Abstract
A method is provided for applying a coating over a substrate surface of an engine component. The method includes inserting the engine component within a deposition chamber, heating the deposition chamber to a temperature between 325° C. and 500° C., supplying one or more precursors to the heated deposition chamber, subjecting the engine component to the one or more precursors for about five hours to form an inert oxide layer over the substrate surface of the engine component having a thickness of approximately 1-5 microns.
