Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), which protect metallic components from high-temperature
environments, have been widely applied to the fields of high-temperature and corrosion …

A novel thermal barrier coating system with a double columnar structure was developed on
a single-crystal superalloy N5 to investigate its cyclic oxidation behavior. The bond coating …

Zirconia and alumina have been successfully incorporated into turbines used for propulsion
and power generation. They exert a crucial influence on the fuel efficiency. The roles of …

The oxidation behaviour of a thermal barrier coating (TBC) system is a major concern as the
growth of the thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer on the bond-coating creates stresses that …

Rare earth elements have a great positive influence on the oxidation behavior and thereby
on the lifetime of TBC systems. A commonly used EB-PVD NiCoCrAlY bondcoat was doped …

The scale growth mechanisms of a platinized NiCoCrAlY bond coat (BC) beneath a ceramic
thermal barrier coating (TBC) were studied during cyclic oxidation in air at 1000° C. The …

The microstructure of Al2O3 formed by oxidation of a model NiCrAlY alloy during electron‐
beam physical vapor deposition of ZrO2–7.6 mol% YO1. 5 is examined and compared with …

Using experimentally measured temperature-process-dependent model parameters, the
failure analysis and life evaluation were conducted for electron beam-physical vapor …

A set of aerofoil shaped air plasma sprayed thermal barrier coated (APS-TBC) specimens
were adopted in this paper to investigate the stress distributions in the ceramic top coat (TC) …

The microstructure of a CoNiCrAlY coating vacuum plasma sprayed onto an aluminized
MARM002 Ni-base superalloy was investigated in the as-deposited condition, after heat …
