Assignee:

Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC - Livermore CA

International Classification:

B05D 1/02

US Classification:

148403

Abstract:

A system for coating a surface comprises providing a source of amorphous metal, providing ceramic particles, and applying the amorphous metal and the ceramic particles to the surface by a spray. The coating comprises a composite material made of amorphous metal that contains one or more of the following elements in the specified range of composition: yttrium (≧1 atomic %), chromium (14 to 18 atomic %), molybdenum (≧7 atomic %), tungsten (≧1 atomic %), boron (≦5 atomic %), or carbon (≧4 atomic %).

US Classification:

20429813, 118300

Abstract:

A method of coating a surface comprising providing a source of amorphous metal that contains manganese (1 to 3 atomic %), yttrium (0. 1 to 10 atomic %), and silicon (0. 3 to 3. 1 atomic %) in the range of composition given in parentheses; and that contains the following elements in the specified range of composition given in parentheses: chromium (15 to 20 atomic %), molybdenum (2 to 15 atomic %), tungsten (1 to 3 atomic %), boron (5 to 16 atomic %), carbon (3 to 16 atomic %), and the balance iron; and applying said amorphous metal to the surface by a spray.

International Classification:

C22C 45/00

US Classification:

148403000

Abstract:

A system for the deposition of full-density, pore-free, corrosion-resistant, thermal-spray amorphous-metal coatings for the protection of a less corrosion resistant substrate. The system comprises using particle-size optimization (PSO) to ensure that the amorphous metal particles are small enough to ensure that the critical cooling rate is achieved throughout the amorphous metal particles.
