Progress in thermal spraying for corrosion protection Available to Purchase

Thermal spraying is a problem‐solving technology which contributes to almost every branch of engineering from the extraction and production of raw materials to the manufacture of usable articles. By placing the correct surfacing material where it is best employed, thermal spraying allows engineers to improve product performance, reduce maintenance times and costs, save energy and reduce production costs. As the demands of other technologies have increased the thermal spraying industry has responded by providing surfaces which will reliably withstand higher loads, faster speeds, higher temperatures and more aggressive environments. Over the past decade, building on previous knowledge and experience, thermal spraying technology has contributed to the engineering successes in many spheres by enabling the engineer to apply the right surface to the optimum basis material at reasonable cost.
