Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) used in gas-turbine engines afford higher operating temperatures, resulting in enhanced efficiencies and performance. However, during aero engine operation, environmentally ingested airborne particles, which includes mineral debris, sand dust and volcanic ashes get ingested by the turbine with the intake air. As engine temperatures increase, the finer debris tends to adhere to the coating surface and form calcium magnesium alumino-silicate (CMAS) melts that penetrate the open void spaces in the coating. Upon cooling at the end of an operation cycle, the melt freezes and the infiltrated volume of the coating becomes rigid and starts to spall by losing its ability to accommodate strains arising from the thermal expansion mismatch with the underlying metal. The state-of-the-art ZrO2-7-weight% Y2O3 (YSZ) coatings are susceptible to the aforementioned degradation. Rare-earth zirconates have generated substantial interest as novel thermal barrier coatings (TBC) based primarily on their intrinsically lower thermal conductivity and higher resistance to sintering than YSZ. In addition, the pyrochlore zirconates are stable as single phases at up to their melting point. La2Zr2O7 (LZ) is one among such candidates. Hence, the present study focusses on the comparison of cyclic molten CMAS infiltration behaviour of the base metal Inconel 738 (BM), the bond coat NiCrAlY (BC), the duplex YSZ, the LZ coating and a five layered coated specimen with LZ as top layer. Among those coatings mentioned above, the five layer coated specimen showed excellent CMAS infiltration resistance under thermal cycling conditions.
