Abstract
An alumina rich Al2O3–ZrO2–TiO2 compound was used for the preparation of self-supporting parts via the rod flame spraying technology. The as-sprayed material was compared to self-supporting parts, fabricated from commercially available alumina rods. For both materials, the flexural strength, the fracture resistance, and the behaviour under subcritical loading was evaluated and compared, either before as well as after cold thermal shock. While the flexural strength and the subcritical damaging of both materials were basically affected through thermal shock in a similar manner, the Al2O3–ZrO2–TiO2 compound showed an outstanding behaviour in terms of its fracture resistance, which was only barely reduced after thermal shock quenching.
