Abstract
Abstract In this study, a TiO2 (anatase) nanopowder suspension was processed by high velocity suspension flame spraying (HVSFS). The resulting coatings were characterized and compared to conventional HVOF and atmospheric plasma sprayed layers. It is shown that the HVSFS operating parameters can be adjusted to achieve dense titania with a near nanostructure and homogeneous distribution of anatase and rutile phases. These coatings have lower pore interconnectivity and higher wear resistance than the APS and HVOF layers. Alternatively, large unmelted agglomerates of anatase nanoparticles can be embedded in the coating, increasing the porosity and anatase content for enhanced photocatalytic efficiency.
