| Plasma
Spray of Molybdenum Powder:

Molybdenum powder can be applied to hard metallic
surfaces through the application of a thermal spray or plasma spray
process. The plasma spray process involves
the spraying of a heat softened or molten material onto a surface to
provide a coating. Molybdenum powder is injected into a very high
temperature plasma flame where it is quickly heated and accelerated at
high velocity. The heated material then impacts the substrate surface
and quickly cools, forming a coating. Molybdenum powder is often used in
plasma spray applications to improve the heat and wear resistance of the
substrate material.
