Description

Ex and in situ (≤1300 deg. C) small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments on annealed layers of air-plasma sprayed La2Zr2O7 and SrZrO3 for thermal barrier coatings are presented. The deposits exposed at 1200 deg. C up to 100 h showed a stable microstructure of large pores. Medium-size (∼10-50 nm) intragranular pores sinter during the exposure. The in situ SANS revealed that this process starts at 1000 deg. C. In contrast to La2Zr2O7, the creation of nanopores starting at 900 deg. C was detected in the SrZrO3 layer. These nanopores began to disappear at 1100 deg. C
