Investigations on cold spray tungsten/tantalum coatings for plasma facing applications

Cold gas spraying for the production of thick tungsten (W) coatings has been investigated for use at plasma facing components in fusion devices. Since the brittle nature of W strongly impedes its deposition, a systematic study was performed using mixtures of tungsten and tantalum (Ta) powders. Where...
