Abstract

This compilation of research investigates diverse thermal spray coating technologies. Studies explore the influence of process parameters and powder characteristics on coating microstructure and mechanical properties. Techniques like APS, HVOF, cold spray, and laser cladding are examined for their effectiveness in enhancing wear resistance, corrosion protection, and thermal insulation. Findings underscore the importance of optimized spraying conditions and feedstock selection for achieving dense, well-adhered coatings with superior performance in aerospace, industrial, and high-temperature applications
