In order to ensure adherence of the arc sprayed layer, on the metal substrate, a few specific operations must be performed: initial cleaning, degreasing, roughening, final cleaning and degreasing. At the moment, there are standards which refer to the degree of preparation for processing metal surfaces by spraying. Performing metallic surface preparation operations require compliance with specific health and safety measures and environment protection.
Arc spraying (AS) is a thermal spraying method. The spraying distance represents one of the main technological parameters. EDAX analysis, performed on the sprayed layers (SDA and SDS), have shown differences between the initial chemical composition of the filler material and of the obtained layers. The quantitative variations determined for Ni, Fe and Cr can be explained by: the volatilization process of the chemical elements from the electric arc area; losses increase with increasing the length of the spraying jet.
This paper presents an analytical approach to the evaluation concept of professional risk specific to activities of controlled demolition with civil use explosives of industrial/civil objectives, ensuring the appropriate level of safety to the effects generated by performing blasting to these types of constructions. The scientific research highlighted in this article was performed within the Project PN 7:45 1:28 in the frame of The National Programme for Research and Development CORE/2014. The main purpose of evaluating occupational risk is to prevent the likelihood of injuries and occupational diseases. When there is no any possibility to eliminate the risks, it is mandatory to reduce it up to the level of residual risks, which must be adequately controlled.
The paper aims to determine, through experiments, the necessary force for detaching the deposited layer (SD) from the support layer (SB). The thermal sprayed coating was formed by successive deposition of two sub-layers, one for anchorage and the second for corrosion resistance. Shear adhesion strength tests were performed on a specialized stand, while force (Fad) and displacement (x) values were recorded with a data acquisition system. The variation curves, Fad = f (x), outline the evolution of the detachment process of the sprayed layer and the two main components of the deformation process: slip and breakage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
