Pulse Electric Fields for EPD of Thermal Barrier Coatings

Article Preview

Abstract:

Conventional electrophoretic deposition is being combined with pulse electric fields to deposit yttria stabilized zirconia from ethanol based suspensions onto bondcoated turbine alloys for thermal barrier coatings. The addition of the pulse electric fields to the electrophoretic process has demonstrated the capability to decrease the coating roughness, minimize hydrolysis, and decrease coating edge effects commonly encountered in electrokinetic and electrochemical deposition processes. Subsequent to the electrophoretic deposition process the green body coatings were subjected to a combined binder burnout and sintering process for further coating densification. The coatings have been qualified in terms of surface roughness as well as microstructure and experiments have been performed to show that the pulse EPD process can deposit TBC materials onto turbine components.
