Investigation of the Effect of Oxides on the Critical Impact Velocity during the Cold Spray Process of High Purity Aluminum Powder

The objective of the thesis is to understand the particle/substrate interaction of micron-sized High Purity (HP) aluminum (Al) powder particles with varying surface oxide/hydroxide layers, during single particle impact and determine the critical impact velocity (CIV). Advancements in analytical tech...
