Submission information for authors
During the phase of abstract submission the contributions may be amended with your personal login.

Oral & Poster Contributions

Abstracts are invited for oral or poster presentations during the congress. Original contributions on advancements in the thermal spray technology including all processes such as flame spray and atmospheric plasma spraying, and more kinetic pro­cesses like cold gas spraying (CGS), high velocity oxygen and air fuel spraying (HVOF, HVAF, aerosol deposition), and suspensions and solutions thermal spraying (SPS, SPPS) are welcome. As the conference is a forum for intense exchange between scientists, contributions should give in-depth analyses of spray processes. Contributions that use diagnostic tools and conventional and advanced analytical methods to study the microstructure, optics, mechanics, physics, chemistry, and other properties of sprayed coatings are also expected. Additionally, contributions related to the application of thermally sprayed coatings for example in energy conversion systems are welcome.


The presented papers can be published in a professio­nal journal such as Surface and Coatings Technology (Elsevier).
