| Abstract Scope |
Cold spray is a process by which solid metal powders are accelerated at supersonic velocities towards a substrate. On impact, these powders deposit and form a coating, but metal powders that are hard enough to prove useful as a coating often erode the substrate at deposition velocity. To solve this problem, we can use electroplating, an electrolytic process, to coat the metal powder in a more ductile outer layer before cold spray. Development is focused on the production of novel materials pairings for various applications. |
