Internal hydrophobing of thermally sprayedcoatings
One of the most important assessment criterions of thermally sprayed coatings is pull-off strength. High pull-off strength generally requires a rough and uncontaminated surface. Prior to the coating process, the substrat...
Manufacture of composite diamond/metal coatingsusing thermal spraying procedures
Diamond is the hardest known material and therefore generates continuous interest in applications with the highest stresses in the various industrial sectors. Because of the prices of natural diamonds, synthetic diamonds...
Effect of particle and carbide grain sizes on aHVOAF WC-Co-Cr coating for the future applicationon internal surfaces: microstructure and wear
The use of nanoscale WC grain or finer feedstock particles are two possible methods of improving the properties and performance of WC-Co-Cr coatings. Finer powders are being pursued for the development of coating interna...
