ABSTRACT:
A molten metal gas-atomizing spray-depositing apparatus has an atomizer which employs a pressurized gas flow for atomizing a stream of molten metal into a spray pattern of semi-solid metal particles and producing a flow of the particles along with the gas flow in a generally downward direction. The apparatus also has a substrate disposed below the atomizer for impingement on the substrate of the gas flow at a steady state temperature resulting from heat transfer by the metal particles to the gas flow and for receiving a deposit of the particles in the spray pattern to form a product thereon. The substrate is composed of a material having a thermal conductivity primarily correlated with the steady state temperature of the gas flow so as to limit heat transfer from the deposit to the substrate and provide a sufficient fraction of liquid in the initial deposit to feed the interstices between the particles and provide an interface for subsequent deposits, resulting in a reduction of porosity and improvements of flatness of the deposit.
