Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a coated substrate article coated with an alloy powder containing, in weight percent, 7 to 19 silicon, up to 5 copper balance nickel, cobalt and/or iron plus impurities. The articles may be coated by a variety of spray coating processes; however, plasma spray coating is preferred. The coated article is especially suited for use in severe conditions of wet corrosion.

Claim 2
Dependent Claim 43 words
A metal alloy powder, substantially less than 75 microns in particle size, for use in spray coating processes, said alloy consisting essentially of, in weight percent, 7 to 19 silicon, up to 5 copper, 76 to 93 total nickel and cobalt, plus impurities.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
The metal powder of claim 1 produced by one process selected from the group gas atomization and water atomization processes.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The metal powder of claim 1 produced by blending alloyed or unalloyed powders to obtain desired composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
The metal powder of claim 1 deposited on a substrate article by a method selected from the group electric arc and flame spraying.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 38 words
The method of coating a substrate article including the steps, producing the metal powder of claim 1, spray coating said article with said powder, characterized by heat treating the coated article to promote oxidation of the resultant deposit.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 28 words
An article of manufacture comprising a substrate article coated by a method selected from the group electric arc and flame spraying with the metal powder of claim 1.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 12 words
