The global thermal barrier coatings market is valued at US$12.152 billion in 2020, with a CAGR of 4.09% predicted to raise US$16.092 billion by 2027.

Thermal barrier coatings are intended to protect metal structural components from extremely elevated temperatures, reducing stress and abrasion and extending the part’s life. Thermal barriers incorporate several key components to provide such a high level of protection. Every coating comprises four distinct layers, with each layer contributing to the coating’s protective thermal properties and allowing it to form a unique thermal barrier. These 100 m to 2 mm thick thermally shielding paints protect elements from large and sustained heat loads and can withstand a significant temperature gradient between the load-bearing alloying elements and the coating surface. As a result, these coatings can allow for higher operation conditions while restricting structural element thermal exposure, broadening part life by reducing oxidation and thermal fatigue. In some turbine implementations, TBCs, in conjunction with active film cooling, allow working fluid temperatures greater than the melting point of the metal airfoil. There is a major incentive to develop new and enhanced TBCs due to the increasing demand for more powerful engines operating at higher temperatures with better sturdiness and slimmer coatings to reduce parasitic mass for rotational motion components.

Components of Thermal Barrier Coating

A typical thermal coating consists of a metal layer sandwiched between two ceramic layers.

On the other hand, misaligned thermal expansion coefficients can jeopardise the bond where it abides by the substrate. A “bond coat” is sometimes used to aid adhesion between the metal substrate and the ceramic layer. These thermal barrier coatings are made up of four layers. The metal surface is the first component of the thermal coating. Thermal coatings tend to work well with mono or polycrystalline nickel or cobalt alloy blended with other components based on the intended end-product properties. The bond coat is the first layer of the coating; it is what allows the sealant to bond to the substrate and thus adhere to it. The bond coat is traditionally a metallic layer composed of a nano-structured ceramic-metallic matrix that abides the layer to the metal substrate and is important for activating the 2nd coating layer of thermally grown ceramic oxide when the coating is exposed to elevated temperatures. The composition of thermally grown oxides is catalysed when nanoparticles of aluminium oxides and nitrides are dispersed all across the bond coat. This ceramic layer is in charge of establishing a uniform, thermally protective shield by intervening as an oxygen diffuser, preventing the substrate from burning.
