Reactive Particles for Cold Spray Coatings
This invention demonstrates solid or semi-solid microparticles that undergo crosslinking and polymerization upon contacting a substrate to form a coating. The microparticles are maintained in an un-reacted state until delivered using cold spray processes where they are propelled using a gas stream at a pre-determined temperature and velocity. The process does not require volatile organic solvents or aqueous vehicles, nor plural component spray or two component formulations with limited shelf life but still deliver uniform coating.
