Abstract

Abstract The demand for high performance in the combustion equipment used in the automobile and aerospace industries is creating renewed interest in the use of ceramic protective coatings on metal surfaces. Sometimes, thick coating layers are required as thermal barriers or for wear resistance and hardness. Although plasma spraying is one of the promising processes available for depositing thick ceramic coatings onto metal surfaces, the presence of porosity in the coating coupled with lack of corrosion resistance of the coated materials, and the generally low strengths of both the coating layer and the coating-matrix interface may limit the use of the process. HIP treatment of ceramic coatings allows one to obtain dense coatings and also to increase the interfacial bond strength. The present paper reviews the recent advances in the post-HIPing of ceramic coatings as well as the use of HIP for sinter-coating by which a ceramic powder compact is sintered and bonded simultaneously to a metal surface.
