Influence of microstructure on the mechanical properties of thermally sprayed NiCoCrAlY coatings determined by small punch testing

The development of new thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) capable of increasing the efficiency of gas powered turbines requires an understanding of the time-dependent and time-independent properties of MCrAlY bond coats. High velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spraying was used to manufacture free-standi...
