Abstract:

This paper reports a comparative study on characterization and thermal shock behavior of air plasma sprayed Al2O3-13wt.%TiO2 coatings using two kinds of raw materials, i.e. nanostructural and micro-structural (traditional) feedstock powders. The characterization, before and after thermal shock test, was carried out using micro-Vickers hardness tester, XRD and SEM. The thermal shock test was carried out using a water quenching method by employing cyclic heat treatment between ambient temperature and 650°C in air. The results showed that in spite of having denser structure, the nanostructural coating showed hardness a little lower than the traditional one at both conditions of before and after thermal shock tests. However, the nanostructural coating showed very good thermal shock behaviour.
