Abstract
A multilayer coating, which consisted of a Cr–Si co-deposited layer as the diffusion barrier, a plasma sprayed NiCrAlY middle layer, and an aluminized top layer, was developed. During the aluminizing treatment, Cr in the NiCrAlY layer was released as the γ/γ′ structure of this layer transformed to the β phase. The released Cr was inhibited by the inner Cr–Si layer to diffuse into the substrate, and a Cr layer eventually formed over the Cr–Si layer. The Cr layer impeded the inward diffusion of Al due to the low solubility of Al in the Cr layer so that more Al atoms remain in the coating and contributed to the oxidation resistance of the coating. The multilayer coating exhibited better oxidation and spallation resistance than coatings without a Cr–Si layer, at least at 1050 °C for up to 1000 h.
