Structural and Surface Analysis of Plasma Processed Zirconia Coatings
Materials Science
This paper reviews plasma deposition method of zirconia based ceramic coatings with regard to tribological applications. Subjects discussed include wear-resistant coatings from yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) processed by plasma-spray technique on the stainless steel substrates employing non-equilibrium plasma spray technology at atmospheric pressure. The relation between the microstructure, surface texture and microhardness of the as-sprayed coatings was investigated.
