Title:

Thermally Sprayed Functional High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) Coatings for Advanced Transport and Energy Applications

Agreement Number:

998849

Agreement Value:

$300,000.00

Agreement Date:

Feb 14, 2023 - Dec 31, 2025

Description:

The Project will investigate high temperature performance for oxidation, corrosion and wear of cold sprayed and warm sprayed high-entropy alloy (HEA) coatings and benchmark these with respect to existing high temperature resistant MCrAlY alloys used as traditional bond coat materials and/or wear resistant coatings. These traditional coatings include tungsten or chromium carbide-based cermets. The novel HEA coatings proposed in this Project may become alternatives to the traditional high temperature resistant metallic alloys and cermet overlay coatings and thus be used on a component surface that works in elevated temperature environments providing increased protection against oxidation, corrosion and wear while increasing the lifetime of the component over a wide range of operating conditions and eliminating costs associated with repair and overhaul.
