Glass‐Ceramic Coatings for Titanium Aluminides

Abstract
Four glass‐ceramic coatings have been successfully developed to function as both hydrogen barriers and oxidation protection on super α‐2 titanium aluminide. The coefficients of thermal expansion (88 × 10–7/°C to 117 × 10–7/°C) of these coatings provide a good match with that of the alloy, and the coatings show excellent adherence in thermal cycling to 982°C. In addition, the four coatings have measured emittances from 0.67 to 0.80 at this temperature. Finally, the coatings display the desired low hydrogen and oxygen permeation characteristics.
