International Classification:
C23C 1600
US Classification:
427252
Abstract:
A method for coating articles, such as gas turbine blades, with a coating of variable thickness by securing a shield having one or more holes extending therethrough to the article thereby defining a shielded portion of the article, exposing the article and shield to a metal-bearing gas which is circulated around the article to deposit a metallic coating thereon, wherein the circulation of the gas adjacent the shielded portion of the article is restricted by the presence of the shield, thereby producing a substantially thinner coating on the shielded portion of the article than on the unshielded portion.

International Classification:
C23C 1432
US Classification:
20429841
Abstract:
According to the present invention, an apparatus for applying material by cathodic arc vapor deposition to a substrate is provided which includes a vessel, apparatus for maintaining a vacuum in the vessel, an annular cathode having a bore and an evaporative surface extending between first and second end surfaces, apparatus for selectively sustaining an arc of electrical energy between the cathode and an anode, and apparatus for steering the arc around the evaporative surface. The apparatus for steering the arc is positioned within the cathode bore, and produces a magnetic field that runs substantially parallel to the evaporative surface. The annular cathode is disposed radially inside of, and aligned with, the substrates inside the vessel.

International Classification:
B32B 1800
US Classification:
123 4179
Abstract:
A thermal barrier coating for high temperature applications has improved resistance to heat flow. The coating comprises a large number of these (nanometer scale) layers separated by interfaces which are effective in retarding heat flow. The coating material will typically be oxide based ceramics and the coating has particular applications in gas turbine engines.
