摘要:
Coating systems and processes by which the coating systems can be deposited to be resistant to contaminants, and particularly resistant to infiltration and damage caused by CMAS. The coating systems include inner and outer ceramic layers. The inner ceramic layer consists essentially of zirconia stabilized by about 6 to about 9 weight percent yttria and optionally contains greater than 0.5 to 10 weight percent hafnium oxide. The outer ceramic layer overlies and contacts the inner ceramic layer to define the outermost surface of the coating system. The outer ceramic layer consists essentially of zirconia stabilized by about 25 to about 75 weight percent yttria, has a thickness that is less than the thickness of the inner ceramic layer and further contains greater than 0.5 to 10 weight percent hafnium oxide and optionally 1 to 10 weight percent tantalum oxide. The outer ceramic layer has a porosity level that is lower than that of the inner ceramic layer.

摘要:
A thermal barrier coating for an underlying metal substrate of articles that operate at, or are exposed to, high temperatures, as well as being exposed to environmental contaminant compositions. This coating comprises an inner layer nearest to the underlying metal substrate comprising a ceramic thermal barrier coating material, as well as an outer layer having an exposed surface and comprising a CMAS-reactive material in an amount up to 100% and sufficient to protect the thermal barrier coating at least partially against CMAS that becomes deposited on the exposed surface, the CMAS-reactive material comprising an alkaline earth aluminate or alkaline earth aluminosilicate where the alkaline earth is selected from barium, strontium and mixtures thereof, and optionally a ceramic thermal barrier coating material. This coating can be used to provide a thermally protected article having a metal substrate and optionally a bond coat layer adjacent to and overlaying the metal substrate. The thermal barrier coating can be prepared by forming the inner layer of the ceramic thermal barrier coating material, followed by depositing the CMAS-reactive material, or codepositing the CMAS-reactive material and the ceramic thermal barrier coating material, to form the outer layer.

摘要:
A protective coating system and method for protecting a thermal barrier coating from CMAS infiltration. The coating system comprises inner and outer alumina layers and a platinum-group metal layer therebetween. The outer alumina layer is intended as a sacrificial layer that reacts with molten CMAS, forming a compound with a melting temperature significantly higher than CMAS. As a result, the reaction product of the outer alumina layer and CMAS resolidifies before it can infiltrate the TBC. The platinum-group metal layer is believed to serve as a barrier to infiltration of CMAS into the TBC, while the inner alumina layer appears to enhance the ability of the platinum-group metal layer to prevent CMAS infiltration.
摘要:
Improved adhesion of thermal barrier coating systems to nonmetallic substrates using a layer of silica on an underlying nonmetallic substrate that includes a silicon containing material is described. The improved adhesion occurs because the improved thermal barrier system improves the temperature capability of the system by providing a layer adjacent the substrate that has improved thermal performance and that is not subject to deterioration. The application of a silica layer of predetermined thickness adjacent the substrate also forms a diffusion barrier for oxygen while eliminating the need to transform an external layer of the substrate by a pre-oxidation step. This diffusion barrier prevents any oxidizable component of the substrate from decomposing. The thermal/environmental barrier coating (T/EBC) system includes an intermediate layer containing YSZ and BSAS, mullite and/or alumina, which is preferably used in combination with a mullite layer that overlies the surface of the silica layer, a layer of BSAS between the mullite layer and the intermediate layer, and a thermal barrier coating of YSZ overlying the intermediate layer.

摘要:
A thermal barrier coating and deposition process for a component intended for use in a hostile thermal environment, such as the turbine, combustor and augmentor components of a gas turbine engine. The TBC has a first coating portion on at least a first surface portion of the component. The first coating portion is formed of a ceramic material to have at least an inner region, at least an outer region overlying the inner region, and a columnar microstructure whereby the inner and outer regions comprise columns of the ceramic material. The columns of the inner region are more closely spaced than the columns of the outer region so that the inner region of the first coating portion is denser than the outer region of the first coating portion, wherein the higher density of the inner region promotes the impact resistance of the first coating portion.
摘要:
Methods for providing improved resistance to CMAS infiltration for hot section components of a gas turbine engine. Exemplary methods include coating a substrate with a thermal barrier coating system by overlying a bond coated substrate with an inner thermal barrier layer comprised of a thermal barrier material such as yttria-stabilized zirconia. A top layer, including a rare-earth aluminate, is deposited so as to overlie at least a portion of the inner layer. Deposition processes and coating thicknesses may be tailored to the type of component to be coated.
