The new concept of thermal barrier coatings with Pt + Pd/Zr/Hf-modified aluminide bond coat and ceramic layer formed by PS-PVD method

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are widely used for protection of gas turbine parts from high temperature and corrosion. In the present study, the new concept of TBCs with three-element-modified aluminide coatings was presented. In the first stage, the Pt and Pd were electroplated on MAR M247 nickel...

Description
Summary:Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are widely used for protection of gas turbine parts from high temperature and corrosion. In the present study, the new concept of TBCs with three-element-modified aluminide coatings was presented. In the first stage, the Pt and Pd were electroplated on MAR M247 nickel superalloy. In the next stage, the low-activity CVD aluminizing process with Zr or Hf doping was conducted. The ceramic layer containing yttria-stabilized zirconia was obtained by the plasma spray physical vapour deposition (PS-PVD) method. The microscopic examination showed the formation of aluminide coating containing up to 5 at% of Pt and 10 at% of Pd in (Ni, Pt, Pd)Al solid solution. The small concentration of Hf and Zr in diffusion zone of aluminide bond coat was noted as well. The outer ceramic layer was characterized by columnar structure typically formed during the PS-PVD process. The obtained results showed that the new concept of TBCs formed using new processes might be an attractive alternative to conventional coatings produced using the expensive electron beam physical vapour deposition (EB-PVD) method.
