Ceramic Thermal Spray Coating

Typical thickness of 0 003 to 0 030 hard ceramic coating materials.

Ceramic thermal spray coating.

Coatings typically have a 150 microinch ra as sprayed finish. Coating materials include metals alloys carbides ceramics plastics cermets composites and blended materials. Very dense to porous depending on application requirements. Ceramics and thermal spray very often thermal spray involves the use of molten or heat softened material.

Through our plasma spray process we can feed various compositions of ceramic materials to create high quality coatings that enhance the performance of the underlying surface. These materials start out as a powder and are accelerated to a high velocity by rapid heating. Thermal spraying is a group of coating processes in which metallic and non metallic materials are deposited in a molten or semi molten condition to form a coating. Ceramic thermal spray coatings thermal spray technologies have propelled us past the time of mixing ceramics into resins or paint to add the benefits of ceramics to a surface coating.

Ceramic is one of the most common and versatile types of coatings that we apply at a a. Applied using a plasma coating process falmer can achieve strong even oxide layers as thin as 003 to 050. We utilize the plasma spray process with our ceramic thermal spray coatings to create intensely strong mechanical bonds at the atomic level. Ceramics applied by thermal spray are used for dielectric strength.
