are
made of nickel-based superalloys, and can operate at tem
peratures ofup to 1900-2100 F.
Many approaches have been usedto increase the operat
ingtemperaturelimitofthe turbinebladesandvanestotheir
currentlevels.The compositionandprocessingofthe mate
rials themselves have been improved, andphysical cooling
techniques are used.
In another approach, a protective thermal barrier coating
system is applied to the turbine blade or turbine vane
component,which serves as asubstrate.Thethermalbarrier
coating system includes a ceramic thermal barrier coating
that insulates the component from the hot exhaust gas,
permittingtheexhaustgastobehotterthan wouldotherwise
be possible with the particular material and fabrication
process ofthe component. An additional layercalled abond
coatisplacedbetweenthe substrate and thethermal barrier
coating to aid in adhering the ceramic thermal barrier
coatingto the substrate and to protect the substrate against
contact with the exhaust gases and against oxidation.
In currentpractice, the ceramicthermal barrier coating is
madeofzirconia(zirconiumoxide)thatisstabilizedwiththe
addition of from about 6 to about 8 weight percent yttria
(yttrium oxide), a material known as yttria-stabilized zirco
nia or YSZ. While operable, the YSZ is relatively dense
compared to many other ceramics. High density is a
disadvantage, particularly for use on rotating components
such as turbine blades. Moreover, there is a continuing
search for ceramic materials and configurations ofthe pro
tective coatingwith improved erosion andimpactresistance
tothehotgas environmentandthat,in combination with the
bond coat, contribute to improved performance ofthe pro
tected article.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a protected article and a
method forits preparation.Theprotection is provided by a
coating system utilizing a ceramic overcoating layer and a
bond coat between the ceramic overcoating layer and the
substrate. The protective system is less dense than a con
ventionalthermalbarriercoatingsystem,anditcantherefore
be made thicker to provide superior thermal insulation,

withoutaddingweight.Theprotective coatingoftheinven
tion has equivalent or superior erosion resistance and cor
rosion resistance, as well as better overall oxidationprotec
tion of the substrate, as compared with a conventional
coating system.
In accordance with one aspect of the invention, a pro
tectedarticle comprises a substrate, a metallicbond coaton
the substrate, and a protective coating comprising alpha
alumina on the bond coat, with no further ceramic material
layer over the alpha alumina coating. In one form of this
embodiment, the ceramic thermal barrier coating is alpha
alumina, either solely or with another ceramic or other
ceramics mixed with the alpha alumina. This embodiment
takesfull advantage ofthe low density ofthealpha alumina
anditsprotective,erosion-resistantqualities.Alpha alumina
has a lower density but higher thermal conductivity than
many other ceramic materials such as yttria-stabilized Zir
conia. It is therefore preferably applied as a thicker coating
than the ceramic coating used in conventional thermal
barrier coating systems to achieve equivalent or superior
thermal protection, to achieve superior erosion resistance,
impactresistance, and oxidationprotection ofthe substrate.
This embodimentisparticularlyuseful whentheapplication
requires a high erosion resistance ofthe coating.
In another embodiment of the invention, a protected
article comprises a substrate, a metallic bond coat on the
substrate,atoplayerofalphaalumina,anda secondceramic
material layer between the bond coat and the top layer of
alphaalumina.The second ceramic materiallayercouldbe,
for example, conventionalyttria-stabilizedzirconia or other
ceramic. This embodiment takes advantage of the oxygen
diffusion-barrier qualities ofthe alpha alumina and its ero
sion and impact resistance by placing the top layer of the
alpha alumina over the second ceramic material.
The present invention utilizes alpha alumina as the pri
marythermalbarriercoatingmaterial orasanovercoatover
another ceramic in the thermal barrier coating. The alpha
alumina is strongerand moreerosion resistantthan conven
tional materials such as YSZ at elevated temperatures. The
alpha alumina also exhibits impact resistance and fracture
toughness superior to the YSZ. Alpha alumina has the
additional importantadvantagethatitcan betoughenedand
made less susceptible to cracking by transformation tough
ening procedures. The transformation toughening is
achievedbymixingotherceramics suchaszirconiawiththe
alpha alumina. The alpha alumina can also be mixed with
ceramicssuchas nickel oxide, magnesium oxide, chromium
oxide, titanium oxide, and yttrium oxide to create spinels
and graded ceramic structures.
The present invention is limited to the use of alpha
alumina rather than other forms of alumina. When other
forms of alumina are deposited or are present, they can be
expectedtoexperiencephasetransformationsduringservice
to a more stable form. These phase transformations are
accompanied by volume changes, which in turn can leadto
wrinkling, cracking, or spalling of the ceramic coating, a
major disadvantage.
The invention also extends to a method for preparing the
coated articles. In accordance with this aspect of the
invention, a method for preparing a protected article com
prises the steps of providing a substrate, applying a bond
coattothesubstrate,anddepositinga layerofalphaalumina
ontothebond-coated substrate. Duringthe depositionofthe
alpha alumina, the bond-coated substrate is heated to a
temperature ofat leastabout 1800°F, and morepreferably
to a temperature ofabout2000°F,while thealpha alumina
is being deposited thereon.

This deposition technique canbeadaptedtothe structures
discussed previously, as well as others. For example, the
layer of alpha alumina can be deposited overlying and
directly onto the bond coat with no further ceramic material
layer deposited thereover. A layer of a second ceramic
material can be deposited over the bond coat, and the layer
of alpha alumina deposited over the layer of the second
ceramic material. In another application, the layer of alpha
alumina can be deposited overlying and directly onto the
bond coat, and a layer of a second ceramic material depos
ited overlying the layer of alpha alumina. In each case, the
bond-coated substrate is heated to at least 1800. F., and
preferably to 2000°F, while the alphaaluminais deposited
(but not necessarily when other ceramic layers are
deposited). Deposition of the alpha alumina is preferably
accomplished in all cases by electron beam physical vapor
deposition.
The present invention provides an advance in the art of
thermal barrier coating systems for protecting substrates. It
is most advantageously used with nickel-base superalloys
that are used in gas turbine engine applications. Other
features and advantages of the present invention will be
apparentfromthefollowing more detaileddescription ofthe
preferred embodiment,takenin conjunctionwiththe accom
panying drawings, which illustrate, by way ofexample, the
principles of the invention.

may be prepared in any operable manner, and may be a
polycrystal, an aligned polycrystal, or a single crystal.
The protective system 30 includes a bond coat34 depos
ited overlying and directly contacting the substrate 32. The
bond coat34 aids in adhering the overlying structure to the
substrate, both initially and during service. The bond coat
desirablyhasa coefficientofthermal expansionintermediate
that of the substrate and the overlying structure. The bond
coat also preferably contains aluminum in an amount suf
ficientto forman aluminum oxide scale over the bond coat,
eitherin aninitial oxidation orduringservice.The bond coat
may be of any operable composition, including, for
example, an alloy of the NiCrAIY or CoCrAIY type or a
platinum aluminide. The bond coat 34 is preferably from
about 0.002 to about 0.004 inches thick, and is preferably
deposited by low pressure plasma spray or chemical vapor
deposition.
Oneor morelayers ofceramicoverliesthebond coat.Two
preferred embodiments of the overlying structure are illus
trated in FIGS. 2(a) and 20b), respectively.
Theprotective system 30 ofthe embodiment ofFIG. 2(a)
includes a layer 36 of alpha alumina ceramic deposited
overlying and directly contactingthe bond coat 34.There is
preferably no further layer overlying the layer 36 in this
embodiment. The conventional yttria-stabilized zirconia
(YSZ) ceramic material is a better insulator per unit thick
ness than alpha alumina, but the alpha alumina is much
lighterper unitthickness thanYSZ. Stated alternatively, the
alpha alumina may be made much thicker than theYSZfor
an equivalent weight. The use of a thicker layer of alpha
alumina rather than a thinner layer of YSZ to achieve
thermal protection ofthe substrate has the advantage thatit
is moreerosion resistant.Thehigherthermal conductivity of
alpha alumina can be somewhat offset by depositing the
layer36 by electron beamphysical vapor deposition, which
leaves a degree ofporosity in the layer 36 that reduces its
thermal conductivity.Thus, the layer36 of alpha alumina is
preferably from about 0.002 inches to about 0.015 inches,
most preferably from about 0.005 inches to about 0.010
inches, thick. Thicker and thinner layers are also operable.
Additionally, alpha alumina has the advantage that it is
more resistant to impact and erosion damage than YSZ. A
thicklayer ofalpha alumina provides excellent impact and
erosion resistance to the substrate 32. The deposited alpha
alumina is compatible with the aluminum oxide scale that
can be, and usually is, present at the interface between the
bond coat34 and the layer36.Thealphaaluminaisresistant
to diffusion of oxygen therethrough, and therefore tends to
protect the substrate againstoxidation.The alphaalumina is
strong and hard at elevated temperatures.
Additionally, alpha alumina can be transformation tough
ened by the addition of small amounts of additional con
stituents mixedintothealpha alumina.Theaddition ofabout
25 percentby weight ofzirconia toalpha alumina increases
its fracture toughness to about 8 ksi-root inches. Additions
of other oxides to alpha alumina such as nickel oxide,
magnesium oxide, titanium oxide, and yttrium oxide can
also be made to the alpha alumina to create spinels and
graded ceramic structures.
The layer 36 must be alpha alumina, a rhombohedral
form, rather than other forms of alumina such as gamma
(cubic) alumina Alpha aluminaisthermodynamicallystable
at elevated temperatures, even above about 2000 F.,
whereas other forms of alumina will transform to more

stable forms during elevated temperature exposure. The
transformation observedin otherforms ofaluminaisaccom
panied by a volume change, leading to deformation,
wrinkling, and/orfailureby spalling ofthe layer. Thealpha
alumina form is chosen to avoid the occurrence of such
transformations.
In the embodiment of FIG. 2(b), which is the presently
mostpreferred embodiment, a layer38 ofa secondceramic
isdeposited overlyingand directly contactingthebondcoat
34. The layer 38 is formed of a ceramic other than alpha
alumina, such as YSZ or cerium oxide. The layer 38 is
preferably from about 0.002 inches to about 0.015 inches
thick Atoplayer40ofalphaaluminais depositedoverlying
and directly contacting the layer.The top layer 40 is pref
erably from about 0.00025 inches to about 0.004 inches
thick. This embodiment combines the good thermal insula
tive properties ofYSZ or other low-conductivity ceramics
with the erosion/impact resistance of alpha alumina. The
alpha alumina also serves as a corrosion-resistant layer
against deposits containing vanadium which are often
observed in industrial and marine gas turbine engines.
FIG. 3 depicts three embodiments of a method for pre
paring a protected substrate. In all embodiments, the sub
strate 32 is provided, numeral 50, and the bond coat 34 is
appliedtothe substrate, numeral52.The substrate32andits
method ofpreparation,and the bond coat34 andits method
ofapplication, are as described previously.
In a first embodiment, path A, the bond-coated substrate
is heated to a temperature of at least about 1800° F, and
most preferably to a temperature offrom about 1975° F to
about 2050 F., numeral 54. A layer of alpha alumina is
deposited directlyontothe bond coat34 atthistemperature,
numeral 56. The layer of alpha alumina is preferably from
about0.0001 inchtoabout0.005inches thick. Depositionof
the alpha alumina layer is preferably accomplished by
electronbeamphysicalvapordeposition (EBPVD). EBPVD

use ofEBPVD is preferred over otherapproaches to depo

coverage of the surface. EBPVD is performed in the same
chamber as the deposition of the other ceramic layers, if
used, and thebond coatinits preferredapplication method.

betweendepositiondevicesistherebyavoided.Additionally,
EBPVDproducesadesirable segmented columnarstructure
inthe depositedalphaaluminalayer,ascomparedwithother
techniques which produce a flat platelet structure in the
deposited alumina layer.The segmented columnar structure
is preferredforits resistance to thermal cycling damage.To
completetheprocessingofembodimentA,a second layerof
ceramic such as YSZ is deposited over the layer ofalpha,
numeral 58 The second layer of ceramic need not be, but
may be, deposited at the same temperature as the alpha
alumina layer. The layer of second ceramic is preferably
from about 0.002 inches to about 0.015 inches thick.
In the resulting structure, which is not pictured, the layer
ofalphaalumina liesbetween thebond coatandthe layer of
secondceramic.Sucha structurehasbeenpreviously known
and is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,880,614. However, the
present approach has the advantage over the approach
described in the '614 patent that the various layers are
deposited inthe same deposition chambertoavoidcontami
nation resulting from moving the substrate between depo

numeral 62.The layer ofalpha alumina is preferably from
about 0.002 inches to about 0.015 inches, most preferably
from about 0.005 inches to about 0.010 inches, thick.
Deposition ofthe alpha alumina layeris preferably accom
plished by EBPVD. The resulting structure corresponds to
that depicted in FIG. 2(a).
In a third embodiment, path C, the layer 38 ofthe second
ceramic is deposited, numeral 64. Deposition is by any
approach suitable for the second ceramic, which is most
preferablyYSZ.Thelayer38ispreferablyfromabout0.002
inches to about 0.015 inches thick. The coated substrate 32
is heated to a temperature of at least about 1800°F, and
most preferably to a temperature offromabout 1975° F to
about 2050°F, numeral 66. Alayer 40 ofalpha alumina is
deposited directly onto the second ceramic layer 38 at this
temperature, numeral 68. The layer of alpha alumina is
preferablyfrom about 0.00025inches to about0.004 inches
thick. Deposition of the alpha alumina layer is preferably
accomplished by EBPVD. The resulting structure,corre
spondstothemostpreferredstructuredepictedin FIG.2(b).
The approach ofthe third embodiment has been reduced
to practice. In this reduction, the substrate was Rene N5
nickel-based superalloy, and the bond coat was platinum
aluminide.About 0.005 inches ofYSZwas deposited over
lying and contacting the bond coat. About 0.001-0.002
inches ofalphaaluminawasdeposited overlyingtheYSZby
EBPVD with the coated substrateata temperature ofabout
1850 F. The erosion resistance of this material was mea
sured by blastingthe surface ofthe alpha alumina layer40
with 100 grams of alumina grit of 50 micrometer particle
size carried in 25 pounds per square inch air at a flow rate
of98 feetper second and at a 90 degree impactangle. The
penetration depth was about 0.002 inches. By comparison,
YSZ material tested by the same approach exhibited a
penetrationdepth ofabout0.0034inches.Thefurnace cycle
test life of the materials was about the same.
