Abstract
A composition is provided that includes a silicon-containing material (e.g., a silicon metal and/or a silicide) and about 0.001% to about 85% of a Ga-containing compound, an In-containing compound, or a mixture thereof. The silicon-based layer can be a bond coating directly on the surface of the substrate. Alternatively or additionally, the silicon-based layer can be an outer layer defining a surface of the substrate, with an environmental barrier coating on the surface of the substrate. A coated component is also provided, as well as a method for coating a ceramic component. Gas turbine engines are also provided that include such a ceramic component.
