摘要:
A turbine engine component includes an electron beam-physical vapor deposition thermal barrier coating covering at least a portion of a substrate. The thermal barrier coating includes an inner layer having a columnar-grained microstructure with inter-columnar gap porosity. The inner layer includes a stabilized ceramic material. The thermal barrier coating also includes a substantially non-porous outer layer, covering the inner layer and including the stabilized ceramic material. The outer layer is deposited with continuous line-of-sight exposure to the vapor source under oxygen deficient conditions. The outer layer may further comprise a dopant oxide that is more readily reducible than the stabilized ceramic material. During deposition, the outer layer may also have an oxygen deficient stoichiometry with respect to the inner layer. Oxygen stoichiometry in the outer layer may be restored by exposure of the coated component to an oxidizing environment.
摘要:
A component for a turbine engine component includes a ceramic substrate having a surface, an environmental barrier layer bonded to the substrate surface, and an impact-resistance layer bonded to the environmental barrier layer, the impact-resistance layer having a melting point higher than about 2700° F., and further having a between about 10 and about 30% porosity. The impact-resistance layer, environmental barrier layer, and interfaces at which the environmental layer is bound to the substrate surface and the impact-resistance layer are more readily shearable than the substrate. A method for protecting a turbine engine component from environmental and particle impact-related damage includes the steps of coating a substrate surface with the environmental barrier layer, and coating the environmental barrier layer with the impact-resistance layer.

摘要:
A component comprising a silicon-based substrate and a diffusion barrier coating disposed on the silicon-based substrate. The diffusion barrier coating comprises an isolation layer disposed directly on the silicon-based substrate and at least one oxygen barrier layer disposed on the isolation layer. The oxygen barrier layer prevents the diffusion of oxygen therethrough, and prevents excessive oxidation of the silicon-based substrate. The isolation layer(s) prevent contaminants and impurities from reacting with the oxygen barrier layer. An environmental barrier coating may be disposed on the diffusion barrier coating, and a thermal barrier coating may be disposed on the environmental barrier coating. Methods for making a component having a diffusion barrier coating are also disclosed.

摘要:
A durable protective coating may be formed by applying a thin layer of metastable alumina to a bond coating on a substrate. A thermal barrier coating may then be applied to the metastable alumina and the resulting part may be heat treated to transform the metastable alumina to a mixed alpha alumina having particles of the thermal barrier coating, such as zirconia in the case of an yttria stabilized zirconia thermal barrier coating, dispersed therein. The resulting thermal barrier coating may inhibit microbuckling of the thermally grown oxide scale that grows over time at the thermal barrier coating-bond coating interface.

A protective barrier coating system including a diffusion barrier coating and an oxidation barrier coating and method for use in protecting silicon-based ceramic turbine engine components. A complete barrier coating system includes a thermal barrier coating of stabilized zirconia and an environmental barrier coating of an alloyed tantalum oxide. The oxidation barrier coating includes a layer of metallic silicates formed on a substrate of silicon nitride or silicon carbide to be protected. The oxidation barrier coating can include silicates of scandium, ytterbia or yttrium. The oxidation barrier coating may also include an inner layer of Si2ON2 between the diffusion barrier and the metallic silicate layer. The oxidation barrier coating can be applied to the substrate by spraying, slurry dipping and sintering, by a sol-gel process followed by sintering, by plasma spray, or by electron beam-physical vapor deposition. The diffusion layer of essentially pure Si3N4 can be applied to the substrate to prevent the migration of damaging cations from the protective layers to the substrate and is preferably formed by chemical vapor deposition. A method for protecting silicon based substrates can comprise a step of forming an oxidation barrier coating on a substrate, where a step of forming the oxidation barrier includes a step of sintering the oxidation barrier and substrate in a wet gas containing hydrogen.
