Title A name given to the resource Duplex functionally graded and multilayered thermal barrier coatings based on 8% yttria stabilized zirconia and pyrochlores Subject The topic of the resource Mechanical Engineering Description An account of the resource Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) protect gas turbine engine metal components while they serve in a high temperature environment (upto 1200℃). 8% Yttria�Stabilized Zirconia (8YSZ) is the current state of the art material for TBCs. Typically, 250 to 500 μm (upto 2 mm) thick TBCs can lower the metal temperature by upto 150°C than the service temperature and thereby enhance life to the components. 8YSZ TBCs however, suffer from (a) increased sinterability, (b) phase de-stabilization and (c) poor adhesion with time in service at high temperature. In order to facilitate longer engine running time, research is being directed towards finding (i) newer materials that do not possess these deficiencies or (ii) configurations that can overcome them. In order to further improve the performance efficiency of the engines, TBC materials with extended thermal fatigue life at higher than current service temperatures (>1100℃) are also being actively investigated. In the same area of research, this thesis presents the findings of work on air plasma sprayed (i) duplex, (ii) functionally graded and (iii) multilayered configurations of TBCs synthesized from commercial 8YSZ and lab synthesized pyrochlore (lanthanum zirconate, lanthanum cerate and lanthanum cerium zirconate) compositions with NiCrAlY bond coat.
