• VA corrosion-induced microstructure development of YSZ TBCs is investigated in detail.
• VA penetrates through the entire YSZ layer and fully fills the intercolumnar gaps.
• VA-corroded YSZ layer undergoes grain growth and becomes well-connected.
• The different reaction products are found across the YSZ layer.
• The anorthite-induced crack may initiate the exfoliation of the YSZ coating.
Y2O3-stabilized ZrO2 (YSZ) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) grown on a polycrystalline alumina (Al2O3) substrate are corroded by a natural volcanic ash (VA) at 1150 °C. The VA corrosion-induced microstructure development and composition evolution across the YSZ coating layer and at the VA/YSZ and YSZ/Al2O3 interfaces are investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It is found that the VA-corroded YSZ coating undergoes grain growth and becomes well-connected along the deposition direction. It is shown that VA-molten depositions penetrate through the entire YSZ layer and fully fill the intercolumnar gaps in the YSZ layer, which results in crystalline ZrSiO4 precipitates between the intercolumnar gaps near the VA/YSZ interface and anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8) precipitates at the YSZ/Al2O3 interface with the micro-crack formation. The growth stresses associated with the anorthite precipitation is suggested as the driving force to initiate the degradation of TBCs at the YSZ/Al2O3 interface region.
