The influence of calcium–magnesium–aluminosilicate deposits on internal stresses in Yb_2Si_2O_7 multilayer environmental barrier coatings

Abstract

The interaction of calcium-magnesium-aluminosilicates (CMAS) with Yb_2Si_2O_7-based multilayer environmental barrier coatings was studied using a combination of high-energy synchrotron X-ray techniques. Changes in the phase-specific stresses and lattice spacings as a function of temperature were investigated with wide-angle X-ray scattering. Small-angle X-ray scattering was used to study the interaction of CMAS with nanoporosity, while X-ray computed tomography was used to study the formation of cracks in the coating. It was found that CMAS interacts strongly with the Yb_2Si_2O_7 topcoat, leading to changes in lattice spacing, alterations of the ambient temperature stresses, and large cracks in the CMAS that extend through the topcoat.
