METHODS TO IMPROVE HOT WORKABILITY OF METAL ALLOYS

摘要

The method of processing an alloy workpiece to reduce thermal cracking may include spraying a metal coating material onto at least a portion of the surface of the alloy workpiece to form a surface coating that is metallurgically bonded to the alloy workpiece. The surface coating can be softer than the alloy workpiece and reduce heat loss from the alloy workpiece.
