Hot gas atomized melts - potentials for thermal spray powders

The atomization of molten materials using hot gases has advantages in comparison to the conventional gas atomization techniques. Some of these advantages favour the hot gas technology for the powder production for thermal spraying. Firstly, a considerably higher output of fine powder, in particular within the important particle size range between 5 and 30 µm, is a result of hot (inert) gas atomization. The reasons are the strongly increased gas exit velocity and the higher overall temperatures inside the interaction zone of the gas and the melt droplets.

The enhanced shear forces acting on the molten liquid and the prolonged liquid state of the atomized particles lead to a more efficient atomization. Secondly, the extended time regime for liquid droplets facilitates the atomization of highly viscous melts, such as oxide melts, and results in more spherical particle shapes with good flowability. Thirdly, oxide or nitride powders can be generated directly from the molten metal by the usage of hot reactive gases or gas components for atomization. This paper describes the special features of a 25 bar hot gas atomization technique with pre-heated gases up to 1200°C and discusses its potentials for the generation of powders in view of their suitability in thermal spray applications.
