Inspired by the self-healing function of biological organisms,Bionic Laser Alloying(BLA)process was adopted to fabricate the bionic self-healing Thermal Barrier Coatings(TBCs).The BLA with different fractions of TiAl3 self-healing agent and Ceria and Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia(CYSZ)on the plasma-sprayed 7YSZ TBCs was carried out by a pulsed Nd∶YAG laser.The effect of TiAl3 content on the microstructure,phase composition,and thermal shock behaviors of the bionic self-healing TBCs were investigated.Results indicated that the bionic self-healing TBCs had better thermal shock resistance than that of the as-sprayed TBCs.The thermal shock resistance increased first and then decreased with increasing TiAl3 fraction.The thermal shock resistance of the bionic self-healing TBCs with 15%TiAl3 is triple that of the as-sprayed TBCs.On one hand,the columnar crystals and vertical cracks could improve strain compatibility of TBCs during the thermal shock process;on the other hand,the TiAl3 as a self-healing agent reacted with oxygen in air at high temperature to seal the microcracks,thereby delaying the crack connection.
