Abstract
In this study, the current industry standard topcoat for thermal barrier coatings, 8YSZ, is deposited by suspension plasma spraying and its room-temperature erosion resistance is compared with that of SPS sprayed gadolinium zirconate/YSZ and triple-layered GZdense/GZ/YSZ. A columnar microstructure was observed in both the single- and multi-layered TBCs. Single-layer 8YSZ had a higher erosion resistance than multi-layered GZ/YSZ despite of its higher porosity among the as-sprayed coatings. In the case of the triple-layer coating, the denser top layer helped to slightly improve erosion resistance over that of the GZ/YSZ double-layer TBC.
