In the present work, surface characterization of YSZ/Al2O3 /CeO2 plasma sprayed coatings was performed to understand characteristics. The content Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) 60 wt.% , where alumina varied from 30 38 and CeO2 2 10 wt.%, respectively. Ceramic with a different percentage variation composite materials were used increase layer strength on substrate SS-304. SEM micrographs analy...

Thermal Barrier Coatings are subjected to spallation and destabilization due to hot corrosion.Recently, Ceria Stabilized Zirconia (CSZ)-based TBCs have been intensively investigated for the YSZreplacement because CSZ has a much lower thermal conductivity and a higher expected thermalexpansion coefficient than those of YSZ. In this research, Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) andceria stabilized z...

Gadolinia-doped ceria (GDC) is widely used as an interlayer for preventing the formation of SrZrO3 between yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte and lanthanum strontium cobalt iron oxides (LSCF) cathode solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). However, diffusion Gd ions to YSZ results in decrease ionic conductivity due Gd2(Zr, Ce)2O7. In present work, we focus on lanthanum-doped (LDC) LSCF cathod...

The calculations performed in this study indicate that efficient deposition of tetragonal yttria-stabilized zirconia ~YSZ! by chemical vapor deposition ~CVD! is feasible using metal chloride precursors ~Zr-Y-C-O-H-Cl system!. As reported in the literature, this work demonstrates that high oxygen content is necessary to efficiently utilize metal chloride precursors for depositing tetragonal YSZ ...

Crystalline yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) gate dielectrics have been successfully fabricated on silicon wafers. By carefully controlling the annealing condition, the crystalline YSZ gate dielectrics show promising performances following the rapid thermal annealing process. The equivalent electrical oxide thickness only increases about 2.0 Å after annealing in O2 gas, while the leakage curren...

The paper discusses optimising work on a method of processing ceramic / metal composite coatings for various applications and is based on preliminary work on processing anodes for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The composite coating is manufactured by the electroless co-deposition of nickel and yttria stabilised zirconia (YSZ) simultaneously on to a ceramic substrate. The effect on coating cha...

In this study, thermal barrier coatings (TBC) consisting of 3.5 mol% Yb2O3-stabilized ZrO2 co-doped with 1 Gd2O3 and Yb2O3 (referred to as GdYb-YSZ) were fabricated by means air plasma spraying. The as-fabricated exhibited a metastable tetragonal (t′) structure. hot-corrosion behavior the GdYb–YSZ TBCs was investigated at 700, 800, 900, 1000 °C for 10 h in presence V2O5 molten salt. During corr...
