: Components like turbine blades and engine parts are aluminised to survive the high-temperature oxidation found in jet engines.
There are three standard industrial methods used to apply this coating: aluminise
: Aluminum halide gases are used to deposit the coating. This is ideal for complex shapes or internal surfaces, such as turbine blades, that are difficult to reach with other methods. Common Applications : Components like turbine blades and engine parts
: The metal part is "packed" into a mixture of aluminum powder, an activator, and an inert filler, then heated in a furnace. This causes the aluminum to diffuse into the surface, creating a protective aluminide layer . such as turbine blades
