Accelerated Design of Cost-Effective Thermal/Environmental Barrier Coatings based on High-Entropy Rare Earth Disilicates: A First-Principles Study

This project aims to design cost-effective thermal/environmental barrier coatings (TEBC) based on high entropy rare earth disilicates to protect SiC-based ceramic matrix composites from chemical and thermal attack for better performance of components in the hot section of gas turbine engines. To accelerate the alloy design, we utilize first-principles density functional theory (DFT) together with combinatorial chemistry methodology to predict key properties including phase stability, apparent bulk coefficient of thermal expansion (ABCTE), intrinsic lattice thermal conductivity, and temperature-dependent elastic constants. Specifically, this project focuses on β-RE2Si2O7 (RE=Yb, Y, Er, Lu, La, Ce,) with β-Yb2Si2O7 and β-Y2Si2O7 as the benchmark. Our DFT calculations predict that Er1/4Lu1/4Y3/4Yb3/4Si2O7 and Er1/2Lu1/2Y1/2Yb1/2Si2O7 have ultralow lattice thermal conductivity < 0.23 W/m/K at 1500 K and a good match of average ABCTE (5.1 - 5.2×10-6 K-1) with SiC. Owing to the low cost and abundant supply of Ce and La, the A- and G-La2Si2O7/Ce2Si2O7 disilicates are also studied. Our study shows that G-phase Ce2Si2O7 has an ultralow thermal conductivity (0.26 W/m/K at 1500 K) and the apparent bulk ABCTE (≈6.9×10-6 K-1) slightly higher than SiC, demonstrating great potential as low-cost high-performance T/EBC. However, La2Si2O7 and Ce2Si2O7 undergo an A-phase to G-phase polymorphic transition at around 1470 K.

Influence of cation species on thermal expansion of Y 2 Si 2 O 7 –Gd 2 Si 2 O 7 solid solutions

Mixtures of Y 2 Si 2 O 7 and Gd 2 Si 2 O 7 were synthesized by solid-state reaction at 1600°C and characterized via in situ x-ray diffraction (XRD) to determine their coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE). All solid solutions within the system exhibited the orthorhombic δ-RE 2 Si 2 O 7 (Pna2 1 ) structure. Thermal expansion measurements of Y 2 Si 2 O 7 and Gd 2 Si 2 O 7 correlated well with reported values in literature, and all synthesized solid solutions exhibited CTEs between Y 2 Si 2 O 7 and Gd 2 Si 2 O 7 . Generally, there was a slight decrease in CTE exhibited by the materials with increasing Gd 2 Si 2 O 7 content, with Gd 2 Si 2 O 7 having the lowest CTEs and Y 2 Si 2 O 7 the highest CTEs. Here, the decrease in CTE was attributed to stronger bonds of Gd-O over Y-O, as determined by calculated crystal orbital Hamilton populations using density functional theory. However, such differences were very small and crystal structure was the dominating factor in CTE trends.
