EFFECT OF HOT CORROSION AND OXIDATION ON COBALT - BASE SUPERALLOYS COATED BY ALUMINUM WITH PRESENCE OF THERMAL BARRIER ZRO2 AND MIXTURE OF (NACL) AND (NA2SO4) STEAMSALTSAT HIGH TEMPERATURES

The aim of the study was to investigate the Mechanisms properties of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) to enhance of performance evaluation characteristics and develop TBCs.Cobalt –base superalloy has been used as a substrate and zirconium stabilized Aluminum as ceramic topcoat , in addition the study include degradation behavior of system during thermal cycling (3hr per cycle in furnace) the failure of the aluminized was due to thermally grown oxide (TGO) interface. The fractures propagatethrough the interface and produce a deformation of the bond coating . the effect of cycle will result a spallation failure of the TBCsand this is also corresponding to a slightdegradation .The steam of salt (Nacl)and(Na2So4) mixture will affecton the coating lifetimes .The high temperature have a strong effect thermally grown oxide (TGO) which consistent with a first order growth of scale failer variation.
