ABSTRACT:
Plasma spraying of particulate thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers onto the surfaces of composite and metallic structures. The present plasma spray process employs a conventional direct current electric arc plasma spray gun in which an inert plasma gas is introduced, caused to swirl, and discharges as a rotating plasma flame having an exceptionally high temperature, above about 14000.degree. K, into which the particulate liquid crystal polymer is discharged for melting and propulsion onto the target surface. The target surface preferably is preheated, and the molten particles deposit and cool to form a build up of the desired thickness. Cooling is regulated by post-heating the deposit to a temperature between about 200.degree. F. and 500.degree. F.
