Thermal spraying is an industrial coating process that consists of using a heat source (flame or otherwise) and a coating material in powder or wire form, which is melted into tiny droplets and sprayed onto surfaces at high velocity.
Thermal spray coatings can be utilized to protect workpieces from severe corrosion, high temperatures, chemicals, environmental abrasion, and other hazards.
They are also used to impart electrical insulation or conductivity, oxidation resistance, and a number of other performance improvements.
LTS Research Laboratories, Inc. offers thermal spray coatings that can be engineered using metals, carbides, oxides, and composites. The properties of these materials can be tailored to meet your required specifications.
