AbstractLanthanides (Ln2O3) and elements like Zr and Y find application in the highest temperature‐resistant thermal and/or environmental barrier coatings. Such coatings are routinely exposed to silicate particles (e.g., sand, dust, volcanic ash), leading to chemical reactions that degrade the coating. The dissolution of 13.5 wt.% Ln2O3 into a calcium–magnesium–aluminum‐silicate (CMAS) melt leads to a viscosity reduction for the light lanthanides, while viscosity increases toward heavier lanthanides. For Gd, Y, and Zr, various amounts up to 13.5 wt.% (Gd2O3, Y2O3, ZrO2) were added to the CMAS melt, showing a tendency of increased viscosity for low concentrations (2.5‐3 wt.%) and a decreasing viscosity for higher values of the added component.
