Abstract

A layer system and a method for producing a component having such a layer system are provided. The layer system includes a substrate a substrate, at least one MCrX layer on the substrate, and a chromium-rich layer on or in the at least one MCrX layer. X includes at least one element selected from the group consisting of yttrium (Y), silicon (Si), aluminum (Al) and boron (B). M includes at least one element selected from the group consisting of nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co).

Claims (22)

1. A layer system, comprising:

a substrate,

a first layer comprising two MCrX inner layers on the substrate, wherein said two MCrX inner layers comprise a second inner layer, the second inner layer being an MCrX″ layer, wherein X″ consists of Si and B,

a second layer comprising a chromized layer on the first layer, and

a third layer comprising an aluminized MCrX layer on the second layer,

wherein X is selected from the group consisting of yttrium (Y), silicon (Si), boron (B), and combinations thereof, and

wherein M is an element selected from the group consisting of nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and a combination thereof.

2. The layer system according to claim 1 , wherein only one of the two inner layers is directly in contact with the substrate.

3. The layer system according to claim 1 , wherein said two inner MCrX layers comprises a first inner layer, the first inner layer being an MCrAlX′ layer, wherein X′ comprises Yttrium (Y).

4. The layer system according to claim 3 , wherein the MCrAlX′ layer comprises a NiCrAlY alloy.

5. The layer system according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer on the first layer comprises an α-chromium layer.

6. The layer system according to claim 1 , wherein the chromized layer is disposed on top of the second inner layer.

7. A method for producing a component, comprising:

applying a first layer comprising two MCrX inner layers on a substrate, wherein said two MCrX inner layers comprises a second inner layer, the second inner layer being an MCrX″ layer, wherein X″ consists of Si and B,

applying a second layer comprising a chromized layer on the first layer,

applying a third layer comprising an aluminized MCrX layer on the second layer,

wherein X is selected from the group consisting of yttrium (Y), silicon (Si), boron (B), and combinations thereof, and

wherein M is selected from the group consisting of nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and a combination thereof.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the two MCrX inner layers are applied by HVOF.

9. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the second layer comprises an α-chromium layer.

10. The method according to claim 7 , further comprising after the applying of the first and second inner layers, performing a stabilizing heat treatment at 1000 to 1025° C. and for 6 h.

11. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the second layer is applied by a chromizing treatment at a temperature between 1050° C. and 1080° C. for 2 h to 4 h.
