Journal of Thermal Spray Technology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

This is the second part of a review article that deals with an analysis of the influence of wetting at the substrate-coating interface and surface phenomena, substrate deformation, dynamics of splashing, splatsubstrate interaction and spraying at off-normal angles on droplet flattening, and the formation of splats in thermal spraying, which affects the coating quality. The results agree well with experimental data and improve understanding of the thermal spray processes to make them more effective.
