The brittle failure of ceramic coatings limits their application in many fields. To address this issue, a novel armoured ceramic coating was developed to suppress brittle failure. First, an interconnected frame microstructure was micromachined onto the surface of a mild steel substrate using a nanosecond laser. Subsequently, a polymer-derived ceramic slurry was sprayed and sintered to obtain an armoured ceramic coating. The laser-micromachined burr-like microstructure of the substrate facilitated adhesion between the coating and the substrate. The results of the mechanical properties test showed that the armoured coating could withstand more than 20 cycles of water-cooled thermal shock at 600 °C, and the peeling area of the armoured coating was approximately three times less than that of the unarmoured coating under a normal load of 1471 N. The laboratory and field corrosion test results indicated that at high temperatures, the corrosion resistance of the armoured coating was comparable with that of the unarmoured coating and was approximately 10 times higher than that of the uncoated sample. The proposed method will aid in suppressing the brittle failure of ceramic coatings and broaden their scope of application in different fields.
