Apparatus for the production of powders or spray deposits is provided in which a metal or metal alloy stream is broken up into atomized droplets by primary jets of atomizing gas. In order to remove further heat from the atomized droplets, secondary jets are positioned adjacent the primary jets for directing cooling fluid in the form of cryogenic liquified gas at the atomized droplets. The apparatus permits the formation of coarser powders, powders from alloys with a wide solidus/liquidus gap in a shorter atomizing chamber, or spray deposits with increased yield of deposited material. |
