Thermal spraying — Determination of interfacial toughness of ceramic coatings by indentation

ISO 20267:2017 specifies a method for measuring the interfacial toughness of thermal spray ceramic coatings at room temperature based on an indentation method. The interfacial toughness is calculated from the mean length of cracks emanating from the corners of the impression induced by a Vickers hardness tester, and it is intended for use with ceramic coatings with a single layer or multilayers. The test procedures proposed in this document are intended for use in an ambient environment. ISO 20267:2017 is recommended for thermal spray ceramic coatings such as thermal barrier coatings, wear resistant coatings and electrical insulating coatings.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

Introduction
The interfacial toughness of thermal spray ceramic coatings is required for two reasons:
a) to understand quantitatively degradation of adhesion in service;
b) for life assessment of the coated components.
Adhesion strength of thermal spray coatings is usually measured in accordance with the tensile
method specified by ISO 14916. However, there is a technical limitation in the application of ISO 14916.
It requires preparation of a tensile adhesion test specimen using glue and, as such, coatings with
higher adhesion strength than glue cannot be quantitatively evaluated. By virtue of its simplicity and
practicality, an indentation method is a promising method to evaluate the adhesion of such coatings. In
this method, a Vickers hardness tester is used. An interfacial toughness value is evaluated by measuring
a length of the crack formed after pushing the indenter on the coating interface. The application of the
method specified in this document can reduce uncertainty over the adhesion strength evaluation of
coatings and makes it possible to evaluate the adhesion strength in a simpler way.
-3/2
The results can be expressed either as a stress intensity factor, in MN∙m , or as a fracture surface
-2
energy, in J∙m .
“Interfacial toughness” can have several meanings.
-3/2
a) Interfacial fracture toughness, K , in MN∙m , is a material constant that shows how easily the
Ic
coating may be peeled away from a substrate.
b) Energy release rate (or work done to fracture), G, is an alternative expression for interfacial fracture
2 2
toughness, often obtained by converting K to G [i.e. G = K (1 - ν )/E, where E is Young’s modulus and
-2
ν is Poisson’s ratio]. G has units of J∙m .
For the purposes of developing the test method, the term indentation interfacial toughness, K , is
IFC
defined separately from interfacial fracture toughness, K . The indentation interfacial toughness is
Ic
a value obtained by using Vickers hardness tester, and is calculated from the total length of cracks
induced along the interface by the indentation. Shorter crack lengths indicate that the coating has
higher interfacial toughness or adhesion strength than other samples with longer cracks. There is no
standard method to determine such interfacial toughness for thermal spray ceramic coatings, and
different organizations or groups currently use their own evaluation procedures.
When measurements are carefully performed following the methods defined in this document,
the evaluation of crack length, and thus interfacial toughness, will not require much effort and can
describe the adhesion characteristics of the system (substrate chemistry, pre-preparation/roughness
of substrate surface, coating chemistry and properties). This document recommends good practice to
minimize uncertainty in the measurement procedures.
