Alloying: Technology Overview and Applications
Key
Benefits of the ESA Process
- metallurgical
bond
-
low heat input eliminates distortion or metallurgical changes
in the substrate
-
special properties and amorphous layers possible through
rapid solidification
-
coatings typically exhibit higher load tolerance, lower
wear rate, and
lower corrosion rate than similar materials applied by other
processes
-
little or no substrate preparation required
-
little or no surface finishing required
-
environmentally benign
-
reproducible process
-
operators easily trained
-
portable process and equipment
-
easily automated
-
applicable to I.D. surfaces (down to 3/8 “ ID) and
complex shapes
-
can apply most electrically conductive materials (metals
& cermets)
