Moreover, the pitting corrosion and oxidation phenomena engendered inside cooling channels of the turbine blade are utterly highlighted. Other features such as the η (Ni3, Ti) platelets nucleation, needle σ-phase precipitation at the interface NiPtAl/(DS) GTD-111 substrate are exhibited as well. Finally, the different microstructural changes in (NiPtAl) coating strata against hot corrosion, oxidation and interaction with (DS) GTD-111 substrate are revealed and argued.en(DS) GTD-111 superalloyErosionPitting corrosionNeedle r-phasec0- Ni3 (Al, Ti) precipitatesAnalysis of a Directionally Solidified (DS) GTD-111 Turbine Blade FailureArticle
