Hot Corrosion of Stabilized Zirconia Thermal Barrier Coatings and the Role of Mg Inhibitor
The 3–4 mol% yttria‐stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is widely used as a material for thermal barrier coating; however, the corrosive constituents present in fuel typically result in mechanical disintegration of YSZ coatings. The 3–4 mol% YSZ coatings with respective porosity of ~3% and ~22% have been unde...

Summary: | The 3–4 mol% yttria‐stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is widely used as a material for thermal barrier coating; however, the corrosive constituents present in fuel typically result in mechanical disintegration of YSZ coatings. The 3–4 mol% YSZ coatings with respective porosity of ~3% and ~22% have been undertaken with the objective to compare the hot corrosion behavior in air and sulfur‐rich atmospheres. The coatings are kept in contact with V2O5 + MgO powder mixture at 750°C for different dwell times of 24 and 76 h. The samples kept in air have shown intact YSZ layer for both the coatings, whereas a delamination of YSZ layer is observed for high porosity sample kept in sulfur‐rich atmosphere. XRD patterns of all the samples treated in sulfur‐rich atmosphere have indicated a phase transformation in YSZ from tetragonal to monoclinic. However, no such phase transformation has been found for samples treated in air. The V2O5‐induced hot corrosion attack on YSZ coating in air has been successfully inhibited by MgO, which forms a thermally stable Mg3V2O8 compound. However, in sulfur‐rich atmosphere, MgO is partially consumed to form sulfates, which allows certain fraction of V2O5 to react with Y2O3 causing the degradation of top coat. |
