Yttrium disilicate as environmental barrier coating for silicon nitride-based glow plug

Silicon-based ceramics undergo severe degradation at temperatures above ~1000 ℃ in the presence of water vapor, which is inevitable in combustion environments. Therefore, Environmental Barrier Coatings (EBCs) are necessary for the protection of Si₃N₄-based ceramic components in the harsh combustion...
