Plasma and Thermal Spraying

This book presents the principles of plasma and heat spraying. It introduces plasma jet and the formation of plasma sprayed coatings. It explains the adhesion process and also presents standard methods for measurement according to DIN forms. Some case studies are presented for illustration.

Describes the theoretical analysis of plasma and thermal spraying Useful for researchers interested in adhesion in metal and ceramic materials Presents the principles of coating adhesion to the base material Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
