METHOD OF REPAIRING INTAKE COATINGS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of repairing intake coatings (12), in particular intake coatings for use in compressor and turbine components, wherein the process comprises the following steps: a) filling of a damaged place (10) of the inlet coating (12) with a material (18) whose material composition corresponds to that of the intake coating (12) or is comparable to this or whose materials properties are comparable to the materials properties of the intake coating (12); b) drying of the material (18) introduced into the damaged place (10); c) application of a diffusion donor layer (20) over the region of the damaged place (10) and onto the introduced material (18); and d) heat treatment of the intake coating (12) at least in the region of the damaged place (10) to effect local diffusion of at least one metallic element from the diffusion donor layer (20) into the introduced material (18).
