abstract = {As structural materials for future fusion power plants,
reduced activation ferritic martensitic steels as EUROFER97
can be used. Unfortunately, the interaction of the plasma
with the steel would result in a limited lifetime, so
protective layers are investigated. An excellent protective
material is tungsten, as it shows unique properties with
respect to low sputtering, high melting points and low
activation. However, the mismatch of thermo-physical
properties between tungsten and EUROFER97 can lead to large
stress levels and even failure.A possible way to overcome
this problem is the use of functionally graded material
(FGM). The paper will describe the manufacture of these FGMs
by vacuum plasma spraying and their characterization. First
of all, two different feeding lines have been used to
produce the coatings. A major problem lies in different
melting points of tungsten and steel. So the particle size
distribution has to be adjusted to achieve sufficient
melting of both materials during the spray process. In a
second step, the feeding rates were optimized to obtain the
wanted amount of tungsten and steel phases in the graded
structures. In a thermal spray process, the gradient cannot
be made continuously, however it has to be applied in a
step-wise manner. In this investigation, samples with 3 and
5 different concentrations (excluding the pure steel and
tungsten part) have been produced. The microstructures of
these layers have been investigated. In addition, hardness
was measured and the residual stress state was determined by
the hole drilling method.},
