Abstract
In this research, the effects of thin Al2O3 diffusion barrier layer (including Y-containing small oxide precipitates) and nanostructured YSZ top coat on the high temperature oxidation behavior of HVOF NiCoCrAlTaY/APS YSZ coatings were examined by using isothermal oxidation tests at 1100 °C. Nanostructured YSZ top coat could slightly reduce the double layered TGO growth rate and weight gain of thermal barrier coating systems. However, Al2O3 diffusion barrier layer (consisting of Y-containing small oxide precipitates) could substantially decline the oxidation rate and Ta movement (Ta-enriched oxides formation) in the NiCoCrAlTaY/Al2O3/nanostructured YSZ coating at 1100 °C.
