Prior to the coating formations, the temperature and velocity of in-flight titanium powder particles were numerically calculated. Significant oxidation occurred in the WS process using higher gas temperature conditions with low nitrogen flow rate, which is mixed to the flame jet of a high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spray gun in order to control the temperature of the propellant gas. Oxidation, however, decreased strikingly as the nitrogen flow rate increased. In the CS process using nitrogen or helium as a propellant gas, little oxidation was observed. Even when scanning electron microscopy or an x-ray diffraction method did not detect oxides in the coating layers produced by WS using a high nitrogen flow rate or by CS using helium, the inert gas fusion method revealed minor increases of oxygen content from 0.01 to 0.2 wt.%. Most of the cross-sections of the coating layers prepared by conventional mechanical polishing looked dense. However, the crosssections prepared by an ion-milling method revealed the actual microstructures containing small pores and unbounded interfaces between deposited particles.}, pages = {550--560}, title = {Comparison of Oxidation and Microstructure of Warm-Sprayed and Cold-Sprayed Titanium Coatings}, volume = {21}, year = {2012}, yomi = {クロダ, セイジ and ワタナベ, マコト and フカヌマ, ヒロタカ and カタノダ, ヒロシ} }
