Different methods are employed to protect the material from degradation. Thermal spraying is one of the most effective method to protect the material from wear, high temperature corrosion, stresses and erosion, thus increasing the life of material in use. Detonation gun spraying is one of the thermal spraying techniques known for providing hard, wear resistant and dense microstructured coatings. This paper summarizes the results of previous research done by various authors on different coatings done by detonation gun spraying technique. Keywords: thermal spraying, detonation gun 1. INTRODUCTION Thermal spraying is an effective and low cost method to apply thick coatings to change surface properties of the component. Coatings are used in a wide range of applications including automotive systems, boiler components, and power generation equipment, chemical process equipment, aircraft engines, pulp and paper processing equipment, bridges, rollers and concrete reinforcements, orthopedics and dental, TI - A Review on Detonation Gun Sprayed Coatings JF - Journal of Minerals and Materials Characterization and Engineering DO - 10.4236/jmmce.2012.113019 DA - 2012-01-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/a-review-on-detonation-gun-sprayed-coatings-kC2ZVzitiO DP - DeepDyve ER -
