Abstract
Abstract Aluminized nickel-base, cobalt-base and nickel-cobalt-base heat resistant alloy substrates are provided in which, prior to aluminizing the substrate, the substrate is provided with a thin coating of rhodium and thereafter a thin coating of platinum, the coatings being diffusion bonded to the substrate, such that when the prepared substrate is aluminized by pack cementation, a compositely structured coating is obtained characterized by improved resistance to high temperature oxidation and sulfidation.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
76 words
An aluminized heat resistant article of manufacture formed of a heat resistant alloy selected from the group consisting of nickel-base, cobalt-base and nickel-cobalt-base alloy, said aluminized article being characterized by a multi-layered aluminized coating having a metallographic structure defining an outer zone adjacent the coating surface thereof containing platinum, an inner zone substantially adjacent the article substrate containing rhodium, said multi-layered coating containing an intermetallic compound selected from the group consisting of nickel and cobalt aluminides.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
76 words
An aluminized heat resistant article of manufacture formed of a heat resistant alloy selected from the group consisting of nickel-base, cobalt-base and nickel-cobalt-base alloy, said aluminized article being characterized by a multi-layered aluminized coating having a metallographic structure defining an outer zone adjacent the coating surface thereof containing platinum, an inner zone substantially adjacent the article substrate containing rhodium, said multi-layered coating containing an intermetallic compound selected from the group consisting of nickel and cobalt aluminides.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
67 words
The aluminized heat resistant article as in claim 1, wherein for the total aluminized coating thickness on the alloy article, the platinum content in the outer zone of approximately one-third of the thickness ranges from about 10 to 70% by weight, while the rhodium content in the inner zone near the alloy substrate of approximately one-third of the thickness ranges from about 5 to 40% by weight.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
136 words
The aluminized heat resistant article of manufacture of claim 1, wherein said heat resistant alloy comprises up to about 30% Cr, up to about 20% of a metal from the group consisting of Mo and W, up to about 10% of a metal from the group consisting of Cb and Ta, up to about 1% C, up to about 10% by weight of a metal from the group consisting of Ti and Al, the total amount of Ti and Al not exceeding about 12%, up to about 20% Fe, up to about 2% Mn, up to about 2% Si, up to about 0.2% B, up to about 1% Zr, up to about 2% Hf, and the balance at least 45% by weight of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of nickel and cobalt.
