Abstract

A method is for producing a metal undercoat made from platinum on a metallic substrate. The method includes providing a metallic part forming a substrate, providing an electrolyte bath formed from an ionic liquid medium with one or more aluminium salts, depositing a first layer of a first metal on the substrate so as to obtain a substrate coated with the first metallic layer, depositing a second layer of a second metal on the first layer so as to obtain a substrate coated with the first metallic layer and the second metallic layer. One of the first metal and the second metal is a metal of the platinum group (platinoid) and the other from the first metal and the second metal is aluminium deposited by electroplating with the electrolyte bath formed from an ionic liquid medium.

First claim

1 . A method for producing a metallic undercoat based on platinoid on a metallic substrate, comprising:
a) providing a metallic part forming a substrate, b) providing an electrolyte bath formed from an ionic liquid medium with one or more aluminium salts, c) depositing a first layer of a first metal on the substrate so as to obtain a substrate coated with the first metallic layer, d) depositing a second layer of a second metal on the first layer so as to obtain a substrate coated with the first metallic layer and the second metallic layer, wherein one of the first metal and the second metal is a metal of the platinum group (platinoid), the other from the first metal and the second metal is aluminium deposited by electroplating with said electrolyte bath formed from an ionic liquid medium, and the aluminium layer has a thickness between 10 and 50 μm.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises a diffusion heat treatment step of the coated substrate, said diffusion heat treatment step being applied on the coated substrate of the first metallic layer and/or on the coated substrate of the first metallic layer and of the second metallic layer.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said metallic substrate is made of superalloy.

4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein said metallic substrate is made of superalloy based on nickel.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein during the deposition step of the platinoid layer, the following sub-steps are conducted:
providing an ionic liquid medium or water-based electrolyte bath comprising a metal of the platinum group in solution, and performing the electroplating of a layer of said metal of the platinum group with said electrolyte bath so as to obtain said coated substrate.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said ionic liquid medium forming said electrolyte bath comprises by way of cation one from 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (EMI), 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium (BMP), and 1-propyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium (PMP), and by way of anion one from chlorine (Cl), bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (NTF 2 or TFSI) and bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (NF 2 or FSI).

7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said ionic liquid medium forming said electrolyte bath comprises aluminium trichloride (AlCl 3 ) and/or aluminium Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Al(III)NTf 2 ) by way of aluminium salt.

8 . A thermomechanical part with a metallic undercoat based on platinum obtained by a production method according to claim 1 , wherein said part is a portion of an outer or inner ferrule of a turbine, or a portion of the wall of a combustion chamber.

9 . A turbine engine comprising a thermomechanical part according to claim 8 .
