Cold Spray of metallic coatings on polymer and composite materials [SAT]

 

Improving of thermal and lightning strike resistant properties of the aircraft polymer components and composite materials requires innovative approach for top surface deposition. Conventional spraying technologies although highly efficient do not work properly with temperature sensitive powder and substrate materials. Development of Cold Spray, as alternative technique, could guarantee no porous, no oxidised, and no chemically and phase changed fully functional metallic coatings that meet suitable requirements. Please refer to the full topic descriptions document published in this call.
