Restoration of the wear-resistant coatings on a GTE compressor airfoil shroud platform

Resumo

The deposition of a VT20 alloy onto the airfoil shroud platform of a compressor in an argon atmosphere and the composition, the structure, and the properties of a restored wear-resistant VK-25M coating are studied. The coating deposited onto the built-up material is found to contain (%) 3–4 C, 72–74 W, and 23–24 Co. This coating does not undergo cracking when a diamond pyramid is indented at a load of 50 kg or a diamond cone is indented at a load of 100 kg at a layer thickness of 0.15, 0.25, and 0.38 mm.
