A corrosion resistant coating for engine components such as turbine disks, turbine seal elements and turbine shafts. This coating may also find application to other turbine components that are subjected to high temperatures and corrosive environments, such as turbine components located within or on the boundary of the gas fluid flow path, including for example turbine blades, turbine vanes, liners and exhaust flaps. The corrosion resistant coating of the present invention in service on a gas turbine component includes a glassy ceramic matrix wherein the glassy matrix is silica-based and particles selected from the group consisting of refractory oxide particles, MCrAlX particles and combinations of these particles, substantially uniformly distributed within the matrix. The refractory oxide and/or the MCrAlX provides the coating with corrosion resistance. Importantly the coating of the present invention has a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) greater than alumina. The CTE of the coating is sufficiently close to the substrate material, that is, the component to which it is applied, such that the coating does not spall after frequent engine cycling at elevated temperature
