Abstract

Advanced environmental barrier coating bond coat systems with higher temperature capabilities and environmental resistance are disclosed. These bond coat systems can be applied to ceramic substrates such as SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composite substrates, and can provide protection from extreme temperature, mechanical loading and environmental conditions, such as in high temperature gas turbines. Example bond coat systems can include either an advanced silicon/silicide component, an oxide/silicate component, or a combination thereof.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An article, comprising:
a substrate; and
a bond coat system in contact with the substrate, wherein the bond coat system comprises a bond coat layer, and wherein the bond coat layer comprises a first component comprising a rare earth doped iron silicide and a second component comprising at least one oxide.

2. The article of claim 1 , wherein the at least one oxide comprises HfO 2 .

3. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat layer comprises a layered composite comprising alternating layers of the first and second components.

4. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat layer comprises a mixture phased region with low oxygen activities, wherein the mixture phased region has a silicon concentration that decreases with increasing distance from the substrate.

5. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat system comprises a first interlayer between the bond coat layer and the substrate, and a second interlayer in contact with a face of the bond coat layer opposite the substrate.

6. The article of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the first interlayer or the second interlayer comprises one of a silicon alloy, hafnium oxide, zirconium oxide, and a rare earth oxide.

7. The article of claim 1 , further comprising an environmental barrier coating top coat in contact with a face of the bond coat system opposite the substrate.

8. The article of claim 7 , wherein the environmental barrier top coat comprises one or more of a rare earth silicate and a rare earth aluminosilicate.

9. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat layer comprises one or more rare earth oxide dopants.

10. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat layer comprises at least 40% silicon by atomic percentage.

11. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat layer has a thickness less than or equal to forty micrometers.

12. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat layer self-grows an environmental barrier coating.

13. The article of claim 1 , wherein the bond coat layer has a flexural strength of at least 100 MPa at one or more temperatures in the range from 1400° C. to 1500° C.

14. An article, comprising:
a substrate; and
a bond coat system in contact with the substrate, wherein the bond coat system comprises a first interlayer in contact with the substrate, a bond coat layer in contact with the first interlayer, and a second interlayer in contact with the bond coat layer, wherein the bond coat layer comprises a rare earth doped iron silicide and at least one oxide, wherein the bond coat comprises at least 40% silicon by atomic percentage.
