Abstract:
A multilayer thermal barrier coating (TBC) may include a plurality of layers selected to provide properties to the multilayer TBC. For example, a multilayer TBC may include a first layer deposited over a substrate, a second layer deposited over the first layer and a third layer deposited over the second layer. The first layer may be selected to provide thermal cycling resistance, the second layer may be selected to provide low thermal conductivity and the third layer may be selected to provide at least one of erosion resistance and CMAS degradation resistance. The multilayer TBC may also include two layers, or more than three layers.
Abstract:
A coating including a CMAS-resistant layer with a rare earth oxide. The CMAS-resistant layer is essentially free of zirconia and hafnia, and may further include at least one of alumina, silica, and combinations thereof.
Abstract:
A thermal barrier coating composition including a base oxide; a primary dopant including ytterbia; a first co-dopant including samaria; and a second co-dopant including at least one of lutetia, scandia, ceria, gadolinia, neodymia, or europia.
Abstract:
An abradable coating may include a rare earth silicate. The abradable coating may be deposited over a substrate, an environmental barrier coating, or a thermal barrier coating. The abradable coating may be deposited on a gas turbine blade track or a gas turbine blade shroud to form a seal between the gas turbine blade track or gas turbine blade shroud and a gas turbine blade. The abradable coating may also include a plurality of layers, such as alternating first and second layers including, respectively, a rare earth silicate and stabilized zirconia or stabilized hafnia.
Abstract:
A static chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process may be used to deposit a coating including a γ-Ni+γ′-Ni3Al phase constitution over a substrate. A static CVD process is performed in a closed system that may include the substrate, and coating material and an activator. The γ-Ni+γ′-Ni3Al coating may be modified by one or more additional elements, including, for example, Hf, Y, Zr, Ce, La, Si, Cr, Pt, or additional elements present in the substrate. A static CVD process may include co-deposition of two or more elements, and may also include sequential static CVD steps, each of which is performed in a closed system.

Abstract:
A silicon-base ceramic substrate is provided with a mullite coating by flame-spraying heated crystalline mullite powders onto a substrate that is preheated to a temperature in excess of 800.degree. C. The mullite immediately crystallizes as it solidifies.
Abstract:
An article may include a superalloy substrate and a calcia-magnesia-alumina-silicate (CMAS)-resistant thermal barrier coating (TBC) layer overlying the superalloy substrate. In some embodiments, the CMAS-resistant TBC layer includes between about 50 wt. % and about 90 wt. % of a TBC composition and between about 10 wt. % and about 50 wt. % of a CMAS-resistant composition. In some examples, the TBC composition includes at least one of yttria-stabilized zirconia, yttria-stabilized hafnia, zirconia stabilized with at least three rare earth oxides, or hafnia stabilized with at least three rare earth oxides. In some examples, the CMAS-resistant composition includes alumina, silica, and an oxide of at least one of Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Yb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Tb, or Lu.
