Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to oxide layer compositions for turbine engine components and methods for depositing the oxide layer compositions. In one or more embodiments, a turbine engine component includes a superalloy substrate and a bond coat disposed over the superalloy substrate. The turbine engine component includes an oxide layer disposed over the bond coat, where the oxide layer includes aluminum oxide and a metal dopant. The turbine engine component includes a thermal barrier coating disposed over the oxide layer.

A method of forming a component includes mixing a powdered base material and a binder to define a mixture, forming the mixture into a desired shape without melting the base material, removing the binder from the desired shape to define a skeleton, the volume of the skeleton being between 80 percent and 95 percent base material, and infiltrating the skeleton with a melting point depressant material to define a finished component, the finished component having less than one percent porosity by volume.

A solution is provided includes a strong base, a corrosion inhibitor, wherein the strong base is an alkali metal hydroxide, wherein the corrosion inhibitor is at least one of an organic acid having a-COOH functional group or an alkali metal salt of one of an organic acid having a-COOH functional group.

A blade includes an airfoil section extending between leading and trailing edges, first and second opposed sides each joining the leading and trailing edges, and an inner end and a free end. The blade also includes an abrasive tip at the free end of the airfoil section. The abrasive tip includes particles disposed in a matrix material. The matrix material is a polymeric material that has a glass transition temperature greater than or equal to about 225 degrees C. (437 degrees F.). A gas turbine engine and a method of fabricating a blade are also disclosed.

A mask is provided for an additively manufactured part including a plurality of spaced openings in a surface of the part. The mask is made with the part and includes an attachment ligament configured to integrally couple to the part between the openings in a cantilever fashion. First and second cover members include a proximal ends integrally coupled to the attachment ligament and distal ends extending at least partially over a respective portions of the plurality of openings. A detachment member extends from each of the first and second cover members. The attachment ligament is the sole connection to the part. The mask may have an umbrella shape in cross-section.

The present invention provides a method for producing a steam turbine member that is highly superior in smoothness. The present invention provides a method for producing a steam turbine member including a cladding layer forming step of forming a cladding layer from a powdered material containing a metal in a region of a base material in which corrosion easily occurs, and a surface heating step of heat-melting a surface of the cladding layer.

A fan blade for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The disclosed fan blade includes an airfoil having a leading edge, a trailing ling edge, a convex side, a concave side and a distal tip. The leading edge, trailing edge, convex side and concave side of the airfoil is at least partially coated with an erosion resistant coating. The distal tip of the airfoil is coated with a bonded abrasive coating. The bonded abrasive coating engages the abradable coating disposed on the fan liner and, because of its low thermal conductivity, reduces heat transfer to the distal tip of the fan blade. The reduction in heat transfer to the distal tip of the fan blade preserves the integrity of erosion resistant coatings that may be applied to the body or the airfoil of the fan blade.

A turbomachine vane includes a blading made of composite material with fibrous reinforcement densified by a matrix and an integrated metal leading edge, the blading extending in a longitudinal direction, the leading edge being formed by a metal foil overmolded onto the blading, the foil having a lower wing and an upper wing which extend respectively on the lower and upper faces of the blading while matching an aerodynamic profile of the vane. One of the lower wing and the upper wing has a positioning portion extending in the longitudinal direction, the portion having a flat inner face and an increasing thickness away from the leading edge, and being housed in a correspondingly shaped groove in the blading.
