This study presents the thermal and chemical resistance of plasma-sprayed Al2O3 and Al2O3 doped with 13 wt.% of TiO2 coatings and their suitability for the fire grate of straw pellet furnaces. Coatings were deposited on steel substrates using direct current atmospheric pressure plasma spraying. The surface structure, elemental, and phase composition of formed coatings were analyzed before and after the thermal treatment, imitating natural application conditions. For the experiment, the annealing temperature was 500 °C for twenty-five cycles (80 min each). It was found that the steel substrate oxidized after five thermal cycles, and the formation of iron oxides was observed. The elemental composition of the Al2O3 and Al2O3-13 wt.% TiO2 coatings remained unchanged even after 25 cycles of heat treatment. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results revealed that the alpha-Al2O3 to gamma-Al2O3 phase ratio in the Al2O3-TiO2 coating was reduced by only 8.7% after 25 cycles.
