Methods for forming sintered-bonded high temperature coatings over ceramic turbomachine components are provided, as are ceramic turbomachine components having such high temperature coatings formed thereover. In one embodiment, the method includes the step or process of removing a surface oxide layer from the ceramic component body of a turbomachine component to expose a treated surface of the ceramic component body. A first layer of coating precursor material, which has a solids content composed predominately of at least one rare earth silicate by weight percentage, is applied to the treated surface. The first layer of the coating precursor material is then heat treated to sinter the solids content and form a first sintered coating layer bonded to the treated surface. The steps of applying and sintering the coating precursor may be repeated, as desired, to build a sintered coating body to a desired thickness over the ceramic component body.

Methods for fabricating wires insulated by low porosity glass coatings are provided, as are high temperature electromagnetic (EM) devices containing such wires. In embodiments, a method for fabricating a high temperature EM device includes applying a glass coating precursor material onto a wire. The glass coating precursor material contains a first plurality of glass particles having an initial softening point. after application onto the wire, the glass coating precursor material is heat treated under process conditions producing a crystallized intermediary glass coating having a modified softening point exceeding the initial softening point. The crystallized intermediary glass coating is then infiltrated with a filler glass precursor material containing a second plurality of glass particles. After infiltration, the filler glass precursor material is heat treated to consolidate the second plurality of glass particles into the crystallized intermediary glass coating and thereby yield a low porosity glass coating adhered to the wire.

Ionic liquid bath plating methods for depositing aluminum-containing layers utilizing shaped consumable aluminum anodes are provided, as are turbomachine components having three dimensionally-tailored, aluminum-containing coatings produced from such aluminum-containing layers. In one embodiment, the ionic liquid bath plating method includes the step or process of obtaining a consumable aluminum anode including a workpiece-facing anode surface substantially conforming with the geometry of the non-planar workpiece surface. The workpiece-facing anode surface and the non-planar workpiece surface are positioned in an adjacent, non-contacting relationship, while the workpiece and the consumable aluminum anode are submerged in an ionic liquid aluminum plating bath. An electrical potential is then applied across the consumable aluminum anode and the workpiece to deposit an aluminum-containing layer onto the non-planar workpiece surface. In certain implementations, additional steps are then performed to convert or incorporate the aluminum-containing layer into a high temperature aluminum-containing coating, such as an aluminide coating.
