Multilayer EBCs of alcohol and sol-based slurries containing (a) 45% SiO₂-34% Y₂O₃-%Al₂O₃, (b) mullite/Gd₂SiO₅ (88/12wt.%) with and without B₂O₃ addition, (c) mullite/rare-earth silicates (94/6wt.%, (Gd₂SiO₅, Lu₂SiO₅, Er₂SiO₅, and HfSiO₄)), and (d) only mullite, were applied on hot pressed Y₂O₃/Al₂O₃ doped Si₃N₄ substrates. Of the four major EBC systems studied, only mullite/Gd₂SiO₅ (88/12wt.%) EBCs sintered in air at …
