Abstract

Cold spray coatings have shown great corrosion protections due to the intrinsic dense character of the sprayed material. However, these types of coatings do not get wide application in low-temperature corrosion for their economical inferiority compared to other alternative coating technologies. For this reason, the other possible application for cold spray corrosion coatings needs to be developed, such as high-temperature oxidation resistance coatings on titanium-based alloys. The titanium-based alloys such as orthorhombic Ti2AlNb and γ-TiAl-based alloys are considered as potential structural materials for high-temperature applications in aeroengines, but they still suffered from oxidation and environmental embrittlement at elevated temperatures. Coatings represent an effective way to solve the problems. However, the available coatings do not meet the requirements of titanium-based alloys for many reasons. In this chapter, the use of cold spray technology for preparing TiAl3, TiAl3/Al, TiAl3/Al2O3, and TiAlSi coatings on titanium-based alloys and their behaviors at high temperatures are reviewed. This chapter is mainly divided into four parts, including the background of the study, the coating preparations, the coating characterization, and the high temperature performance of the coatings. The main results of the investigations showed that the TiAl3 composite coatings prepared by cold spray exhibited great improvement for the oxidation of substrate alloys, which is different from those prepared by other available technologies. The coating protection and degradation mechanisms are analyzed. Comparison of TiAl3 composite coatings prepared by cold spray and other technologies is also discussed.
