Dy:YAG Phosphor Coating Using the Solution Precursor Plasma Spray Process

Superhydrophobic Ceramic Coatings by Solution Precursor Plasma Spray

This work presents a novel coating technique to manufacture ceramic superhydrophobic coatings rapidly and economically. A rare earth oxide (REO) was selected as the coating material due to its hydrophobic nature, chemical inertness, high temperature stability, and good mechanical properties, and deposited on stainless steel substrates by solution precursor plasma spray (SPPS). The effects of va...

Numerical (CFD) Analysis of Thermal Spray Coating Process

An Optimization Of Spray Coating Process To Minimize Coating Material Consumption

In cookware industry, interior spray coating process is an important process to protect the cookware product from the corrosion. In this process, the coating material “TEFLON” is used to spray to cover all the part’s surface. If a pot or pan is not too deep, one spray gun is enough to spray to cover all the interior surface. However, for the high side-wall pot, two spray guns must be used to sp...

Phosphor-Doped Thermal Barrier Coatings Deposited by Air Plasma Spray for In-Depth Temperature Sensing

Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ)-based thermal barrier coating (TBC) has been integrated with thermographic phosphors through air plasma spray (APS) for in-depth; non-contact temperature sensing. This coating consisted of a thin layer of Dy-doped YSZ (about 40 µm) on the bottom and a regular YSZ layer with a thickness up to 300 µm on top. A measurement system has been established; which include...

Study on the influence of spray parameters of Ar - N 2 Plasma spray process using CFD analysis

Thermal sprayed surface coatings are extensively used for a wide range of industrial applications. In the plasma spray process used in thermal spraying, the temperature of substrate and conduction of heat along the thickness of ceramic oxide coatings (TCOC) play an important role in the bond strength and microstructure of the coatings, which decides its performance and quality. In this study, u...
