Abstract Plasma-sprayed Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coatings have been used in gas turbines for decades. They are applied for thermal insulation to increase operating temperature and hence efficiency and component’s lifetime. To keep manufacturing costs low, especially deposition efficiency is important. However, increasing it is also related to a reduction in porosity, affecting the insulating properties of the layer.

Abstract To prevent spontaneous oxidation during the high-temperature synthesis of non-oxide ceramics, an inert atmosphere is conventionally required1,2. This, however, results in high energy demand and high production costs.
