Abstract
A seal system includes a ceramic component, a metallic component, a coating system. The ceramic component has a first surface region that defines a first surface roughness. The metallic component is situated adjacent to the first surface region and has a second surface region facing the first surface region. The coating system includes a silicon-containing layer on the surface region of the ceramic component and barrier layer on the silicon-containing layer. The silicon containing layer has a surface in contact with the barrier layer and the barrier layer has a surface in contact with the metallic component. The surface of the barrier layer has a second surface roughness that is less than the first surface roughness. The barrier layer serves to limit interaction between silicon of the silicon-containing layer and elements of the metallic component. The barrier layer includes at least one of mullite, zircon, or hafnon.
