Abstract
The present study was carried out to investigate the isothermal oxidation behavior, thermal cyclic performance and oxidation kinetics of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) systems consisting of CoNiCrAlY metallic bondcoats produced by Atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) and high velocity oxy fuel spraying (HVOF) on Inconel 718 substrate. Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) ceramic top coats was produced by APS process as for the insulation layer. The oxidation behavior of the coatings were investigated under isothermal oxidation conditions at 1000 °C, 1100 °C and 1200 °C for 8, 24, 50 and 100 h. The results of the experimental studies on the oxidation kinetics and microstructural evolution of APS and HVOF sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are compared and discussed in the paper. The microstructural changes at the metallic/ceramic interface and growth behavior of the thermally grown oxide (TGO) layers during the isothermal oxidation and thermal cyclic tests were analyzed in detail.
