Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) have been qualified for their thermo-mechanical performance and durability using Furnace Cycle Testing (FCT) for decades. FCT provides guidance toward materials and process improvements. Although FCT is a relatively straightforward test, the interpretation can often b...
