Thermal spray coatings from liquid feedstock such as suspensions and solution precursors
have received increasing interest due to the unique coating properties obtainable by these …

Nano-structured coatings should exhibit better properties than micro-structured coatings
because of a high volume fraction of internal interfaces. Since the mid-nineties a large body …

Rare‐earth monosilicates (RE2SiO5, RE: rare‐earth elements), such as Yb2SiO5, have
been developed for potential application as environmental barrier coating (EBC) materials …

The processing of nanomaterials and nanocomposites has advanced since the 1990s. The
growth and opportunities afforded by this technological domain is evident through the trends …

The main goal of this paper was to evaluate the effects of laser glazing on the microstructure
and thermal shock resistance of nanostructured thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). To this end …

The focus of this study is the amorphous phase formation in the alumina–yttria stabilized
zirconia composite coatings during thermal spray deposition. The investigated processes …

Three kinds of Al 2 O 3-ZrO 2 composite coatings with different composition were prepared
by air plasma spraying on titanium alloy substrates. The compositions of the coatings were …

To investigate the effects of air annealing on the microstructure, components, and
mechanical properties of ceramic composite coatings, Al 2 O 3–Cr 2 O 3–ZrO 2 composite …

The main motivation for coating industrial parts with a different material lies on the following
needs:(1) to improve functional performance,(2) to improve the component life by reducing …

Amorphous phases are commonly found in nanostructured plasma‐sprayed coatings.
Nonetheless, the role of these phases in the resulting coatings' properties has remained …
