Abstract
Films of -Al2O3, 4:m to 6:m thick, have been coated onto inconel using the continuous-dip coating technique. The as-deposited films on an Inconel 600 substrate are amorphous and exhibit a thermal diffusivity of (0.0033 0.0004) cm2@s-1, a value comparable to that of window glass. The films can be crystallized by heat-treating at 800 EC to 1000 EC for 3 h under flowing dry nitrogen gas. The thermal diffusivity of the crystalline films increased with annealing temperature. However, heat-treatment also resulted in large-scale porosity and cracks within the films which limited their thermal diffusivity to (0.0219 0.0022) cm2@s-1.Citation
