Description of Thermal Spraying of Molybdenum Powder
The materials for thermal spray coatings are typically available in the form of powder, wire or rods. They are heated and converted into particles with dimensions in the micrometre range. Consequently, the particles are accelerated onto the substrates, thereby forming a coating.
Molybdenum powder for thermal spraying is frequently used in the automotive industry for the manufacture of engine pistons and timing rings owing to its low friction coefficient, high sliding wear resistance and ductility. Coatings produced from molybdenum offer consistent friction properties and resistance to adhesive wear, given that a bonded oxide layer forms promptly after spraying. The coatings are also hard, exhibit lubricative characteristics and provide excellent dry running performance.
