Abstract A diffusion barrier based on a NiW electrolytic coating has been developed to limit interdiffusion between a Ni-base superalloy (MCNG) and a β-NiAl bondcoating. Isothermal oxidation tests of 50h at 1100°C confirmed that W-rich layer formed with NiW coating modifies the oxidation behaviour of the bondcoat and limits interdiffusion. The diffusion barrier reduced β-NiAl  γ’-Ni3Al transformation in the bondcoating and prevented SRZ formation.
