capabilities compared to current Ni-base superalloys commonly used in aerospace and
power generation applications. As with Ni-base alloys, high temperature coatings that
enhance environmental resistance are desirable. Single crystal samples of Co–9.2 Al–9.0 W
and Co–7.8 Al–7.8 W–4.5 Cr–2.0 Ta (at.%) were coated with vapour phase nickel aluminide
and MCrAlY. Samples were subjected to cyclic oxidation at 1100° C with 300–450 1-h …
