Abstract
In the article first tests of production of YSZ ceramic coatings using PS-PVD method on graphite were presented. The influence of hydrogen addition on structure and morphology of columns was analyzed. It was shown that width of the columns increased with the increase of hydrogen content in the plasma. The presence of re-solidified oxide vapors between ceramic columns was observed. The obtained results showed the possibility of using of YSZ ceramic layer as a protective layer for metallurgical applications.
