The goal of this work is to validate the existing plasma spray mathematical models, using a calculation method and comparison with experimental data, in order determine their validity. A preliminary evaluation adhesion based on velocity temperature particles useful be calculated by model. Given thermal-physical properties chemical composition Fe-based amorphous X-5 powder, modified model was su...

In this research, Cr2O3 ceramic nano-sized powder particles were prepared using ball milling and then granulated to reach the proper size for spraying. Afterward, nano-coatings deposited by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) process onto stainless steel substrates. To optimize APS parameters, was carried out under six conditions with different parameters. Microstructures of elemental/milled coat...

Fungicides manufactured to control soybean rust are effective; however, successful control of this disease will mostly depend on proper application methods. Spray coverage and deposition from 9 application equipment/spray nozzles were analyzed. In general, the spray treatments with air assistance were more effective in spraying rust fungicides than the treatments with the conventional boom spra...
