Abstract
Background
The elastic–plastic fracture toughness (Jc) is an important mechanical parameter for studying the failure behavior of air plasma-sprayed (APS) thermal barrier coatings (TBC) at high temperatures.
Objective
This study aims to: (1) develop an effective test method to characterize the Jc of TBC at high temperatures; (2) acquire accurate Jc data for TBC at high temperatures; (3) analyze the influence of plasticity of top-coat on the Jc characterization.
Methods
The elastic–plastic Ramberg–Osgood equation of the ceramic top-coat and the deformation fields of single edge notched tension (SENT) specimens were measured by high-temperature in-situ tension with digital image correlation (DIC) system. The Jc of TBC was calculated by the numerical J-integral with DIC-measured (DIC-J) deformation fields by adopting Ramberg–Osgood equation of the top-coat. The finite element analysis (FEA) method was adopted to analyze the influence of plasticity of top-coat on the Jc characterization.
Results
The curves of Jc varying with crack propagation length (Δa) of TBC were obtained and were expressed as JR = 24.47 × [ 1 + 1.0446 × (\(\widetilde{\Delta a}\))0.7624] J/m2 and JR = 16.52 × [ 1 + 1.4806 × (\(\widetilde{\Delta a}\))0.6742] J/m2 at 800 and 1000 ℃, respectively.
Conclusions
A high-temperature in-situ tensile test of SENT specimens combined with the DIC-J method was developed to characterize Jc of TBC. The Jc of TBC displays a rising resistance curve behavior, and FEA results indicated that Jc would be underestimated without considering the plasticity of the top-coat at 800 and 1000 ℃.
