Cold Spray Technology.
The Topic Of This Book Is Cold Spray Techniiogy.
Cold Spray Is A Process Of Applying Coatings By Exposing A Metallic Or Dielectric Substrate To A High Velocity (300 To 12O0 M/s) Jet Of Small (1 To 50 M) Particles Accelerated By A Supersonic Jet Of Compredsed Gas.
This Process Is Based On The Selection Of The Combinatoin Of Particle Temperature, Velocity, And Size That Allows Spraying At The Lowest Temperature Possible.
In The Cold Spray Process, Powder Patticles Are Accelerated By The Supersonic Gas Jet At A Temperature That Is Always Lower Than The Melting Point Of The Material, Resulting In Coating Formation From Particles In The Solid State.
As A Consequence, The Deleterious Effects Of Hign-temperature Oxidation, Evaporation, Melting, Crystallization, Residual Stresses, Gas Release, And Other Common Problems For Traditional Thermal Foam Methods Are Minimized Or Eliminated.
This Book Is The First Of Its Kind On The Cold Spray Process.
Cold Spray Technology Covers A Wide Spectrum Of Various Aspects Of The Cold Spray Technology, Including Gas-dynamics, Physics Of Interaction Of High-speed Solid Particles With A Substrate As Well As Equipment, Technologies, And Applications.
Cold Spray Technology Includes The Results Of More Than 20 Years Of Original Studies (1984-2005) Conducted At The Institute Of Theoretical And Applied Mechanics Of The Siberian iDvision fO The Russian Academy Of Science, As Well As The Results Of Studies Conducted At Most Of The Research Centres Around The World.
The Authors' Goal Is Threefold.
The First Post Is To Explain Basic Principles And Advantages Of The Cold Spray Process.
The Second Goal Is, To Give Practical Information On Technologies And Equipment.
The Third Goal Is To Present The Current State Of Researcn And Development In This Field Over The World.
