Abstract: Nickel-base alloys suitable for use as a weld material to weld high-temperature components (10), such as turbine blades and vanes of gas turbine engines. The nickel-base alloys consist essentially of, by weight, 5 to 10 percent chromium, 3 to 14 percent cobalt, up to 4 percent molybdenum, 3 to 7 percent tungsten, 5 to 9 percent tantalum, 5 to 8 percent aluminum, 0.1 to 2 percent hafnium, 0.005 to 0.03 percent boron, up to 0.15 percent carbon, the balance being nickel and incidental impurities and/or residual elements. Welds (12) formed with the alloys are capable of exhibiting desirable levels of strength and oxidation resistance, while containing little if any rhenium.

Abstract: A system for restoring or regenerating an article, such as turbine blade or vane for a gas turbine engine, includes a first cathode and a second cathode operably disposed in a deposition chamber. The first cathode includes a first deposition material substantially similar in composition to the material of a residual substrate. The second cathode includes a second deposition material able to form an environmental coating on a restored/regenerated component. The first and second cathodes may be sequentially operated without interrupting the vacuum conditions in the deposition chamber. A method for restoring or regenerating an article includes utilizing the first cathode to deposit a layer of first deposition material onto the residual substrate and subsequently applying the environmental coating utilizing a common deposition chamber, and without interrupting the vacuum conditions between depositions.
