Abstract
La2Ce2O7 (LCO)/yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) thermal barrier coating (TBC) with segmentation crack structure was produced by atmospheric plasma spraying. Thermo-physical properties, such as thermal diffusivities and thermal conductivities, and thermal cycling performance of the segmented LCO/YSZ TBC were investigated. The thermal conductivity of the segmented coating was measured to be around 1.02 W/mK at 1200 °C, relatively lower than that of the non-segmented coating, respectively. The segmented LCO/YSZ TBC exhibited a thermal cycling lifetime of around 2100 cycles, improving the durability by nearly 50% as compared to the non-segmented TBC. The failure of the segmented coating occurred by chipping spallation and delamination cracking within the coating.
