Abstract:Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) have been extensively used in aircraft engines for improved durability and performance for more than fifteen years. In this paper, thermal barrier coating system with plasma sprayed zirconia bonded by a MCrAlY layer to SUS304 stainless steel substrate was performed under tensile tests at 1000°C. The crack nucleation, propagation behavior of the ceramic coatings in as received and oxidized conditions were observed by high-performance camera and discussed in detail. The relationship of the transverse crack numbers in the ceramic coating and tensile strain was recorded and used to describe crack propagation mechanism of thermal barrier coatings. It was found that the fracture/spallation locations of air plasma sprayed (APS) thermal barrier coating system mainly located within the ceramic coating close to the bond coat interface by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-Ray (EDX). The energy release rate and interface fracture toughness of APS TBCs system were evaluated by the aid of Suo–Hutchinson model. The calculations revealed that the energy release rate and fracture toughness ranged, respectively, from 22.15 J m−2 to 37.8 J m−2 and from 0.9 MPa m1/2 to 1.5 MPa m1/2. The results agree well with other experimental results.
