Yb2Si2O7/Yb2SiO5 composites dispersed with silicon carbide (SiC) possess a self-crack-healing ability that makes them promising top-coat materials for multilayered environmental barrier coatings (EBCs) of SiC/SiC gas turbine blades. Stress-induced surface cracks can be fully healed at high temperatures by the volume expansion of SiO2 glass and the newly formed Yb2Si2O7 in the composite. The reaction between SiO2 and Yb2SiO5 to form Yb2Si2O7 is considered a critical step that determines the high healing efficiency of this composite, therefore, Yb2SiO5 is considered as the secondary healing agent apart from the primary one, SiC. However, once all the healing agents have reacted, the composite can no longer promote its crack-healing ability. To retain this property, in this work, Yb2SiO5 is regenerated by a heat treatment in water-vapor atmosphere at 1073 K. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analyses show that the healing agent can be partially recycled after the treatment. In addition, the composite treated in water vapor demonstrates a greater crack-healing ability compared with the untreated composite. These results open a new path for the development of gas turbine blades and high-temperature components possessing permanent crack-healing ability.
