Abstract  

Pt-Al coating has been widely used in engine rotor blades because of its ability to improve the oxidation and hot corrosion resistance of Ni-based superalloys. However, the effect exerted by Pt on S and other refractory elements, as well as the rupture mechanisms, is under debate. To investigate the influence of Pt-Al coating on the corrosion resistance of single-crystal superalloy at high temperature, the hot corrosion test utilized Na2SO4 salt coated on the surface of the Pt-Al coating samples and the uncoated ones were carried out at 900oC, respectively. Using several techniques, such as XRD, SEM, EDS, and EPMA, the influence of Pt-Al coating on the hot corrosion behaviors of a Ni-based single-crystal superalloy was analyzed. Moreover, the hot corrosion kinetics, hot corrosion products, and microstructure evolution during the process were analyzed. The results reveal that the hot corrosion resistance of the substrate alloy was enhanced by Pt-Al coating. The hot corrosion rate of the Pt-Al coating sample was lower than that of the uncoated one. Thus, it can be inferred that Pt-Al coating exhibited better hot corrosion resistance. Pt prevented the diffusion of S into the β-(Ni, Pt)Al phase. The S atom was present at the oxide-metal interface, which reduced the hot corrosion rate of the substrate alloy. The presence of Pt in the β-(Ni, Pt)Al obstructed the great mass of Ta in the inter diffusion zone, which led to the diffusion of only a small quantity of Ta atoms into the oxide, and reduced the formation of Ta2O5. Finally, Pt-Al coating was also found to restrain to some extent the void formation at the oxide-metal interface.
