Thermal spray coatings have emerged as a transformative surface engineering technique, enabling the enhancement of material performance in harsh operational environments. By propelling molten or ...

Most coatings have a functional purpose as well as a decorative one. Paint protects a car's body against the elements while adding razzle-dazzle to its appearance. Some coatings, though, are mainly ...

Researchers’ interest in thermal spraying varies from the very practical to the uncommon and theoretical studies. In between this lies the July 2000 issue of Materials Research Bulletin titled ...

The demands for engineering coatings are becoming more and more stringent. Environmental concerns are also being considered as an integral part of the design process. For future economic ...
