Materials, Volume 12, Issue 4, February 2019, Article number 5731996-1944https://doi.org/10.3390/ma12040573https://dspace.lib.cranfield.ac.uk/handle/1826/15187Two commercial hybrid coatings, cured at temperatures lower than 300 °C, were successfully used to protect magnesium silicide stannide and zinc-doped tetrahedrite thermoelectrics. The oxidation rate of magnesium silicide at 500 °C in air was substantially reduced after 120 h with the application of the solvent-based coating and a slight increase in power factor was observed. The water-based coating was effective in preventing an increase in electrical resistivity for a coated tethtraedrite, preserving its power factor after 48 h at 350 °C.enAttribution 4.0 InternationalHybrid-coatingThermoelectricsOxidation resistanceOxidation protective hybrid coating for thermoelectric materialsArticle
