METHOD OF DEPOSITING MATERIALS

摘要

A coherent material is formed on a substrate ( 10 ) by providing a precursor suspension ( 14 ) in which particulates are suspended in a carrier fluid, and directing the precursor suspension ( 14 ) at the substrate ( 10 ) from a first source ( 12 ). Generally contemporaneously with application of the deposited precursor suspension ( 14 ) to the surface, hot gases, e.g. hot gases produced by a flame ( 16 ), are directed at the substrate ( 10 ) from a remote second source ( 18 ) to fuse the particulates into the coherent material.
