Abstract
Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are frequently used on hot section components in gas turbines. Corrosive gases coming from the combustion of low grade fuels may penetrate deeply into the coating and lead to the hot corrosion degradation of the coating. This paper investigates the hot corrosion resistance of a conventional yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coating and a YSZ+Gd 2Zr 2O 7 composite coating, in Na 2SO 4+V 2O 5 at 1050°C For the conventional YSZ coating, the YSZ reacts with V 2O 5 to form rod-type YVO 4 crystals during the exposure to the molten salt, leading to the formation of monoclinic phase of ZrO 2. For the Gd 2Zr 2O 7+YSZ composite coating, by the formation of GdVO 4, the amount of YVO 4 formed on the YSZ+Gd 2Zr 2O 7 composite coating is significantly reduced, thus the amount of monoclinic phase in the TBC coating is substantially reduced, which renders YSZ+Gd 2Zr 2O 7 composite coating a better hot corrosion resistance than that of YSZ.
