摘要

Microstructural characteristics and adhesion properties of air plasma spraying, thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) having thermally sprayed bond coats treated by high-current pulsed electron beam (HCPEB) irradiation, and a combination treatment of HCPEB and grit blasting were investigated. Microstructure observations revealed that the original coarse surface of thermally sprayed bond coat was significantly changed to interconnected bulged nodules with a compact appearance after HCPEB irradiation. With further grit blasting treatment, these series of bulged nodules appeared with successive and uniform jagged edges. Surface roughness of the bond coat after compound treatment became higher due to these bulged nodules with jagged edges, which was conducive to ceramic deposition. The results of the tensile test revealed that the adhesion strength of thermally sprayed TBCs with the bond coats conducted by a compound treatment was obviously increased. The combination treatment of HCPEB and grit blasting improved the interfacial bonding strength as well as the interfacial homogeneity.
