Abstract
A ceramic coating for a metal article includes a metallic bond coat deposited on the metal article, at least one MCrAlY/ceramic layer deposited on the bond coat, and a ceramic composite top layer deposited on the MCrAlY/ceramic layer. The M in MCrAlY stands for Fe, Ni, Co, or a mixture of Ni and Co. The ceramic in the MCrAlY/ceramic layer comprises mullite, alumina, zircon, sillimanite, sodium zirconium phosphate, fused silica, cordierite, aluminum titanate, or zirconia. The ceramic composite top layer comprises a ceramic matrix and at least one secondary phase. A method of making the coating includes sequentially depositing a metallic bond coat on the metal article, at least one MCrAlY/ceramic layer on the bond coat, and a ceramic composite top layer on the MCrAlY/ceramic layer.
