Work in NUST MISiS:
 

My present research work includes the development of a novel multilayered TBC system for more efficient aircraft and gas turbine engines by employment of rare earth oxides (CeO₂ and Sc₂O₃) as zirconia phase stabilizers, and rare-earth zirconates with low thermal conductivity, high phase stability, thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) close to that of metal substrate, high hardness, low Young modulus and high toughness desired properties.

Science: New Materials

Field of science: Coating and Thin films technologies of their receiving

Research area: Development of a novel multilayered thermal barrier coating (TBC) system for more efficient aircraft and gas turbine engines

Objectives: To develop a high performance novel multilayered TBC system for more efficient aircraft and gas turbine engines having low thermal conductivity, high phase stability, thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) close to that of metal substrate, high hardness, low Young modulus and high toughness.

Different ceramic powders will be air plasma sprayed to produce TBCs for turbine engine applications.

All the coatings will be examined with microstructure studies with typical defects, such as pores, microcracks and splat boundaries.

Effect of sintering on coating microstructure (typical defects, such as pores, microcracks and splat boundaries
