Effect of La2O3 addition on thermal conductivity and high temperature stability of YSZ coating produced by EB-PVD was investigated. La2O3 was selected as an additive because it had a significant effect on suppressing densification of YSZ. The developed coating showed extremely low thermal conductivity as well as high resistance to sintering. Microstructural observation revealed that the coating had fine feather-like subcolumns and nanopores, which contributed to limit thermal transport. These nanostructures were thought to be formed by suppressing densification during deposition.

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are used in gas turbine engines to achieve a better efficiency by allowing increased turbine inlet temperature and decreasing the amount of cooling air used. Plasma spraying is one of the most reliable methods to produce TBCs, which are generally comprised of a top coating of ceramic and a bond-coat of metal. Usually, the top coating is Yttria-Stabilized-Zirconia (YSZ), providing the thermal barrier effect. The bond-coat is typically a layer of M-Cr-Al-Y (where “M” stands for “metal”), employed to improve the attachment between the ceramic top-coat and the substrate. Due to the extreme temperature gradient presented in the plasma jet and the wide particle size distribution, during the coating process, injected ceramic powders may experience a significantly different heating process. Different heating history, coupled with the substrate preheating temperature, may affect the thermal properties of the YSZ layers. In this paper, four sets of mol 8% YSZ disks are fabricated under controlled temperatures of 1100°C, 1200°C, 1400°C and 1600°C. Subsequently the thermal properties and the microstructures of these YSZ disks are studied. The results indicate a strong microstructure change at a temperature slightly below 1400°C. For a high sintering temperature, a dense YSZ layer can be formed, which is good for gas tight operation; At low sintering temperature, say 1200°C, a porous YSZ layer is formed, which has the advantage of low thermal conductivity. For gas turbine TBC applications, a robust low thermal conductivity YSZ layer is desirable, while for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, a gas-tight YSZ film must be formed. This study offers a general guideline on how to prepare YSZ layers, mainly by controlling the heating process, to form microstructures with desired properties.

Plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems are widely used in gas turbine blades to increase turbine entry temperature (TET) and better efficiency. Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) has been the conventional thermal barrier coating material because of its low thermal conductivity, relative high thermal expansion coefficient and good corrosion resistance. However the YSZ coatings can hardly fulfill the harsh requirements in future for higher reliability and the lower thermal conductivity at higher temperatures. Among the interesting TBC candidates, materials with pyrochlore structure show promising thermo-physical properties for use at temperatures exceeding 1200 °C. Sm2Zr2O7 bulk material does not only have high temperature stability, sintering resistance but also lower thermal conductivity and higher thermal expansion coefficient. The sintering characteristics of ceramic thermal barrier coatings under high temperature conditions are complex phenomena. In this paper, samarium zirconate (Sm2Zr2O7, SZ) powder and coatings were prepared by solid state reaction and atmosphere plasma spraying process, respectively. The microstructure development of coatings derived from sintering after heat-treated at 1200–1500 °C for 50 h have been investigated. The microstructure was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the grain growth was analyzed in this paper as well.
