- Abstract
We examined a sequential Hf doping procedure, which consisted of (1) "prehafnizing" the surface of a single-crystal Ni-based superalloy (RENÉ N5) with HfCl[sub4] and H[sub2], and (2) aluminizing with AlCl[sub3] and H[sub2], as a means of incorporating Hf as a dopant in the aluminide coating matrix. The prehafnized layer on RENÉ N5 substrate significantly altered the growth behavior and therefore the morphology of the resulting aluminide coating. With the prehafnizing step, the coating layer became much thinner with a significant amount of Hf incorporated as Hf-rich phases (Hf[sub2]Ni[sub7], Hf[sub3]Ni[sub7], and/or Hf[sub8]Ni[sub21]). However, the Hf-rich phases segregated to the coating surface and retarded the inward A1 diffusion required to form the β-NiAl coating matrix. The sequential Hf doping procedure provided a mechanism to incorporate a significant amount of Hf in the coating, but did not produce a uniform distribution of Hf as a dopant. The results were compared to those observed for a continuous doping procedure that was previously studied, and were discussed in the context of understanding the limitations of these procedures.
