Abstract
A process for coating a gas turbine engine disk comprises placing the disk having an outer surface into a chamber, the chamber configured to perform atomic layer deposition; injecting a first reactant into the chamber; forming a first monolayer gas thin film on the outer surface; removing the first reactant from the chamber; injecting a second reactant into the chamber; reacting second reactant with the first monolayer gas thin film; removing the second reactant from the chamber; and forming a protective barrier coating on the outer surface.
