As aircraft and thermoelectric turbine blades work in aggressive environments (high temperatures and pressures), they are exposed to oxidation reactions. Ceramic coatings are employed to increase the turbine work temperature (improving its performance) and a bond coat (BC), base of particulate material of Ni-Cr-Al powders, which assure a good adhesion, gradual decrease in thermal expansion coefficient between the metallic substrate and the ceramic top coat, avoiding the oxidation effect in the metallic substrate. This research aims the study and comparison of two different deposition process routes of particulate materials of BC (MCrAlY) on AISI 316 stainless steel substrate. In the first case, the BC powder was pre-deposited by segregation method and irradiated by a CO2laser beam. In the second case, laser surface texturing was done on the stainless steel surface by a Yb: fiber laser beam, the BC was deposited by the same method, and further, irradiated by a CO2laser beam. The main focus of this work was to evaluate the resulting interface for both mentioned cases. For this propose, characterizations were made using the techniques of optical microscopy and roughness measurements. In the first case, homogenous layers of bond coat were obtained. Optical microscopy suggest the formation of a metallurgic bonding between the substrate and the MCrAlY. For the laser surface texturing, the surface roughness can be adjusted by the laser beam parameters.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
