Nanostructured thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) often exhibit bimodal structure comprised of both nanozones and lamellar zones, and therefore, their sintering behaviour can be different from that of conventional coatings. In this study, changes in the microstructure and properties of nanostructured T...
