Abstract
A gas turbine component article has an airfoil section and is formed of a nickel-base superalloy. An unmasked region of the airfoil section has a platinum aluminide protective coating, and a masked region of the airfoil section has an aluminide coating. The platinum aluminide preferably is deposited at a trailing edge of the airfoil section that is susceptible to low-cycle fatigue damage when a platinum aluminide coating is present.
