This paper is devoted to thermal spraying and presents the state of our current knowledge,
as well as the following research or development needs: spraying heat sources, ie, flame …

The average dynamic and thermal behaviour of electric arc sprayed Fe–0.8 wt.% C droplets
has been investigated using a laser based time of flight velocimeter system (Laser2Focus …

Coatings of aluminum and zinc were applied on two thermoplastic materials, ultra-high
molecular weight polyethylene (PE) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), using twin wire-arc …

Thousands of patents address new coating types, new developments, new chemical
compositions. However, sometimes coatings is still considered as an" art". This book now …

The main aim of this study is the optimization of process parameters for minimizing the
porosity level and maximizing the hardness of AA2024 alloy coating developed on AZ31B …

By separating particles from the anode and the cathode wires, particle properties of
individual electrodes of the arc spray process were investigated. Bimodal size distribution …

A CFD study of the twin wire-arc spray process is presented in this paper. A three-
dimensional model was used to compute the flow inside and outside the spray gun and gas …

Thermally sprayed coatings are employed for many purposes, as corrosion protection, wear
resistance improvement, resistance to high temperatures, and others. The coating …

This paper examines the in-flight oxidation of aluminum sprayed in air using the twin-wire
electric arc (TWEA) thermal spray process. Aerodynamic shear at the droplet surface …

By using a computer image analysis method, the microstructure of deposits arc sprayed with
steel and copper wires as anode and cathode, respectively, were investigated and it was …
