Abstract
A nickel-base superalloy article has a coating having a composition, in weight percent, of from about 10 to about 20 percent cobalt, from about 14 to about 25 percent chromium, from about 2 to about 12 percent aluminum, from 0 to about 0.2 percent yttrium, from about 0.001 to about 3 percent boron, from about 1 to about 10 percent silicon, balance nickel and incidental impurities. The coating is preferably applied by mixing together two powders, one with a higher solidus temperature and one with a lower solidus temperature, whose net composition is that of the coating. The powder mixture is compacted with a binder, applied to a surface of the article, and heated to a temperature above the lower solidus temperature.
