The anti-coking coating includes a copper salt, a silver salt, or a combination thereof. A gas turbine engine component including a wall having a first surface and an anti-coking coating on the first surface of the wall that is wetted by hydrocarbon fluid. The anti-coking coating including a copper salt, a silver salt, or a combination thereof that prevents the formation of gum or coke on a surface thereon. Methods for reducing the deposition of thermal decomposition products on a wall of an article are also provided.
A hydrocarbon fluid containment article through which a hydrocarbon fluid flows, the hydrocarbon fluid containment article comprising:
A gas turbine engine component comprising:
A method for reducing deposition of thermal decomposition products on a wall of an article containing a hydrocarbon fluid at temperatures above 105° C. comprising, depositing an anti-coking coating on a first surface of the wall of the article that is wetted by the hydrocarbon fuel, the anti-coking coating comprising a copper salt and a silver salt, the hydrocarbon fluid contacting and flowing across the anti-coking coating, wherein the silver salt comprises silver chloride, silver fluoride, silver nitrate, silver sulfate, or combinations thereof.
