Abstract

Ceria-yttria stabilized zirconia (CYSZ) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) were deposited by air plasma spraying on NiCoCrAlY-coated Inconel 738LC substrates. After that, the surface of plasma sprayed CYSZ TBCs were glazed using a pulsed Nd:YAG laser. The effects of laser glazing on hot corrosion resistance of the coatings were evaluated in presence of 45wt%Na2SO4+55wt%V2O5 corrosive molten salt at 1000°C. The results revealed that the hot corrosion resistance of plasma sprayed CYSZ TBCs were enhanced more than twofold by laser surface glazing due to reducing specific reactive area of the dense glazed surface layer and consequently, decreasing the reaction between molten salt and zirconia stabilizers.
