The hot corrosion behaviors of a single crystal (SC) Ni-base superalloy coated with Na 2 SO
4 and 75 wt.% Na 2 SO 4-25 wt.% NaCl mixture were studied in air at 900° C. The results …

Changes in the crystallographic texture of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) produced by
electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) as a function of substrate-rotation speed …

The effects of thermal annealing at 1000° C in air on the microstructure and the mechanical
properties (Young's modulus and hardness) of thermal barrier coatings consisting of a …

Observing texture and microstructure growth in coating layers during oblique deposition
provides the most fundamental information to optimize the process parameters of the …

Thermal diffusivity (α) of YSZ coatings was determined by the phase lag method of the photo-
acoustic signal for rear and frontal illuminations using a two-beam photo-acoustic cell. XRD …

The most usual ceramic material for coating turbine blades is yttria doped zirconia. Addition
of niobia, as a co-dopant in the Y2O3-ZrO2 system, can reduce the thermal conductivity and …

The primary objective of the study was to adapt the GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding)
technique for the purposes of the surface remelting processing of non-conductive plasma …

Palhetas de turbinas de aeronaves e de termoelétricas operam em atmosferas agressivas e
em elevadas temperaturas e pressões. Uma técnica para aumentar sua vida útil ou mesmo …

Excellent thermal shock resistance is required for thermal protection coatings experiencing
high/low temperature cycles. In this paper, the pure ceria oxide coatings were deposited by …

Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) film was deposited on to a metal substrate by electron beam–
physical vapor deposition (EB–PVD) at 850° C. The film was characterized by X-ray …
