As a new self-healing agent, Ti3SiC2 was added into yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) thermal barrier coatings. By atmospheric plasma spraying (APS), thick coatings were prepared using an YSZ–Ti3SiC2 mixing powder. To observe oxidation and self-healing behavior, cracks were prefabricated on the surface of YSZ–Ti3SiC2 coating by uniform external load. The prepared samples were then isothermally treated at 1050℃ in air. The phase and morphology evolution of the coatings, as well as the self-healing behavior were investigated via several analyzing methods. The results showed that a part of Ti3SiC2 was decomposed into amorphous SiO2 and TiC after spraying and a double layered structure composed of a TiO2 outer layer and a TiO2+SiO2 inner layer was formed after isothermal treatment. In the process of self-healing, oxidation of the healing agent in the coating led to the growth of silicon oxide and titanium oxide in the cracks. These oxides gradually filled the cracks due to the diffusion-controlled oxidation. Meanwhile, the compressive stress induced by the volume expansion due to SiO2 and TiO2 growth in the crack enhanced the healing effect. Eventually the prefabricated cracks were healed.
