Abstract
- 4 mol.% Y 2 O 3 stabilized ZrO 2 (YSZ) doped with various quantities of Gd 2 O 3 (G-YSZ) ceramic coatings were synthesized by electrophoretic deposition method, and followed by vacuum sintering and isothermally annealing at 1000 °C for different durations. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to investigate their phase composition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was employed to examine their microstructure, while energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) was used to assess composition of the composite coatings. The results indicated that YSZ coating was composed of tetragonal and monoclinic phase after vacuum sintering at 1000 °C for 2 h under vacuum ( −3 Pa). G-YSZ composite coatings were composed of tetragonal, monoclinic phase and a small amount of Gd 2 Zr 2 O 7 phase after vacuum sintering at 1000 °C for 2 h, whereas the content of monoclinic phase in G-YSZ composite coatings increased with increasing Gd 2 O 3 concentration. It was found that G-YSZ composite coatings were composed of tetragonal ZrO 2 phase, monoclinic ZrO 2 phase and cubic phase, whereas Gd 2 Zr 2 O 7 phase disappeared, after G-YSZ composite coatings were isothermally annealed at 1000 °C in air for 100 h. A detailed description of the results and their discussion was presented in the paper.
