Effect of high-temperature aging on the thermal conductivity of nanocrystalline tetragonal yttria-stabilized zirconia
نویسندگان
چکیده
The thermal conductivity of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) thermal barrier coatings increases with high-temperature aging. This common observation has been attributed to the densification of the coatings as porosity sinters out and pores and cracks spheroidize to minimize their surface energy. We show that the thermal conductivity of fully-dense 3 mol.% Y2O3 stabilized zirconia (3YSZ) also increases with high-temperature aging, indicating that densification and pore shape changes alone are not responsible for all the observed increase in thermal conductivity of coatings. Instead, there are also increases due to a combination of phase separation and grain growth. The increase in thermal conductivity can be described by a Larson–Miller parameter. It is also found that the increase in thermal conductivity with aging is greatest when measured at room temperature and decreases with increasing measurement temperature. Measured at 1000 C, the thermal conductivity of zirconia is almost temperature independent and the changes in thermal conductivity with aging are less than 15%, even after aging for 50 h at 1400 C. 2012 Acta Materialia Inc.

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...

Tetragonal Zirconia Polycrystals stabilized with 3% mol. content of yttria (3Y-TZP) has excellent properties in terms of strength and fracture toughness. These properties are mostly imputable to the transformation toughening mechanism, by which the doped metastable tetragonal phase of zirconia transforms to monoclinic under applied stress ahead of a crack. This phenomenon is accompanied by a vo...
