  • Patent number: 8216689
    Abstract: Components (1) have a thermal barrier coating (2-6) on the surface thereof, wherein the thermal barrier coating includes at least one layer (3) having chemically stabilized zirconia, and wherein at least indirectly adjacent to the layer (3) with chemically stabilized zirconia and on its surface facing side, there is provided a protective layer (4) and/or a infiltration zone (5) which does not react with environmental contaminant compositions that contain oxides of calcium and which does not react with the material of the layer (3) having chemically stabilized zirconia. Methods for making such components as well as to uses of specific systems for coating thermal barrier coatings, can prevent CMAS.
