What are the Benefits of Using Nanostructured TBCs?
Nanostructured TBCs offer several benefits over conventional coatings:
Improved Thermal Insulation: Enhanced thermal barrier properties reduce the heat transfer to the underlying substrate. Increased Durability: Nanostructured materials exhibit higher resistance to thermal cycling and mechanical stress. Reduced Thermal Conductivity: The nanoscale features can scatter phonons, decreasing the thermal conductivity. Enhanced Adhesion: Better adhesion to substrates due to the increased surface area and unique chemical properties of nanoparticles.
