Abstract

Submicro-sized anatase TiO2 powder was used to prepare light scattering layers by vacuum cold spraying at room temperature. The microstructure of the TiO2 coatings was characterized to be correlated with optical property and adhesion/cohesion of the coatings. Results show that the light-reflecting ability of the coatings decreased with the increase of accelerating gas flow rate from 3.5 to 7.5 L/min and increased with the increase of coating thickness from 2 to 10 μm. Both the cohesion and adhesion of the coatings increased with the increase of the accelerating gas flow rate, due to the improvement of the particle-particle contact and the particle-substrate contact by the high velocity impact resulting from the increased powder particle velocity.
