Oxide powder for thermal spray refers to a type of powder material that is used in thermal spray processes. Thermal spray is a coating technique where a material in powder form is heated and propelled onto a substrate, forming a coating.

Oxide powders are commonly used in thermal spray applications due to their high melting points, excellent wear resistance, and thermal insulation properties. They can be used to create protective coatings on various surfaces, such as metals, ceramics, and plastics.
Some common types of oxide powders used in thermal spray include:
1. Aluminum oxide (Al2O3): This oxide powder is widely used for its high hardness, wear resistance, and thermal insulation properties. It is commonly used for coating applications in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics.
2. Zirconium oxide (ZrO2): Zirconium oxide powder is known for its high melting point and excellent thermal barrier properties. It is often used in thermal spray coatings for gas turbine engine components, where thermal insulation is critical.
3. Chromium oxide (Cr2O3): Chromium oxide powder is used for its high hardness, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance. It is commonly used in applications where high temperature and abrasive wear resistance are required.
4. Titanium oxide (TiO2): Titanium oxide powder is known for its high refractive index and excellent UV resistance. It is often used in thermal spray coatings for optical and decorative applications.
These oxide powders can be applied using various thermal spray techniques, such as flame spraying, plasma spraying, or high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spraying. The choice of oxide powder and thermal spray technique depends on the specific application requirements and desired coating properties.
It is reported that Wartsila signed a contract for the supply of three 27,500 CBM-class "Multigas" carriers built by Nantong Pacific Ocean Engineering Co., Ltd. in March. The related kits include integrated cargo handling, gas supply solutions, and dual fuel engines. As well as accessories such as propulsion systems.
The contract was related to the new ship series that the Danish shipowner Evergas ordered in the Pacific Ocean in January. The first kit supply contract was signed in April last year, and then the accessory contract for another three ships was signed.
Under the contract, Wartsila will supply two dual-fuel main engines "50DF", as well as two auxiliary machines "20DF", transmissions, adjustable pitch propellers and accessories such as the Cargo Handling System.
The relevant new shipbuilding will be delivered in 2015. Through the cooperation with Pacific Offshore, Wartsila's system supply and installation will be maintained until the launch stage.
According to statistics, at the beginning of this month, Pacific Offshore obtained the world's largest 27500CBM and LNG/ethylene "Multigas" transport ship orders from Evergas, including the company's orders for six identical ships.
