Project: THERMAlly sprayed and LASER sintered ceramic coatings to protect steel structures

Acronym THERMALASER (Reference Number: 115424)
Duration 01/11/2021 - 01/05/2024
Project Topic The main objective of the project is to develop and validate an overall process (considering environmental impact and health and safety aspects) based on an eco-friendly ceramic powder to be applied by a combination of two technologies, Thermal Spraying (TS) for the coating deposition and Laser Sintering (LS) for coating sintering to achieve both protective and functional (anticorrosion and antifouling) coatings over metallic structures, even over low-performance but cheaper structural steels.
