- This work represents a preliminary study of atmospheric plasma-sprayed (APS) YttriaStabilized Zirconia (YSZ)-based thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) deposited on forged and additivemanufactured (AM) HAYNES®282® (H282) superalloy substrates. The effect of different feedstockmorphologies and spray gun designs with radial and axial injection on APS-deposited YSZ layercharacteristics such as microstructure, porosity content, roughness, etc., has been investigated. Theperformance of TBCs in terms of thermal cycling fatigue (TCF) lifetime and erosion behaviour werealso comprehensively investigated. In view of the high surface roughness of as-built AM surfacescompared to forged substrates, two different types of NiCoCrAlY bond coats were examined: oneinvolved high-velocity air fuel (HVAF) spraying of a finer powder, and the other involved APSdeposition of a coarser feedstock. Despite the process and feedstock differences, the above two routesyielded comparable bond coat surface roughness on both types of substrates. Variation in porositylevel in the APS topcoat was observed when deposited using different YSZ feedstock powdersemploying axial or radial injection. However, the resultant TBCs on AM-derived substrates wereobserved to possess similar microstructures and functional properties as TBCs deposited on reference(forged) substrates for any given YSZ deposition process and feedstock.
