PROTECTIVE COATING SYSTEMS ON COMPONENTS

摘要

Components and methods of forming a protective coating system on the components are provided. The component includes a ceramic substrate and a braze layer disposed over the ceramic substrate. The braze layer includes a silicon matrix having a first constituent and a second constituent that is different than the first constituent. The first constituent forms a first intermetallic with a portion of the silicon matrix and the second constituent forms a second intermetallic with another portion of the silicon matrix, wherein the braze layer is formulated to provide a barrier to oxygen diffusion therethrough.
