Abstract

Al2O3/YSZ micro-laminated coatings with different layers were prepared on MCrAlY alloys by magnetron sputtering and characterized by high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Results indicated that the laminated structures of Al2O3 and YSZ layers were observed with compact microstructure and the thickness at sub-micron level each layer. High-temperature cyclic oxidation test at 1000°C in air was performed to investigate the oxidation and spallation resistance of the coatings on MCrAlY substrates. Result shows that the coatings exhibit more excellent oxidation and spallation resistance with the increase of the layers, which can be attributed to the increase of stress tolerance and fracture toughness in the laminated coatings by the thinner layers and crack deflection toughening.
