Abstract
At its early stages of development, thermal spray technology was mostly used for the repair, rebuilding, retrofitting, and for surface protection against corrosion, erosion and wear. The wider acceptance of the technology for industrial-scale production has started in the late eighties and early nineties, with applications limited to high added-value components in the aeronautic and nuclear industry. Over the two past decades, a wide range of industrial-scale surface modification processes became available. The choice of a specific coating and/or thermal spray process, for a given service condition, depends, however, on the expectation of the user and the cost that could be tolerated for the application. This chapter presents the advantages and limitations of the different spray processes. Then the different coating applications are described, with coatings resistant to wear, corrosion and oxidation, providing thermal protection, clearance control, good bonding, electrical and electronic properties, free standing spray-formed parts, medical applications, replacement of hard chromium… potential applications. These applications are then presented according to the industrial users: aerospace, land-based turbines, automotive, electrical and electronic industries, corrosion applications for land-based and marine applications, medical engineering, ceramic and glass manufacturing, printing, pulp and paper, metal processing, petroleum and chemical industries, electrical utilities, textile and plastic, polymers, reclamation… The development of thermal sprayed coatings in the different countries is then discussed, the last part of the chapter being about the economic analysis of the different spray processes.
These are presently accepted for applications ranging from tribological and wear resistant applications including lubricity and low-friction surfaces, to resistance to corrosion and/or oxidation, thermal protection, freestanding components, electrical and optical components, electromagnetic shielding, electrical insulation, abradable seals, biomedical applications, superconducting oxides, components with coefficient of thermal expansion tailored to service conditions, magnetic coatings, solid oxide fuel cells, replacement of hard chromium, as well as ornamental applications.. This affected, in turn, the selection of the material to be applied for the coating, and the spray process to be used. The coating design process is often complicated, by the fact that in practice components are not always devoted to a single requirement such as wear or corrosion or electrical insulation or thermal insulation. In most cases, coatings must resist to different combined needs: for example, wear is often linked to corrosion.

Appendix: Use of the Different Spray Materials
In this appendix only basic information about the main sprayed materials and the most frequently sprayed materials are presented. For more detailed information the reader must consult the different powder and wire suppliers. It must also be kept in mind that the coating resulting from the spray process has properties (thermal and electrical conductivities for example) different from those of powder or wire properties. Such differences result from the increase of the oxide content, the pores generated during spraying, the real contacts between layered splats, … Properties also depend on the way the sprayed material has been manufactured. In the following X-20Y-10Z means 20 wt% of Y, 10 wt% of Z, the balance being X.

18.1.2 A.2 Ceramics (Oxides)
For most oxides the thermal expansion coefficient is low compared to that of most metals and it has to be taken into account because they are often used at high temperature.
Alumina Al2O3 (T m = 2,050 °C)
-
Main problem: Starting from α phase, melting and fast cooling (spraying) result in γ phase. Unfortunately around 1,000 °C γ phase transforms into α phase with a volume increase of about 4 % resulting in coating peeling off. Thus coatings should be used below 900 °C

-
Poor resistance to shock or impact loading

-

-
Interesting mechanical properties
-
Good wear resistance
-
Low thermal conductivity (1–5 W/m K)
-
Three phases: monoclinic (m), tetragonal (t), and cubic (c). Upon cooling around 1,000 °C, cubic or tetragonal phases transform into monoclinic with volume increase of about 10 % and coating peeling off. Thus only totally (c phase) or partially (t′ non-transformable t phase) stabilized zirconia can be sprayed.
Most used stabilizers are CaO, MgO, Y2O3, CeO2. CaO and MgO are rather cheap but the maximum service temperature is about 500 °C. Very good results are obtained with Y2O3; with about 8 wt% t′ phase is obtained, while with13 wt% c phase is obtained, as with 24–25 wt% CeO2. The maximum service temperature (about 1,350 °C at the best) depends not only on the phase (best results with c phase) but also on the way the powder is manufactured (see Sect. 11.1.2.9) best results being obtained when zirconia and stabilizer particles are very small and uniformly distributed.
-

-
They are mainly used as thermal barriers.
-

-

-
Good resistance to combustion gases
18.1.3 A.3 Cermets
They are made of a metal matrix, to achieve a good toughness, where are imbedded ceramic particles either of oxides or carbides for the hardness and wear resistance. Here again the manufacturing process plays a key role, for example, sintered particles behaving very differently than blended ones.
With oxides. In most cases they are blends. For example
Al2O3–30(Ni–20Al)
-
Denser coatings than pure ceramic, more abrasion, and shock resistant, hard, and smooth
-
Addition of alumina particles modifies the electrical resistance of the metal matrix
MCrAlY + Al2O3 (<3 μm)
-
Hardness increases with Al2O3 content
-
Electrical resistance decreases with Al2O3 %
With carbides (the most used)
Most used ones are:
WC, Cr3C2, and also sometimes TiC
-
If all of them have melting temperatures over 1,900 °C (for example, T m = 2,870 °C for WC) they are relatively sensitive to oxidation
-
WC oxidation starts at 500–600 °C and oxidation produces W2C decomposing into W over 1300 °C
Cr3C2
-
Is not the only chromium carbide: Cr7C3 (T m = 1,782 °C), Cr23C6 (T m = 1,518 °C). Cr3C2 is mostly used in spraying and its oxidation starts at 800–900 °C, however, Cr23C6 has an excellent wear resistance.
TiC
-
Has a unique cubic phase (T m = 3,170 °C), which oxidation starts at 800–900 °C.
-
At last carbides dissolve more or less in the liquid metal or alloy matrix, the dissolution increasing with temperature over the matrix melting temperature. The metal matrix lowers the wear resistance of carbides but increases resistance to mechanical or thermal shock. Phase changes of metal matrix must be avoided during the service (for example, that of Co occurs at about 480 °C). To conclude chemical changes occur during spraying especially in air atmosphere: oxidation, decomposition, and dilution. Thus microstructural properties of sprayed cermets depend strongly on spray conditions (VPS, IPS, APS, HVOF, HVAF, …), particle morphology and manufacturing process, and ceramic mean grain size. Only a few examples are given below:
WC–8Co

18.1.4 A.4 Abradables
They are designed to wear preferentially upon contact with mating part in order to automatically establish clearance. They comprise a metal matrix and non-metallic filler such as graphite, polyester, polymide, boron nitride, and friable material, the role of filler being to weaken the matrix integrity. The metal matrix is made of Ni, Al, Cu, Co bases, and superalloys.
The main difference of the base material is related to service temperature.
