Combustion Processes (Flame)
NTST no longer offers coatings produced with any combustion process. However, consulting regarding the use of these processes is available.
Combustion processes combine air, oxygen, and a fuel gas to generate a high temperature, high velocity plume that is optimum for producing metallic coatings. With the relatively low flame temperature of the processes, the feedstock is melted by convective heat transfer with no superheating or vaporization of the droplets. When the droplets strike the substrate, their temperature peaks as the high kinetic energy of the droplet is transformed into thermal energy and the droplets causing thickness buildup. The Flame process (e.g. Figures 1&2) utilizes subsonic gas velocities to fabricate coatings.
