Abstract
It was established that the use of the protective extension provides a 25 % increase in average velocity of spraying particles, improves heating of the particles, and decreases the required specific energy of the spraying process by 20 % due to increase in size of the high-temperature zone of the plasma jet. The content of oxides in coatings deposited by using the extension is 10 % lower, the content of pores in them is 4 times lower, and the coating to substrate adhesion strength is 20 % higher.
