Abstract

Ceramic multilayer structures based on tape cast alumina and zirconia substrates have been manufactured for use as carbon-free refractory materials. The laminates were reinforced via residual stresses due to shrinkage mismatch or differences in thermal expansion in order to achieve an improved thermal cycling capability. Thermal shock tests have been carried out using a plasma test stand. The impact of layer sequence and residual stresses has been demonstrated via measurement of Young's modulus and microstructure images of the layered structures. Hasselman parameters as well as the crack propagation behaviour at interfaces have been analysed via wedge splitting test.
