Suspension plasma spraying (SPS) consists in injecting a non-Newtonian liquid in a d.c. plasma jet where it is fragmented and then vaporized. The sub-micrometric or nanometric particles contained in the suspension are then accelerated, heated, partially or totally melted before flattening onto the substrate to form the coating. Such coatings are finely structured and present better thermo-mechanical...
Summary form only given. Due to the large volume fraction of the internal interfaces, coatings structured at the nanoscale should exhibit better properties than conventional coatings structured at the microscale. However, when processing by thermal plasmas such feedstock, several questions arise: (i) how feeding the plasma jet with nanosized powders? (ii) how keeping their nanostructured structures...
