he microstructure and high-temperature oxidation-
resistant performance of four silicide coatings prepared
respectively at 1250°C for 8 h by pack siliconizing process,
Si-Y co-deposition process and Si-Al-Y co-deposition process
(with different Al contents in the packs) on an Nb-Si based
alloy were revealed. The results showed that the purely
siliconized coating was composed of a (Ti,Nb)5Si
3
ouer layer,
a (Nb,X)Si
2
(X represents Ti, Cr and Hf elements) middle layer
and a (Ti,Nb)5Si
4
inner layer. A thicker and more compact
double-layer structure including a (Nb,X)Si
2
outer layer and a
(Ti,Nb)5Si
4
inner layer was observed in the Si-Y co-deposition
coating. In addition, a higher Y content (about 0.34 at. %)
in the outer layer of the Si-Y co-deposition coating was
obtained, while the Y content was only about 0.06 at. % in the
purely siliconized coating. The Si-Al-Y co-deposition coating
possessed a (Nb,X)Si
2
outer layer, a (Ti,Nb)5Si
4
middle layer
and an Al, Cr-rich inner layer. A suitable addition of Al powders
(5 wt. %) in the packs was beneficial to thicken the (Nb,X)Si
2
outer layer, while a sharp reduction in the coating thickness
was found when excess Al powders (10 wt. %) was added
in the packs. The thickness and microstructure of the scales
formed on above four coatings upon oxidation at 1250°C
for either 5 h or 100 h were comparatively investigated.
The oxidation resistance of these silicide-type coatings was
notably enhanced by the addition of Y and Al. The Si-Al-Y
co-deposition coating prepared with 5 wt. % Al powders in
the pack, possessed the best oxidation resistance due to its
optimum dense and continuous scale and compact coating
remained.
