Abstract

High-performance gas turbines and aircraft engines necessitate MCrAlY (M = Ni, Co, or Ni/Co) coatings with exceptional oxidation resistance. Pre-heat-treatment can enhance the performance of MCrAlY bond coatings in the following ways: First, it reduces the porosity of the bond coating and promotes the diffusion of elements within it. Second, pre-heat-treatment allows for the formation of a continuous, dense, and moderately thick layer of pure Al2O3 scale, which helps to delay the formation of mixed oxides. Lastly, proper pre-heat-treatment can increase the grain size of the Al2O3 scale, leading to a lower growth rate of the oxide scale. Additionally, this article proposes new directions for developing more reasonable and effective pre-heat-treatment methods, laying the foundation for the creation of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) with greater durability and higher performance.
