Abstract
A superalloy component having a substrate article of a superalloy, and a strengthenable coating covering at least a portion of the substrate article. The coating exhibits thermal barrier characteristics and when cured formed a ceramic material. The component may further include a fiber layer between the substrate article and the coating, and the coating may be reinforced with fiber and the ceramic may be imbedded with inorganic particles. The coating is a foam obtained by reacting an admixture of (a) a silane polymer, (b) a silicone-vinyl resin and (c) a catalyst. The article is preferably a turbine blade. The component is useful as a gas turbine element.
