Advancing Corrosion Protection: Combustion Spraying of Aluminum onto Steel

This outreach initiative by the State University of New York at Stony Brook introduces high school students to materials engineering and thermal spray technology. Through engaging classroom and hands-on demonstrations, students like Jason Trelewicz, Swarnima Deshpande, and David Otterson have successfully worked with the Center to bolster K-12 educational efforts. Research internships for students, including Melissa Hoyos and others, provide invaluable experience in fundamental research and skill development in an industrial laboratory setting. Students gain practical knowledge using combustion spray technology to enhance corrosion protection.

  1. Combustion Spraying of Aluminum onto Steel for Corrosion ProtectionLysa Russo, State University of New York at Stony Brook, DMR-0080021 Outreach: Introducing high school students to materials engineering and thermal spray technology through classroom and hands-on demonstrations has been a very successful component of our Center’s outreach activities. Education: Undergraduate Jason Trelewicz and graduate students Swarnima Deshpande and David Otterson have worked with the Center as part of its K-12 Educational Outreach. Research internships are also offered to high school students (Melissa Hoyos, Gabrielle Sirow, Dan Lang, John Iraci, Jason Mencher and Theodore Feldman) allowing them to develop fundamental research and writing skills while working in an industrial laboratory. Pictured at right is a high school student using a combustion spray torch to deposit aluminum onto steel for corrosion protection.
