Abstract

Two kinds of Si-B-Y co-deposition coatings on an Nb-Ti-Si based alloy were prepared by pack cementation method and their microstructure and oxidation behavior were investigated. Results indicated that the coating prepared with higher B content in the pack was comprised of a porous NbB2 outer layer, a NbSi2 intermediate layer and a transitional layer, while the coating prepared with less B content in the pack consisted of a NbSi2 outer layer with NbB2 dispersed in its upper part and a transitional layer. The oxidation tests showed that both the coatings can provide a good protection at 850°C within 100h. However, the coating prepared with higher B was non-protective at 1250°C, and the formed scale was brittle and can peel off easily. The coating prepared with less B content exhibited a good oxidation resistance at 1250°C, which should be attributed to the compactness of the coating, a proper B content and the Y elements in the coating.
