Thermal Barrier Coatings Market Segment Analysis – By Application
The Gas turbines segment occupied the largest share in the Thermal Barrier Coatings market in 2021 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% during 2022-2027. Thermal barrier coatings are commonly used to protect nickel-based superalloys from both melting and thermal cycling in aviation gas turbines. According to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, in 2020, the aviation gas turbine sales accounted for $44.6 billion for the sales of 9,993 units, which went down from $74.7 billion in 2018. That decline was entirely due to reduced production in the civilian aviation market, a two-year decline of 46 percent. Combined with the cool airflow, Thermal barrier coatings increase the allowable gas temperature above that of the superalloy melting point. Furthermore, Thermal barrier coatings reduce the temperature of the blade alloy and protect against oxidation and hot corrosion from high-temperature gas, thus, increasing that turbine performance, life expectancy, and efficiency. For example, in a commercial jet engine, the fuel burns at up to 2,000°C in the combustion chamber. The turbine, which extracts energy from the heated gases and provides the engine power, is exposed to gases at between 850-1700°C. Yet increasing engine efficiency means increasing the temperature within the turbine inlet even further. The gas turbine blades need to be able to work and withstand long operating periods at these temperatures that are above their melting point. Hence, for this important advantage of Thermal barrier Coatings, the gas turbine segment is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period 2022 – 2027.

Thermal Barrier Coatings Market Challenges
Degradation and other problems associated with thermal barrier coatings
The majorly used Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) as a material in the Thermal barrier coatings has challenges like limited operation temperature, despite being the present industry standard. Pyrochlores are suggested as a possible replacement for YSZ by a study published by Linköping Studies in Science and Technology. Additionally, improvements to the traditional YSZ within the sort of nanostructured YSZ were also explored. The requirement for the new deposition process comes from the very fact that the prevailing low-cost deposition processes, like atmospheric plasma spray (APS), generally exhibit lower strain tolerance. A relatively new technique, suspension plasma spray (SPS), known to be promising with better strain tolerance, has been identified. In the gas turbine operating environment and conditions, Thermal Barrier Coatings degrade and eventually break down. Common challenges observed in gas turbines are often because of corrosion, the thermal mismatch between the ceramic and the metallic layers, and “Bond coat oxidation during thermal cycling”. Suspension plasma sprayed (SPS) and Atmospheric plasma sprayed (APS) Thermal Barrier Coatings were subjected to different test conditions to know their corrosion behavior. A study on the multi-layered Suspension Plasma Sprayed – Thermal Barrier Coatings in the presence of V2O5 + Na2SO4 showed that YSZ based SPS coatings were less susceptible to corrosion damage compared to Gd2Zr2O7 SPS TBCs.
