High Temperature EBC
for Silicon-based Ceramics

Coating systems are designed to protect materials of construction from harsh environmental conditions:

• Oxidation and Hydrothermal corrosion
• Metal dusting, H2S, Syngas, and reducing environments

We have a flexible approach to applying coatings. Our coatings are geared to reduce the environmental degradation:

(1) Oxidation:

• Recession and embrittlement of metals and ceramics.

(2) Reduction:

• Embrittlement of ceramics with low activation energy for vacancy formation.
• Embrittlement and/or dusting of many metals.

(3) Corrosion:

• Dissolution of metals.

(4) Chemical degradation:

• Reactions to form new phases, typically with gases or liquids.

Often choosing a different material or changing the environment is not possible. Hence, coatings perform a critical function:

• Utilise properties of desired substrates and use a coating that is stable in the required environments.
• A flexible, coating system to apply coatings of dissimilar materials nto substrates designed for use at high temperatures.
• Non-vacuum, low-cost processing.
• Preserves, or enhances, mechanical properties of substrates.

Coatings are suitable for:

• Oxide and non-oxide ceramic substrates
• Metallic substrates
• Oxide and non-oxide ceramic outer coatings
