METHODS FOR DEPOSITING COATINGS ON AEROSPACE COMPONENTS
Methods for forming protective coatings on aerospace components are provided. In one or more embodiments, the method includes exposing an aerospace component to a first precursor and a first reactant to form a first deposited layer on a surface of the aerospace component by a first deposition process (e.g., CVD or ALD), and exposing the aerospace component to a second precursor and a second reactant to form a second deposited layer on the first deposited layer by a second deposition process. The first deposited layer and the second deposited layer have different compositions from each other. The method also includes repeating the first deposition process and the second deposition process to form a nanolaminate film stack having from 2 pairs to about 1,000 pairs of the first deposited layer and the second deposited layer consecutively deposited on each other.

PROTECTION OF COMPONENTS FROM CORROSION
Using the systems and methods discussed herein, CMAS corrosion is inhibited via CMAS interception in an engine environment and/or is prevented or reduced by the formation of a metal oxide protective coating on a hot engine section component. The CMAS interception can occur while the engine is in operation in flight or in a testing or quality control environment. The metal oxide protective coating can be applied over other coatings, including Gd-zirconates (GZO) or yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ). The metal oxide protective coating is applied at original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and can also be applied in-situ using a gas injection system during engine use in-flight or during maintenance or quality testing. The metal oxide protective coating contains a rare earth element, aluminum, zirconium, chromium, or combinations thereof.
