Abstract

The oxidation resistance of the bond coat in thermal barrier coating systems has significant influence on thermal cycling performance of the protective coating. In this study, the influence of varying the alumina content of plasma-sprayed oxide dispersion strengthened bond coats with CoNiCrAlY matrix material on the oxidation resistance was analysed by thermogravimetric analysis, SEM and TEM. Yttrium ions at the alumina scale grain boundaries and the grain size in the scale appear as major factors influencing oxidation properties. The ODS material with 2, 10 and 30 wt% alumina content was applied in TBC systems as an additional thin bond coat. The thermal cycling performance of those advanced TBC systems, in burner rig tests, was evaluated with respect to the ODS material properties. Thermal cycling behaviour is in good correlation with the isothermal oxidation resistance. All results indicate that TBC systems with 10 wt% alumina content in the ODS bond coat have a superior thermal cycling performance, as compared to ODS bond coats with lower or higher alumina content.
