Microstructural evolution of EB-PVD TBC's on cylinderical surfaces

摘要

The microstructures of EB-PVD TBC's have been characterized as a function of angular position and cylinder height on stationary cylindrical surfaces in the coating chamber. The microstructures were evaluated using x-ray diffraction for qualitative crystallographic texture as well as by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy for crystal column growth morphology. The results revealed several very strong crystallographic textures as well as a variety of crystal growth morphology.
