Abstract
In a thermally sprayed, gastight protective layer for metal substrates, such as Fe, Ni, Al, Mg and/or Ti, the spray powder for the purpose includes at least two components. The first is a silicate mineral or rock and the second is a metal powder and/or a further silicate mineral or rock. The silicate mineral or rock component in the spray powder has an alkali content of less than 6 percent by weight.
Claims11
A thermally sprayed, gastight protective layer for a metal substrate;
- the substrate selected from one of Fe, Ni, Al, Mg or Ti, the protective layer comprising:
- a first and a second component,
- the first component comprising a first silicate,
- the second component comprising one of a first metal powder, a second silicate, and a combination of the first metal powder and the second silicate;
- wherein an alkali content of a combination of the first and second components in an initial spray powder is less than 6 percent by weight;
- and
- wherein the first and the second silicate are selected from a silicate mineral or a silicate rock.
A spray powder for producing a protective layer, the spray powder comprising:
- a first and a second component,
- the first component comprising a first silicate,
- the second component comprising one of a first metal powder, a second silicate, and a combination of the first metal powder and the second silicate;
- wherein an alkali content of a combination of the first and second components is less than 6 percent by weight;
- and
- wherein the first and the second silicate are selected from a silicate mineral or a silicate rock;
- wherein when sprayed a protective layer results over a substrate.
A method of applying a protective layer, the protective layer comprising
- a first and a second component,
- the first component comprising a first silicate,
- the second component comprising one of a first metal powder, a second silicate, and a combination of the first metal powder and the second silicate;
- wherein an alkali content of a combination of the first and second components in an initial spray powder is less than 6 percent by weight;
- and
- wherein the first and the second silicate are selected from a silicate mineral or a silicate rock;
- the method comprising the step of:
- (a) applying the protective layer to a substrate to protect against high temperature, corrosion or erosion, the substrate comprising a surface of a combustion engine or a gas turbine.
