Chemical Milling Process And Solution For Cast Titanium Alloys

View page
US Patent:
6793838, Sep 21, 2004
Filed:
Sep 28, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/967098
Inventors:
James O. Hansen - Glastonbury CT
Kenneth C. Long - Stuart FL
Michael A. Jackson - Springboro OH
Henry M. Hodgens - Rockville CT
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
C23F 100
US Classification:
216100, 216102, 216105, 216106, 216107, 216108, 216109
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a chemical milling solution and a chemical milling process for removing a desired depth of material from metal parts. The milling solution contains nitric acid, hydrofluoric acid, a wetting agent, such as a surfactant, dissolved titanium, and the balance water. The solution is maintained at a temperature in the range of from about 110Â F. to about 130Â F. The metal part to be milled is immersed in the milling solution for a time sufficient to remove a desired depth of material from at least one surface of the part.

Zinc-Diffused Alloy Coating For Corrosion/Heat Protection

View page
US Patent:
6869690, Mar 22, 2005
Filed:
May 19, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/848747
Inventors:
Henry M. Hodgens - Rockville CT, US
Thomas R. Hanlon - Colchester CT, US
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
B32B015/01
C25D005/48
C25D005/50
US Classification:
428658, 428659, 428679, 428941, 148537, 148533
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a zinc-diffused nickel alloy coating for corrosion and heat protection and to a method for forming such a coating. The coating method broadly comprises the steps of forming a plain nickel or nickel alloy coating layer on a substrate, applying a layer of zinc over the nickel or nickel alloy coating layer, and thermally diffusing the zinc into the nickel alloy coating layer. The coating method may further comprise immersing the coated substrate in a phosphated trivalent chromium conversion solution either before or after the diffusing step. The substrate may be a component used in a gas turbine engine, which component is formed from a steel material.

Recast Removal Method

View page
US Patent:
8236190, Aug 7, 2012
Filed:
Jun 13, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/138710
Inventors:
Michael J. Gehron - Stuart FL, US
Henry M. Hodgens - Fort Pierce FL, US
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
C03C 15/00
C03C 25/68
C25F 3/00
US Classification:
216109, 216 83, 216 96
Abstract:
A method of removing recast from a substrate is disclosed. The method includes chemically removing the recast using an etchant, which provides a visual indication of the presence of the recast when the part has been removed from the etchant. One example chemical etchant is comprised of a sulfuric acid solution that includes sodium chloride, sodium fluoride and ammonium persulfate. After chemical removal of the recast from the substrate, the recast is physically removed from the substrate, for example, by media blasting. The chemical and physical recast removal process can be repeated as desired. To ensure that all the recast has been removed, the substrate is wiped, for example, using a cloth. If all the recast has been removed, the cloth will not change in appearance or color.

Chemical Milling Solution For Reduced Hydrogen Absorption

View page
US Patent:
52175693, Jun 8, 1993
Filed:
Dec 31, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/816369
Inventors:
Henry M. Hodgens - Jupiter FL
Kenneth C. Long - Stuart FL
Robert E. Fishter - Boca Raton FL
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
B44C 122
C73F 100
US Classification:
156664
Abstract:
A solution is described for the chemical processing of beta phase-containing titanium alloys. The solution contains HNO. sub. 3 and HF, along with a small but effective amount of copper, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, platinum or gold to reduce hydrogen absorption, ammonium formate and citric acid to increase the milling rate, and a surfactant to ensure a satisfactory milled surface.

Ethylenethiourea Wear Resistant Electroless Nickel-Boron Coating Compositions

View page
US Patent:
49834282, Jan 8, 1991
Filed:
Jun 9, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/204311
Inventors:
Henry M. Hodgens - Jupiter FL
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
B05D 118
US Classification:

Method For Reducing Hydrogen Absorption During Chemical Milling

View page
US Patent:
54512999, Sep 19, 1995
Filed:
Dec 23, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/995433
Inventors:
Hugh M. Privett - Palm Beach Gardens FL
Henry M. Hodgens - Jupiter FL
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air
Force - Washington DC
International Classification:
H01L 2100
US Classification:
2041291
Abstract:
The invention provides method and apparatus for chemical milling of a metal part in a milling solution that reduces hydrogen absorption by the part wherein, the metal part to be milled, which serves as the anode, and a cathode of more noble metal than the anode, are mounted in such solution. Unlike the prior art, the cathode and anode are separated in such solution but electrically connected by a conductor therebetween, which conductor is insulated from the milling solution. Thus anode and cathode are mounted, spaced apart in the milling solution, so that metal dissolves from the anode surface, milling such part while electrons flow from anode to cathode by said conductor so that hydrogen forms at the cathode, removed from the anode part, to reduce hydrogen absorption by such part. The anode part can be of, eg. titanium and the cathode of a more noble metal, eg.

Composition For Cleaning A Gas Turbine Engine

View page
US Patent:
48349127, May 30, 1989
Filed:
Aug 3, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/081084
Inventors:
Henry M. Hodgens - Jupiter FL
William A. Cellich - Boynton Beach FL
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
C23G 102
US Classification:
252545
Abstract:
A composition and method for removing deposits (10) from the internal components (24) of a gas turbine engine (18) utilizing a cleaning composition (15) which comprises an aqueous solution of hydroxylamine sulfate, a chelating agent, a compound selected from the group consisting of ammonium sulfamate, ammonium sulfamide, and hydroxylamine-o-sulfonic acid, and, an alkaline pH modifying substance added in an amount sufficient to achieve a pH value of between 6. 5 and 14. The method involves contacting the deposits with the cleaning composition, such as in an apply and soak type pattern, chemically dislodging the deposits from the component surfaces. The engine is rinsed to remove the dislodged deposits and residual cleaning composition.
