Plasma spraying is particularly suitable for materials with a high melting point such as ceramic materials.

In a plasma spray gun a plasma gas is ionized between an anode and a cathode. The plasma reaches temperatures between 15,000 and 20,000°C. A coating powder is injected into the plasma jet by a carrier gas, where it melts before depositing on the substrate, the object requiring the coating. The powder particles fuse together on the substrate forming a protective coating.
Because of the high temperature it is possible to spray virtually all existing materials and alloys. Plasma spraying is particularly suitable for materials with a high melting point such as ceramic materials.
Our 'standard' TOPCOAT is our earliest developed coating and is applied since 1987.
Learn more >This coating is similar to TOPCOAT ceramics, however the plasa sprayed nickel-chrome based adhesive layer is replaced by an HVOF sprayed nickel based superalloy (TOPCOAT 177).
Learn more >This ceramic coating is mainly used where a very high degree of chemical resistance against strong acids or bases is required. The coating is tribologically similar to the standard TOPCOAT. The colour is dark grey/green.
