Abstract

It has been found that the yttrium content of NiCoCrAlY coatings affects the useful lives of such coatings during cyclic oxidation. In particular, NiCoCrAlY coatings with 0.1wt% yttrium have more than twice the lifetime at 1100°C compared to NiCoCrAlY coatings with 0.5wt% yttrium. The mechanism by which the yttrium concentration influences the degradation of NiCoCrAlY coatings will be described. It has also been observed that the adverse effect of yttrium can be inhibited by reducing the roughness of the coating surface. The influence of surface condition on the oxidation of yttrium in NiCoCrAlY coatings will be examined in detail and the effects of surface roughness on the oxidation of NiCoCrAlY and platinum aluminide coatings will be compared. Finally the effects of yttrium in the substrate alloy on the oxidation of platinum aluminide coatings will be discussed.
