Comparison Of Calcium-Magnesium-Alumina-Silicate (Cmas) Resistance Behavior Of Produced With Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition (Eb-Pvd) Method Ysz And Gd2Zr2O7/Ysz Thermal Barrier Coatings Systems

Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) are generally used in both industrial gas turbines and aircraft engines. In this study, metal powders with CoNiCrAlY content were coated on Inconel 718 nickel-based superalloy substrate materials using the cold gas dynamic spray (CGDS) method, which is a new generation thermal spray coating method. As a top coating, YSZ and Gd2Zr2O7/YSZ (GZO/YSZ), respectively, single and double layer ceramic layers were deposited with an innovative method, physical vapor deposition by electron beam (EB-PVD). All produced TBC systems were sprinkled with vermiculite powder containing CMAS minerals and subjected to CMAS corrosion tests and the effect of CMAS damage on the phase stability and microstructure of TBC systems was determined using elemental mapping analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). According to the results obtained, it has been determined that the double layer TBC system with GZO/YSZ is more resistant to CMAS damage than the single layer YSZ system.
