Abstract
The corrosion resistance of micro-and nano-structured scandia and yttria codoped zirconia (nano-4mol%SYSZ and micro-8.6SYSZ) and yttria doped zirconia (4YSZ) in the presence of molten vanadium oxide were investigated. To this end, duplex TBCs (thermal barrier coatings), composed of a bond coat (NiCrAlY) and a top coat (4SYSZ or 4YSZ), were deposited on the IN738LC Ni-based supper-alloy by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS). The corrosion studies of plasma sprayed TBCs were conducted in 25mgV2O5 molten salt at 910°C for different times. The nanostructured coating, as compared to its micro-structured counterpart, in spite of a further reaction with the V2O5 salt, showed a higher degradation resistance during the corrosion test due to increased compliance capabilities resulting from the presence of an extra source of porosity associated with the nano-zones. Finally, the corrosion resistance and degradation mechanism of SYSZ and YSZ coatings were compared with the presence of molten NaVO3 and V2O5 salt, respectively.
