Abstract

Comparisons have been made in laboratory isothermal and cyclic oxidation tests of the degradation of oxide scales grown on single crystal superalloy substrates and bond coating alloys intended for use in thermal barrier coatings systems. The influence of desulfurization of the superalloy and bond coating, of reactive element addition to the bond coating alloy, and of oxidation temperature on the spallation behavior of the alumina scales formed was assessed from oxidation kinetics and from SEM observations of the microstructure and composition of the oxide scales. Desulfurization of nickel-base superalloy (in the absence of a Y addition) resulted in an increase in the lifetime of a state-of-the-art thermal barrier coating applied to it compared to a Y-free, non-desulfurized version of the alloy. The lifetime of the same ceramic coating applied without a bond coating to a non-desulfurized model alloy that formed an ideal alumina scale was also found to be at least four times longer than on the Y-doped superalloy plus state-of-the-art bond coating combination. Some explanations are offered of the factors controlling the degradation of such coatings.

Evaluation of TBC-coated {beta}-NiAl substrates without a bond coat

Conference Pint, B; Nagaraj, B; Rosenzweig, M

{beta}-NiAl substrates with various alloy additions and oxide dispersions were coated with Y{sub 2}O{sub 3}-stabilized ZrO{sub 2} using electron beam-physical vapor deposition. Cyclic oxidation experiments (1000-1200 C) were conducted to study effect of substrate dopants such as Y and Zr on coating lifetime without the intermediate metallic bond coat layer used in conventional thermal barrier coatings. Oxidation kinetics and Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} scale microstructures were compared to those for uncoated substrates. Degradation of substrate-alumina interface by void formation was the primary mechanism leading to coating spallation. Coating lifetime was correlated to alumina scale adhesion on unocated substrates.

Effects of bond coat preoxidation on the properties of ZrO sub 2 -8wt. % Y sub 2 O sub 3 /Ni-22Cr-10Al-1Y thermal-barrier coatings

Journal Article Lih, W; Chang, E; Wu, B; ... - Oxidation of Metals; (United States)

Plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) consist of an intermediate MCrAlY bond coat to protect the substrate superalloy from oxidation/hot corrosion and a thermal insulating zirconia-based ceramic top coat. This system is developed for advanced turbine-engine, hot-section components. In this study the as-sprayed NI-22Cr-10Al-1Y bond coat was subjected to preoxidation treatment of 1,000C for 1, 50, 100, and 200 hr, also at 1,100C, 1,200C and 1,300C for 1 hr to form an oxide scale before subsequent deposition of a ZrO{sub 2}-8wt% Y{sub 2}O{sub 3} top coat. The oxidation kinetics were measured, and the phase constitution and morphology of pregrown oxides onmore »« less
Aluminide Coatings for Power-Generation Applications

Technical Report Zhang, Y

Aluminide coatings are of interest for many high temperature applications because of the possibility of improving the oxidation of structural alloys by forming a protective external alumina scale. In order to develop a comprehensive lifetime evaluation approach for aluminide coatings used in fossil energy systems, some of the important issues have been addressed in this report for aluminide coatings on Fe-based alloys (Task I) and on Ni-based alloys (Task II). In Task I, the oxidation behavior of iron aluminide coatings synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) was studied in air + 10vol.% H{sub 2}O in the temperature range of 700-800more »« less

Influence of EB-PVD TBC Microstructure on Thermal Barrier Coating System Performance Under Cyclic Conditions

Conference Leyens, C; Pint, B; Schulz, U; ...

The lifetimes of electron beam physical vapor deposited (EB-PVD) thermal barrier coating systems (TBCs) with three different microstructures of the Y₂O₃-stabilized ZrO, YSZ) ceramic top layer were investigated in lh thermal cycles at 1100 and 1150°C in flowing oxygen. Single crystal alloys CMSX-4 and Rene N5 that had been coated with an EB-PVD NiCoCrAlY bond coat were chosen as substrate materials. At 1150°C all samples failed after 80-100, lh cycles, predominantly at the bond coat/alumina interface after cooling down from test temperature. The alumina scale remained adherent to the YSZ after spallation. Despite the different YSZ microstructures no clear tendencymore »« less

Composition Effects on Aluminide Oxidation Performance: Objectives for Improved Bond Coats

Conference Pint, BA

Formerly, the role of metallic coatings on Ni-base superalloys was simply to limit environmental attack of the underlying substrate. However, a new paradigm has been established for metallic coatings adapted as bond coats for thermal barrier coatings. It is no longer sufficient for the coating to just minimize the corrosion rate. The metallic coating must also form a slow-growing external Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} layer beneath the overlying low thermal conductivity ceramic top coat. This thermally grown oxide or scale must have near-perfect adhesion in order to limit spallation of the top coat, thereby achieving a long coating lifetime. While oxidationmore »« less
