Hundreds of different types of coatings are used to protect a variety of structural engineering
materials from corrosion, wear, and erosion, and to provide lubrication and thermal …

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) have proved to be a key technology in thermal stability and
their use to achieve surface temperature reduction of the underlying super alloys surpass all …

Thermal barrier coating (TBC) system is an essential technology in many fields associated to
high temperatures. The main function of these TBCs is to protect the metallic parts against …

Commercial plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) were investigated in an effort
to elucidate the failure modes during thermal-cycling. Residual stresses in the thermally …

The primary focus of this review concerns the test methods used to evaluate thermal spray
coatings. Techniques to measure coating intrinsic properties such as (i) porosity and (ii) …

In this paper, the residual stress of double-ceramic-layer (DCL) La2Zr2O7/8YSZ thermal
barrier coatings (TBCs) fabricated by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) was calculated by …

Temperature sensing from the photoluminescence of MgAl 2 O 4: Cr 3+ ceramic powder is
systematically investigated. Material was prepared by self-propagating high temperature …

Thermally grown oxide (TGO), besides bringing extra mismatch between layers in thermal
barrier coatings (TBCs), induces volumetric expansion and local large deformation in …

In this review, a review a of the applications of micro-Raman spectroscopy (μRS) to
characterize the residual strain and/or stress in electronic packaging is presented. Micro …

High performance thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) produced from nanocrystalline 4 mol.% Y
2 O 3–stabilized ZrO 2 (4YSZ) powder show significant thermal and mechanical property …
