Abstract
Glass-ceramics, known for their thermal stability and strong adhesion to metal substrates, are widely used as protective coatings for high-temperature application. But they usually suffered from inherent brittleness and high susceptibility to cracking. Traditional approaches to improve fracture toughness via incorporation of metal particles have often failed due to the ongoing reactions between the particles and the corrosive media. In this study, thermal shock resistance was significantly enhanced by doping oxidation-resistant soft metal particles, specifically Ag. The interface crystallization increases bonding strength, ensures complete plastic deformation of Ag particles under thermal stress, thereby enhancing fracture toughness and preventing matrix cracking. After 100 thermal shock cycles at 700 °C, the Ag-doped glass-ceramic coating exhibited superior performance, with high oxidation resistance, no crack initiation and a minimal mass loss of 0.04 mg/cm². This approach addresses the brittleness challenge of glass-ceramics, while fully utilizing the advantage of oxidation resistance.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the European Ceramic Society publishes the results of original research and reviews relating to ceramic materials. Papers of either an experimental or theoretical character will be welcomed on a fully international basis. The emphasis is on novel generic science concerning the relationships between processing, microstructure and properties of polycrystalline ceramics consolidated at high temperature. Papers may relate to any of the conventional categories of ceramic: structural, functional, traditional or composite. The central objective is to sustain a high standard of research quality by means of appropriate reviewing procedures.
