Abstract
A high rhenium containing single crystal superalloy (30) is chromized, or coated with cobalt, before the conventional aluminising process steps to modify the surface of the high rhenium containing single crystal superalloy to prevent the formation of topologically close packed phases at the interface between the aluminide coating (32) and the rhenium containing single crystal superalloy. The invention is particularly applicable to platinum aluminide coatings, platinum aluminide-silicide coatings and aluminide-silicide coatings.
