20160047029 | Method and Apparatus for Depositing Protective Coatings and Components Coated Thereby - A method and apparatus for forming a coating on a surface of a superalloy substrate area of a gas turbine engine component, and the component produced by the method, includes providing a slurry with selected metal powders suspended in a silane containing solution, applying the slurry by brushing, spraying or 3D printing using a piezoelectric dot matrix printhead to the superalloy substrate, drying the applied slurry, and depending on the aluminum content desired in the coating, including a sufficient amount of aluminum in the slurry or aluminiding the coated component. The method and apparatus can be used to obtain components having different superalloy coating thicknesses or compositions in different areas of the component based on the particular operating environment for each area with a single heat treatment and/or aluminiding cycle for obtaining the different coatings. | 02-18-2016 |
20090120804 | APPARATUS, METHODS, AND COMPOSITIONS FOR REMOVING COATINGS FROM A METAL COMPONENT - Apparatus and methods for removing coatings from metal components, such as metal components used in aircraft and other aerospace vehicles and the oil industry, as well as aqueous bath compositions. The metal component may be DC coupled with a counter electrode and immersed in an aqueous bath that includes an active oxygen source and a ligand in a composition effective to remove the coating. The aqueous bath may include hydrogen peroxide as the active oxygen source and may be maintained in a specific pH range if the temperature of the aqueous bath is controlled. In an alternative embodiment, the composition of the aqueous bath may include a non-peroxide active oxygen source, such as sodium perborate, and be maintained in a different specific pH range. An oxygen sensor may be provided to periodically monitor the concentration of active oxygen in the aqueous bath. | 05-14-2009 |

20080245302 | SIMPLE CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION SYSTEMS FOR DEPOSITING MULTIPLE-METAL ALUMINIDE COATINGS - A chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system and method for applying an aluminide coating constituted by two or more extrinsic metal components on a jet engine component. The aluminide coating is capable of forming a protective complex oxide upon subsequent heating in an oxidizing environment. At least one of the extrinsic metals in the aluminide coating is provided as a first vapor phase reactant from a receptacle coupled by a closed communication path with the reaction chamber of the CVD system and free of a carrier gas. The aluminide coating is formed by the chemical combination of the first vapor phase reactant with a second vapor phase reactant either created in situ in the reaction chamber or supplied by a carrier gas to the reaction chamber from a precursor source. | 10-09-2008 |
