Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
With the demand for high-fidelity coating involving metallic, multilayer,
protective, and ceramic-based coatings, deposition methods have been introduced to
achieve quality coatings. High temperatures cause erosion-corrosion wear, oxidation,
and hot corrosion in materials operating in corrosive conditions. Among the various
methods used to protect surfaces from deterioration, the method of applying coatings
by high-velocity oxy-fuel spraying deserves special mention because it creates coatings
with increased hardness and resilience, low (less than 1%) porosity, and high erosioncorrosion and wear resistances. Deposition of these coatings using a typical thermal
spray process finds applications in the protection of base material in automobile,
aerospace, orthopaedic, thermal power plant, and gas pipeline sectors. We present the
potentials of the coatings and their respective protective properties. This chapter
provides the optimization and overviews of the use of various recently used coating
materials developed for the application in automotive, power plant, defence, gas and
steam, and orthopaedic sectors.
