Sprayed coatings detonation process

There are two ways in which coatings can be applied thermomechanical processes (e.g. detonation gun, flame spraying and plasma spraying) and vapour phase deposition processes. The latter category can be subdivided into CVD (chemical vapour deposition) and PVD (physical vapour deposition). In the case of a CVD process, a chemical reaction takes place in an oven and as a result the coating material is formed and deposited on the object. Figures 11.7.9 and 11.7.10 are representations of two methods to apply coatings.

Thermal spray processing A coating process where material (wire, rod, powder) is melted by a flame, plasma, electric arc, or some other means and the molten particles are propelled in a high velocity gas stream to the substrate surface, where they are splat cooled at a high quench rate.
