“…In the process, spray particles are heated below their melting temperature while being accelerated to a velocity of typically 700-850 m s −1 , forming a coating upon impact on a substrate. The oxidation and thermal deterioration of sprayed materials are significantly reduced, resulting in highimpact coatings with extremely low oxide content, which may yield coatings with lower porosity and higher bonding strength to the substrates [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Considering these advantages, AC-HVAF spraying is considered the preeminent process for the deposition of Fe-based AMCs exhibiting superior wear and corrosion resistances compared with HVOF.…”
