Abstract

General information is provided on the most commonly used and promising erosion-resistant and corrosion-resistant ion-plasma coatings for the protection of gas turbine engine parts. A brief analysis of the main methods of applying protective coatings to parts of the gas turbine engine compressor is carried out. The strengths and weaknesses of the coatings used are shown, as well as some properties such as erosion and corrosion resistance and operating temperature. The main development trends in the field of erosion-corrosion-resistant ion-plasma coatings are considered. The issues of the peculiarities of applying protective coatings to large-sized parts of the gas turbine engine compressor are discussed.
