2 Introduction: Surface engineering techniques generally consist of surface treatments, where the composition or physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of existing surface are altered. They are achieved by adding different material deposited as a thin or thick layers (coatings) to creat anew surface.

4 It should be noted that surface engineering may be used effectively to improve the surface properties, without changing the chemical composition of the bulk materials. Is frequently used to satisfy engineering requirements.

5 It provides an important means of increasing the life of engineering component by increasing oxidation, corrosion, wear and erosion resistance.

12 occur on the surface of a component, or are transferred via the surface into the component, surface protection has a considerable significance as regards modern materials technology.

13 The purpose of surface technology is to produce functionally effective surface. This implies matching the surface properties of a component to its particular operating stresses.

27 Characterization of Plasma Spayed Coatings 1- The high temperature enables almost all materials to be sprayed. 2- Deposits are of high density and strongly bonded to the substrate. 3- It is possible to control the coating thickness or build overlapping layers with different compositions to achieve the desired requirement.

28 4- Easy to control the cooling rate by heating or cooling the substrate during the process. 5- Cheap base materials can be used as substrate. 6- Expensive materials need only be used for the coating. 7- Little or no dilution occurs between the coating layer and the substrate. 8- Finishing may not be required

30 Applications of plasma spray coating 1- Wear protection against- abrasion, scuffing and fretting corrosion. 2- Corrosion protection against- oxidation, hot gas corrosion and immersion corrosion. 3- Thermal insulation ( thermal barrier). 4- Repairing parts by adding material on to worn lactations, or reconstituting apart which has been rejected due to faulty material or incorrect machining.

31 5- Surfaces with special properties such as: 1- Electrically insulating or conducting. 2- Self –lubricating coatings. 3- Active or passive surface coatings. 4- Decorative coatings. 5- Coatings which are highly absorptive or reflective to light. 6- Special applications, such as production of sensors.

32 Thermal barrier coatings The main advantages of using thermal barrier coatings are summarized below 1- Improving the creep and oxidation resistance by decreasing the temperature of the substrate. 2- Improving the thermal fatigue resistance of the thermal system by decreasing the thermal stress induced by strain.

33 3- Decreasing maintenance costs. 4-Improving engines components durability. 5- Enhancing reliability and performance of advanced heat engines components. 6- Improving the efficiency of the engine by reducing the volume of air required for cooling.

39 Laser Surface Sealing of Plasma Sprayed Coatings The main potential applications for laser sealing of coatings are: 1- Sealing porosity: To increase the life of coated components by eliminating the access of corrosive gases and molten salts to the underlying metallic substrate. 2- Modification microstructure : To improve the structural homogeneity of coatings.

40 3- Producing a smoother surface finish: To reduce the active surface for heat absorption. 4- Increasing surface hardness: Toenhance erosive and wear resistance of the surface. 5- Improving fracture strength:
