Introduction
Thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are layer systems deposited on thermally highly loaded metallic components by utilizing insulating material.
Before
After
Pratt & Whitney first introduced TBC on burner can in JT8D engine in 1963
Burner can
COATING LAYERS
Initially
Adhesion strength
Thermal conductivity
Application :
Some of products incorporating TBC:
Turbine blades
Cutting tool inserts Aero engine parts
ADVANTAGES:
The coating itself is harder and more wear resistant, and the stress that can sometimes occur in the top coat (ceramic coat)
DISADVANTAGES:
TBCs produced with plasma spray lack reproducibility as porosity is introduced when the molten particles splat
down
TBCs deposited by electron beam evaporation are reported to generally fail on cooling by spreading and
Due to the good corrosion resistance and wear resistance these will improve the mechanical behavior .
The TBCs are suitable for low temperature deposition for super alloy turbine engine components due to their low thermal conductivity.
Because of these properties the thermal barrier coatings are widely used in jet engines, turbine blades, aero engine parts , gas turbines.
