MIL-DTL-32495 (W/ INTERIM AMENDMENT-1), DETAIL SPECIFICATION: ALUMINUM-BASED POWDERS FOR COLD SPRAY DEPOSITION (26-SEP-2014) [USED IN LIEU OF MIL-DTL-32495]

MIL-DTL-32495 (W/ INTERIM AMENDMENT-1), DETAIL SPECIFICATION: ALUMINUM-BASED POWDERS FOR COLD SPRAY DEPOSITION (26-SEP-2014) [USED IN LIEU OF MIL-DTL-32495]., This specification is approved for interim use by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory, (Army- MR). Other activities in the Department of Defense may use this interim amendment or may continue using MIL-DTL-32495. This specification covers requirements intended for use in the procurement of aluminum and aluminum-based alloy powders that will be used to produce deposits utilizing a cold spray materials deposition process for the purpose of parts repair, coatings, or fabrication of freestanding structures. Cold spray is a process whereby metal powder particles are utilized to form a deposit by means of ballistic impingement upon a substrate in order to produce coatings or free-standing structures. This cold spray process is explained in the manufacturing process standard MIL-STD-3021, \"Materials Deposition, Cold Spray\".
