Abstract

Abstract In this study, Al2O3-based coatings with varying TiO2 contents (0, 3, 13, and 40%) were fabricated using atmospheric plasma spraying technique. To compare the superiority of the samples, their thermal properties (thermal conductivity and thermal shock resistance) were characterized. As observed, Al2O3- 40%TiO2 (A-40T) coating exhibited relatively superior thermal insulation and thermal shock resistance at 600°C. According to the microstructure and phase analysis, this finding can be attributed to the special phase, Al2TiO5, and the pre-existing microcracks inside the coating. Thus, A-40T manifested excellent characteristics for thermal insulation application compared with pure Al2O3 and low-TiO2 content coatings.
