Introduction
Thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are layer systems deposited on thermally highly loaded metallic components by utilizing insulating material.

In industry , thermal barrier coatings are produced in a number of ways:

* Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition: EBPVD


* Air Plasma Spray: APS * Electrostatic Spray Assisted Vapor Deposition: ESAVD * Direct Vapor Deposition

Plasma spray method

Coating material properties

Thermal conductivity

Application :
Some of products incorporating TBC:

Turbine blades
Cutting tool inserts Aero engine parts

Gas turbine parts such as combustion liners, nozzles or blades


IC engine parts Rocket nozzles and valve bodies

Some Representative Engine Applications for TBC

ADVANTAGES:

Low temperature deposition for super alloy turbine engine components.

Low thermal conductivity.


Increase considerably the creep life of the blade while maintaining level of blade cooling.

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

separation occurs at the interface with the bond coat.

The thermal barrier coating performs the function of insulating components.

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.
