The invention relates to a
thermal barrier coating material of a eutectic structure and a method for manufacturing
thermal spraying powder particles by utilizing the material, which belongs to the technical field of high temperature-resistant
ceramic materials. The
structural formula of the material is (Ln11-xLn2x)2Zr2O7, and the material comprises two elements Ln1 and Ln2 in the form of
metal oxides of at least two metals selected from La, Ce, La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Ho, Yb, Y and Sc, wherein the content x of the two elements is larger than or equal to 0.2 and smaller than or equal to 0.8. Raw materials are subjected to ball milling and then are mixed up, dried and pressed into blanks. After reacting with one another in an
air atmosphere at 1500 DEG C to 1650 DEG C for a certain period of time, the materials form the (Ln11-xLn2x)2Zr2O7 eutectic material having two crystalline phases. Synthesized materials are ground to be fine and then mixed with a binder and a dispersing agent for ball-milling operation. After the
spray granulation process, microspheres of 30 to 60 [mu]m in
ball diameter can be obtained for preparing a heat-insulating
coating through the
plasma thermal-spraying process. The
thermal barrier coating prepared by the above method is low in heat
conductivity coefficient and high in
toughness. The
coating deterioration defect due to the growth and the
sintering of
crystal grains in a high-temperature
working environment for a long term can be overcome.
