Abstract (en)

Disclosed herein is a method for aluminiding an internal passage of a metal substrate comprising injecting a slurry composition that comprises a powder comprising aluminum, a binder selected from the group consisting of colloidal silica, an organic resin, and a combination thereof, into the internal passage; applying compressed air to the internal passage to facilitate distribution of the slurry composition throughout the internal passage; and, heat treating the slurry composition under conditions sufficient to remove volatile components from the composition, and to cause diffusion of aluminum into a surface of the internal passage.
