An article comprising a silicon-containing substrate, a silicide-containing bond coat layer overlying the substrate, and typically an environmental barrier coating overlaying the bond coat layer. An article is also provided wherein the environmental barrier coating comprises: (1) an optional inner silica scale layer overlaying the bond coat layer; (2) intermediate layer overlaying the inner silica scale layer, or the bond coat layer in the absence of the inner silica scale layer, and comprising mullite, or a combination of mullite with a barium strontium aluminosilicate, a yttrium silicate, or a calcium aluminosilicate; and (3) an outer steam-resistant barrier layer overlaying the intermediate layer and consisting essentially of an alkaline earth silicate/aluminosilicate. Processes are also provided for forming the silicide-containing bond coat layer over the substrate, followed by forming the environmental barrier coating over the bond coat layer.
