Elastic-plastic material properties for HVOF-sprayed Ti_2AlC (sprayed with MAXTHAL 211 powder) and plasma sprayed NiCoCrAlY coatings were investigated using modelling and experimental Berkovich micro-indentation. Optical microstructure evaluations were also performed. The theories of Hertz, Oliver and Pharr were combined with finite element analysis for extracting the material properties. Empirically-based material models for both thermal sprayed Ti_2AlC and NiCoCrAlY coatings are proposed.
