Abstract
An environmental barrier coating (EBC) with the alternative multilayer structure was fabricated by plasma-sprayed ZrO2-modified Yb2SiO5 and MoSi2 as sublayers. The water-vapor corrosion test at 1500 °C is up to 100 h revealing a structure transformation from ZrO2-Yb2SiO5 coating in which MoSi2 was the sublayer to ZrO2-Yb2Si2O7 coating in which SiO2 was the sublayer. By sacrificing the SiO2 phase, a structural evolution emerged from dissolved SiO2 to lamellar pores with volatilization of SiO2. Layer-by-layer spallation avoided the complete delamination of the composite coating, and the sacrificing of SiO2 can inhibit the inward invasion of oxygen and water vapor. The enhanced water vapor corrosion resistance and oxygen barrier effect of the multilayer coating contributed to the thin TGO-thickness of alternative multilayer EBC, as well as the long service life.
期刊介绍:
Surface and Coatings Technology is an international archival journal publishing scientific papers on significant developments in surface and interface engineering to modify and improve the surface properties of materials for protection in demanding contact conditions or aggressive environments, or for enhanced functional performance. Contributions range from original scientific articles concerned with fundamental and applied aspects of research or direct applications of metallic, inorganic, organic and composite coatings, to invited reviews of current technology in specific areas. Papers submitted to this journal are expected to be in line with the following aspects in processes, and properties/performance:
A. Processes: Physical and chemical vapour deposition techniques, thermal and plasma spraying, surface modification by directed energy techniques such as ion, electron and laser beams, thermo-chemical treatment, wet chemical and electrochemical processes such as plating, sol-gel coating, anodization, plasma electrolytic oxidation, etc., but excluding painting.
B. Properties/performance: friction performance, wear resistance (e.g., abrasion, erosion, fretting, etc), corrosion and oxidation resistance, thermal protection, diffusion resistance, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, and properties relevant to smart materials behaviour and enhanced multifunctional performance for environmental, energy and medical applications, but excluding device aspects.
