Abstract Plasma sprayed ZrO2-CeO2 and ZrO2-CeO2-Y2O3 coatings were investigated to develop advanced thermal barrier coating (TBC) with improved thermal and mechanical properties. The addition of a large amount of CeO2 to ZrO2 decreased the thermal conductivity, but it also reduced the mechanical property like hardness. Addition of Y2O3 to ZrO2-CeO2 was effective to improve the hardness. Double layered coating composed of a low thermal conductive top layer, such as ZrO2-CeO2-Y2O3 and a high strength base layer like yttria stabilized zirconia was fabricated. It exhibited an excellent thermal shock resistance and high thermal barrier capability.

Four point bending tests have been carried out on a thermal barrier coating (TBC) system, at room temperature. The TBC system consisted of a plasma sprayed Y-TZP top coat with 8 % in weight of Yttria, a bond coat of NiCrAlY and a Ni-based superalloy Inconel 625 as substrate. The TBC coating was deposited on both sides of the prismatic specimens. Efforts have been done in detecting the damage of the coating by means of Maltzbender et al [1] model.

This paper deals with the microstructure and thermal shock behavior of laser remelting of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) deposited by plasma spraying. The microstructures of the coatings were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was found that the as-sprayed ceramic coating had laminated structure with high porosity. However, the coating exhibited a dense lamellar-like layer with segment cracks on the remained plasma-sprayed porous layer. Thermal shock experiments for the two kinds of TBCs were performed by water quenching method. Testing result showed that the laser-remelted TBC had better thermal shock resistance than the as-sprayed one. The damage mode of the as-sprayed TBC was great-size whole spalling. In contract, the failure mechanism of the laser-remelted one was mainly local pelling. Segmented cracks of the top ceramic coatings caused by laser remelting improved the stress accommodation and were mainly attributed to the enhancement for thermal shock life of TBC.
