Cross section of a thermal barrier coating. Treibacher offers ceramic suspensions for thermal spraying. NEXT GENERATION CERAMIC SUSPENSIONS Suspension sprayed coatings create a performance advantage. SPONSORED CONTENT For more information, contact: Treibacher Industrie AG, Austria P: +43 4262 505-0 / F: +43 4262 2005 thermalspray@treibacher.com www.treibacher.com Treibacher Industrie AG is headquartered in Althofen, Austria and is more traditionally known for its ferro alloy, hard metal, and rare earth products. However, over the last decade, the company has been building its position as a leading developer and producer of next generation thermal spray materials. Treibacher was a first mover in the development and commercialization of ceramic suspensions for suspension spraying. AuerCoat suspensions are available in a variety of different solvents with solid contents from 20 to more than 70 wt.%. They are manufactured in Austria with seamless scale-up capa- bilities from lab to full production. Some products can be manufactured according to AS9100 if required. Suspension spraying has the capability to generate a range of coating microstructures that create value for a wide range of applications. For example, the technology is used to obtain feather-like thermal barrier coatings that show excellent thermal strain tolerance. Compared to electron-beam physical vapor deposition, it is a cost effective alternative and opens up these coating structures to much larger components, which brings great advantages to aero and industrial gas turbines. Suspension spraying can also create highly dense coatings that offer improved corrosion resistance dur- ing the plasma etch process for the semiconductor industry and superior wear resistance for print and paper appli- cations. Furthermore, these high solid content suspensions combinedwithmod- ern spray equipment make suspension spraying even more economically viable. To ensure a complete market offering, Treibacher also has a Thermal Spray Center, equipped to spray both suspensions and spray powders and a comprehensive application-testing lab. This gives customers a significant competitive edge. The Thermal Spray Center is available for joint development projects with customers and hosts workshops on suspension spraying. Contact Treibacher to see how suspension sprayed coatings can create a performance advantage for you. State-of-the-art Thermal Spray Center in Althofen, Austria.
