Description:
The final results of an oxidation-reduction rig evaluation of aluminide coatings are presented, as applied to 1N-100 and B1900 nickel-base and X-10 and WI-52 cobalt-base alloys. Burner rigs were used which operated on JP-5 fuel and air, producing a gas velocity of 0.85 (2000 to 2500 ft/sec) at the specimen's leading edge. One-hour heating cycles were used with three minutes of air blast cooling. Results of testing at temperatures ranging from T sub max of 1850 to 2050 F indicate that coated B1900 has the longest oxidation life at all temperatures, followed by IN-100X-40WI-52, based on a weight change criterion. Coatings on nickel-base alloys provided more than twice the life of coating on cobalt-base alloys at comparable temperatures. The coatings with higher aluminum content and comparable thickness had longer lives. Silicon appeared to be a beneficial additive in the nickel-base alloy coatings for long term, low temperature life, but not for short term, high temperature performance. Chromium was identified in all coatings. Extrapolating the life results obtained to 1600 F, all the selected coatings on the four alloys would be protective for at least 10,000 hours.
