Although spraying fine particles is challenging due to the poor rheological properties of particles (e.g., low flowability and agglomeration), the potential improvements to the coatings make it an attractive option

Finite Element Modeling of Single-Particle Impacts for the Optimization of Antimicrobial Copper Cold Spray Coatings J. Therm. Spray Tech. (IF 2.522) Pub Date : 2020-09-24 Kristin Sundberg, Bryer C. Sousa, Jeremy Schreiber, Caitlin E. Walde, Timothy J. Eden, Richard D. Sisson, Danielle L. Cote
Prior work has demonstrated greater antipathogenic efficacy concerning the nanostructured copper cold spray coatings versus conventional copper cold spray coatings, while both the nanostructured and conventional cold spray coatings maintain greater contact killing/inactivation rates relative to other thermal spray deposition methods. Recent work has more heavily focused upon the nanostructured cold

Effect of Mild Oxidation on Ablation Properties of ZrSiO 4 Coating Prepared by Supersonic Atmospheric Plasma Spraying on Carbon/Carbon Composites J. Therm. Spray Tech. (IF 2.522) Pub Date : 2020-09-24 Can Sun, Cong-min Xu, Wei-feng Cao
To eliminate the thermal expansion mismatch and improve the bonding strength between ZrSiO4 coating prepared by supersonic atmospheric plasma spraying and C/C composites, a layer with porous structure was produced on the substrate by a preliminary air oxidation treatment. The morphology and microstructure of the ZrSiO4 coating were characterized by SEM and XRD. The results showed the coating prepared

A Review of the Mechanical and Tribological Behavior of Cold Spray Metal Matrix Composites J. Therm. Spray Tech. (IF 2.522) Pub Date : 2020-09-24 Lewei He, Mostafa Hassani
Cold spray is an effective solid-state process for the fabrication of metal matrix composites where metallic, ceramic, or intermetallic reinforcements are embedded in a metallic matrix. Cold-sprayed metal matrix composites (CS MMCs) enable combining favorable properties of their constituent phases. Combinations of the ductility of metals with the high strength of ceramics or with the creep resistance

Self-Sealing Metal-Supported SOFC Fabricated by Plasma Spraying and Its Performance under Unbalanced Gas Pressure J. Therm. Spray Tech. (IF 2.522) Pub Date : 2020-09-24 Jiu-Tao Gao, Jia-Hong Li, Yue-Peng Wang, Chang-Jiu Li, Cheng-Xin Li
A novel self-sealing structure for metal-supported solid oxide fuel cells (MS-SOFCs) is designed by applying brazing technology between the metal support and interconnector to solve the sealing problem on the anode side of planar SOFCs. A high-reliability self-sealing effect is thus realized at the anode side of the MS-SOFC. Plasma spraying technology is used to prepare cell functional layers including

Study on Deposition Behavior of Less Than 5 μm YSZ Particles in VLPPS J. Therm. Spray Tech. (IF 2.522) Pub Date : 2020-09-09 Jiu-Tao Gao, Lu-Xun Cheng, Yue-Peng Wang, Chang-Jiu Li, Cheng-Xin Li
A particular YSZ feedstock for very low-pressure plasma spraying (VLPPS) has been designed which can be automatically divided into less than 5 μm YSZ molten particles in the long plasma jet. Fully molten particles were deposited on the substrate at different deposition distances of 250, 350 and 450 mm, respectively. The deposition behavior of less than 5 μm YSZ molten particles were studied aiming

Ti2AlNb alloys are often used to fabricate high-pressure compressor blades and casings in aircraft engines with high thrust/weight ratios. In this study, a three-layered seal coating, NiCrFeAlBN-YSZ-NiCrAl, was prepared by thermal spraying on a titanium alloy (Ti2AlNb) substrate. The microstructure, surface hardness, and bond strength of coatings as well as their thermal cycling performance and abradability

Metal Matrix Composites Using Diamond-like Carbon-Coated Particles Fabricated by Cold Spray Technique J. Therm. Spray Tech. (IF 2.522) Pub Date : 2020-08-24 Nana Okimura, Jongbeom Choi, Wataru Nakayama, Nobuhisa Ata, Yuki Hirata, Naoto Ohtake, Hiroki Akasaka
Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films have a high hardness and a low friction coefficient. Therefore, DLC films are applied in industrial fields to reduce energy consumption. However, DLC films can only be obtained as coatings, and DLC films of only micrometer thickness can be deposited on substrates. In this study, we focused on the cold spray (CS) technique as a means of obtaining a DLC-containing metal

Particle–Substrate Transient Thermal Evolution During Cold Spray Deposition Process: A Hybrid Heat Conduction Analysis J. Therm. Spray Tech. (IF 2.522) Pub Date : 2020-08-17 Amirhossein Mahdavi, Aminallah Pourasghar, Zengtao Chen, André McDonald
A hybrid analytical heat conduction model was developed to predict the transient thermal evolution at the particle–substrate interface during the deposition of cold spray process. First, three-dimensional heat conduction model based on classical diffusion approach was developed to predict the transient surface temperature of the substrate. To that end, the traveling wave solution technique was utilized
