Thermal spraying methods of metal-powder composites

Gorlov D.S., Ivanov I.M., Artemenko N.I.
Abstract

This paper provides an analysis of the main thermal spraying methods used to apply protective and hardening coatings based on metal powder composites. The advantages and disadvantages of various thermal spraying methods are discussed, as well as the key physical conditions and characteristics of the resulting coatings. It is shown that the most optimal thermal spraying method for applying the coating application must be selected based on a compromise between the required quality and process productivity.

Keywords
thermal spraying, protective and hardening coatings, metal powders, metal-powder composites, atmospheric plasma spraying, high velocity oxygen fuel spraying, cold spraying
