    摘要: A method for providing a substantially-smooth protective coating on a metal-based substrate is disclosed. It comprises the steps of: (a) applying a thermal barrier coating over the substrate by plasma-spraying; (b) plasma-heating the applied coating according to a time- and temperature schedule sufficient to re-melt the surface region of the coating, allowing it to flow and smoothen; and then (c) cooling the surface region to a temperature below its melting point. The thermal barrier coating is often zirconia-based, e.g., yttria-stabilized zirconia. After being cooled, the surface is much smoother than when originally applied, thereby allowing the coating to be used in a higher-temperature environment.

    摘要: An article having a spallation resistant TBC comprises a metal substrate, such as a high temperature superalloy, and a TBC, such as a coating of yttria stabilized zirconia. The TBC comprises a plurality of plasma-sprayed layers. The TBC has a coherent, continuous columnar grain microstructure, wherein at least one layer has a plurality of continuous columnar grains which have been extended by directional solidification into an adjacent layer. In a preferred embodiment, the coherent, continuous columnar microstructure comprises substantially all of the volume of TBC. A coherent, continuous columnar grain microstructure is also taught wherein at least some of the plurality of coherent, continuous columnar grains which comprise a TBC extend through essentially the entire thickness of the coating. A columnar crack pattern of cracks extending generally normal to the surface of the metal substrate is also developed within TBCs of the present invention in conjunction with the coherent, continuous columnar grain microstructures described.

    摘要: A method and apparatus form a thermal barrier coating on a metal component. A molten thermal barrier coating powder is sprayed on the component in sweeping strokes. A plurality of overlapping solidified coating ribbons are deposited on the component and include a sequentially deposited surface ribbon forming sublayer ribbons therebelow. The surface ribbon is preheated at a spray site so that the sprayed molten powder remelts the surface ribbon at the spray site for sequentially welding the sequentially deposited surface ribbons to the sublayer ribbons.
