Abstract

The paper presents an advanced technology of Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) deposition called Plasma Spray – Physical Vapor Deposition (PS-PVD). The PS-PVD is a low pressure plasma spray technology to deposit coatings out of vapor phase, which enables obtaining of columnar ceramic coatings. In this paper, the influence of various gas mixtures on properties of deposited coatings has been investigated. The measurement of coating thickness was conducted by a light microscopy method, followed by a statistical analysis. All processes had been conducted at a very low feed rate, which additionally affected ceramic microstructure.
