61Al 6Si 24C Graphite Powder Description:
The 61Al 6Si 24C Graphite Powder stands out as a specialized composite powder meticulously crafted for clearance control coatings within gas turbine engines. This finely tuned blend, comprising aluminum, silicon, and graphite, offers a distinctive set of properties crucial for such demanding environments. These coatings play a pivotal role in safeguarding against wear on rotating parts and fine-tuning gas path efficiency by regulating clearance in seal regions. With its harmonized traits of abradability and erosion resistance, the coating assures extended component longevity while upholding operational effectiveness. Furthermore, the integration of graphite into the powder formulation delivers heightened lubrication, effectively curbing material transfer from the coating to rotating elements during engine operation. To ensure optimal coating performance and resilience, the recommended application method is the Combustion Powder Thermospray process. Compared with 64Al 7Si 22C Graphite Powder coating, 61Al 6Si 24C Graphite Powder coating has greater erosion resistance.
