Abstract

A coating for a heat engine part, particularly a turbo-machine part made of superalloy, comprises an electrophoretically deposited metallic structure of cellular form with uniformly disposed cells of predetermined size, the structure preferably being composed of M, Cr, Al, and Y, where M denotes Ni, Co, Fe and mixtures thereof. The cellular metallic structure is consolidated by a sintering treatment, which may be reactive, or metallization, preferably in the vapor phase, and the coating is completed by a ceramic material applied by plasma spraying.
