WIRE-ARC SPRAYING OF A ZINC-NICKEL COATING

摘要

A zinc-nickel substrate is applied to a component by using a zinc-nickel wire formed with between about 8 to 20 percent nickel and between about 80 to 90 percent zinc. This formed zinc-nickel wire is held in a two wire electric arc spray system to spray the zinc-nickel substrate on the component, such as an aircraft part, while operating the two wire electric arc spray system within a specific range of operating parameters.
