Issue Highlights:
Production of finely structured coating systems with the aid of ultrasonic excitation during arc wire spraying
Arc spraying constitutes an established process for the application of wear and corrosion protection coatings. During arc spraying, the particles are formed from the molten pool at the tips of the wire electrodes due to...
Development of cost-effective hardmetal coating solutions for high-temperature applications Part two: Effect of heat treatment and tribological properties
The aim of the present work was to investigate the effect of feedstock powder properties and the spraying process on the performance capabilities and cost-effectiveness of preparation of Cr3C2-NiCr coatings by high veloc...
Geometrically defined surface structures for the positive-locking substrate bonding of thermally sprayed coatings
In addition to the roughening of substrate and component surfaces for thermal spraying by means of blasting, chip-producing processes are also being utilised for surface activation to an increasing extent. One well-known...
