Abstract
The micro processes such as heating, acceleration, impact, spreading and solidification of spray droplets in plasma jet can guide the optimization design of coating more scientifically. Taking typical ceramic, metal and cermet coatings such as BaTiO3, WC, Fe based amorphous and YSZ as examples, this chapter introduces in detail how to realize rapid optimization of coatings from the micro process.
