Abstract
A gas turbine engine article includes a substrate and an environmental barrier coating (EBC) system disposed on the substrate. The EBC system includes, from the substrate, a dense bond coat layer, a porous bond coat layer, and a topcoat layer in contact with the porous bond coat layer at an interface. The porous bond coat layer includes a matrix, oxygen-scavenging gas-evolution particles dispersed through the matrix, and engineered buffer pores. The oxygen-scavenging gas-evolution particles react with oxygen and generate a gaseous byproduct that diffuses through the interface to escape the EBC system. The engineered buffer pores buffer diffusion of gaseous byproduct to the interface by retaining at least a portion of the gaseous byproduct.
