Abstract
Within this work single- (SCL) and double-ceramic-layer (DCL) top coats consisting of 7 wt.% yttria stabilized zirconia (7YSZ), La2Zr2O7 or Gd2Zr2O7 are deposited by means of Electron Beam-Physical Vapor Deposition (EB-PVD). Aim of this work is on the one hand the investigation of temperature-dependent phase behavior and change of thermal conductivity of SCL and DCL top coats. On the other hand the influence of different top coat materials and architectures on the growth of thermally grown oxide (TGO) is of key interest. In a first step morphology and coating thickness were determined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The SCL and DCL systems show a columnar microstructure with a coating thickness of about 150 μm. In a second step thermal conductivity of SCL and DCL systems was measured between 400 °C and 1300 °C by means of laser flash technique. The third step contained X-ray diffraction measurements of SCL and DCL systems after atmospherical isothermal oxidation at 1300 °C. Finally, the TGO at the interface was analyzed. The TGO composition was determined by means of energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The TGO phase was identified by using X-ray diffraction. Thus, by a correlation between morphology, architecture, coating material and TGO behavior information about oxygen diffusion processes have been obtained.
