Abstract:
TiO
2 coatings were produced by atmospheric plasma spraying system.H
2 flow rate was adjusted to investigate its effect on the microstructure, phase and electrical conductivity of TiO
2 coatings.The results show that TiO
2 coating is mainly composed of rutile, anatase and deoxidization phases Magneli(Ti
nO
2n-1,
n=4-10), and the contents of them depend on H
2 flow rate.With the increasing of H
2 flow rate, porosity decreases, deoxidization phase Magneli and the electrical conductivity of coatings increase.The electrical conductivity of TiO
2 coatings also increases with temperature.
