Thermal spray coating applications used to be restricted to highly specialized areas such as military facilities, aviation, and power plants. However, the technology has seen a wider range of application as the recent industrial growth expanded the need for materials with special properties such as abrasion-resistant, thermal-resistant, corrosion-resistant, rust-resistant, insulated, or conductive materials.
