Lifetime of environmental/thermal barrier coatings deposited on a niobium silicide composite with boron containing M7Si6...
Environmental/thermal barrier coatings (E/TBCs) of yttria partially stabilised zirconia (YSZ), gadolinium zirconate (GZO) and a combination of Y2SiO5 and GZO were applied on a Nb/Nb5Si3-based alloy with the nominal composition of Nb-25Ti-8Hf-2Cr-2Al-16Si (at%). A B-containing M7Si6-based (M=Ti, Nb, Fe, Cr) layer produced by pack cementation was use...
