Isothermal Oxidation Behavior of Zr-Y Coating on γ-TiAl by Double Glow Plasma Surface Metal Alloying Technique

摘要

Oxidation resistance of Zr-Y coating on γ-TiAl alloy prepared by a double-glow plasma surface alloying technique was investigated in static air at 750 °C, 800 °C and 850 °C for 100 h. A pure Zr coating was also prepared for comparison. Addition of Y improved high-temperature oxidation resistance of the alloying coating because of its refining effect and inhibition of cationic diffusion. Oxidation kinetic curves indicated that the high-temperature oxidation resistance of the Zr-Y coating was about eight times higher than that of the bare substrate and about 3 times higher than that of pure Zr coating.
