Degradation of the Layer Applied by Cold Kinetic Deposition

During the described experiment, a sample with a copper coating was formed on an aluminum substrate by cold spray. Subsequently, this sample was split for corrosion tests, where the split samples were exposed to a corrosive environment for different exposure times. The extent of corrosion degradation of the samples was evaluated by acoustic emission and metallographic analysis for corrosion-loaded samples for 100, 200 and 300 hours.
