Abstract
Three thermal spray coatings were subjected to high-temperature corros ion experiments to characterize the operative corrosion mechanism(s) a nd to examine the effects of coating composition and microstructure. S amples were placed In air and sulfur dioxide (SO2) at 600 degrees C fo r exposure times up to 1,000 h. The ability of a thermal spray coating to protect its substrate effectively was found to depend upon its ten dency to form protective oxides and upon the cross-sectional distance from the coating surface to the substrate via fast diffusion paths suc h as splat boundaries and voids.
