Abstract

Gas dynamic cold spraying is a solid state powder spraying method with several different properties such as corrosion resistance, low oxidation, high strength, high hardness, high rate of coating deposition and allowing production of coatings from a broad range of materials. This review paper aims to provide an overview of the cold spray processes, coating materials, bonding mechanism and their development in trending applications. In particular, the revolutionary applications of gas dynamic cold spray in distinct sector such as energy sector, nuclear power plant, 3D printing, biomedical, wear and dimensional restoration, antimicrobial, electrical, catalysis and corrosion protection are discussed. The current state of coating material including high melting point metal and alloy and low melting point metal and alloy (tin, aluminum, zinc, copper) are presented. In addition, the comparison of gas dynamic cold spray with distinct thermal spray coating is briefly explained as a benchmark for future research and development.
