Abstract
Intermetallic Ti-Al-Cr based coatings with small additions of yttrium or zirconium were deposited on the γ-TiAl alloys Ti-48-2-2 and TNM-B1 using magnetron sputtering. The oxidation behavior of the coated substrates was investigated in the temperature range between 850â¯Â°C and 950â¯Â°C under cyclic thermal exposure conditions in laboratory air. Excellent oxidation protection to both TiAl alloys was provided by the Ti-Al-Cr-Y coating in the studied temperature range for up to 1000 1â¯h-cycles. Similar results were obtained for the Ti-Al-Cr-Zr coating on the Ti-48-2-2 substrate. When thermally cycled at 900â¯Â°C and 950â¯Â°C, the latter protective layer deposited on the TNM-B1 alloy locally degraded probably caused by cracks in the coating leading to substrate oxidation. During high temperature exposure the microstructure of the coatings changed due to depletion in Al and Cr. Because alloy Ti-48-2-2 contains 2â¯at.% Cr and has a higher Al content compared to the TNM-B1 alloy, interdiffusion between coating and the Cr bearing substrate is reduced, retarding phase transformation in the oxidation protective layers.
