GFE Schmalkalden e.V. Thermal spraying<br />
Surface pre-treatment<br />
Pre treatment absolute necessary for a sufficient coating adhesion<br />
Removal <strong>of</strong> oils, lubricants, paints, oxides and scales<br />
Pre treatment methods:<br />
• Removal <strong>of</strong> coarse contamination: grinding, turning, …<br />
• Degreasing <strong>of</strong> the substrate: dissolvent bath, steam cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, …)<br />
• Blast cleaning for an increased surface roughness (important: removal <strong>of</strong> blasting material)<br />
Objective <strong>of</strong> pre-treatment: improvement <strong>of</strong> surface energy (surface activation)<br />
