Considerable work has been carried out on overlay bond coats in the past several decades
because of its excellent oxidation resistance and good adhesion between the top coat and …

The very high cycle fatigue properties of the Ni-based single-crystal superalloy CMSX-4
coated with an MCrAlY type coating and grit-blasted were studied at 1000° C, 20 kHz and …

Chromium (Cr)-coated zircaloy has been regarded as a promising candidate for developing
accident tolerant fuel (ATF) claddings. The deformation and failure of Cr coatings under …

In this paper, the microstructure evolution of two as-cast CoNiCrAl bond coat alloys after
various isothermal heat treatments were investigated. The CoNiCrAl bond coat alloys were …

The tensile properties of a NiCoCrAlYTa coating manufactured by the Tribomet® process
were examined in a wide range of temperatures representative to turbine in-service …

In this paper, the microstructure and thermophysical properties of two CoNiCrAl bond coat
alloys with differing Al contents were investigated. Two CoNiCrAl alloys with compositions of …

The β-phase depletion kinetics in MCrAlY coating alloys at different Al contents has been
investigated by diffusion simulations and comparing with available experimental data. The …

This paper details an investigation of the effects of oxide stringers on the β-phase depletion
behaviour in thermally sprayed CoNiCrAlY coatings. Vacuum Plasma Sprayed (VPS) …

This paper investigates the β-phase coarsening behaviour during isothermal heat treatment
of free-standing CoNiCrAlY (Co-31.7% Ni-20.8% Cr-8.1% Al-0.5% Y, all in wt%) coatings …

Un-melted particles in thermally sprayed coatings are usually classified as impurity
elements. Such impurities have a strong influence on the coating behaviour due to their …
