Title: Tatsuya Kuno: Innovator in Thermal Spray Technology
Introduction
Tatsuya Kuno is a notable inventor based in Kiyosu, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of thermal spray technology, holding a total of 2 patents. His work focuses on developing advanced materials for thermal spray applications, which are crucial in various industrial processes.
Latest Patents
Kuno's latest patents include innovative formulations for thermal spray powders. One patent describes a thermal spray powder that contains a first element selected from tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo), a second element selected from cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), and iron (Fe), a third element selected from carbon (C) and boron (B), and a fourth element formed of silicon (Si). The composition specifies that the amount of the second element in the thermal spray powder is 40% by mole or less, with a mole ratio of the fourth element to the second element ranging from 0.002 to 0.03. The thermal spray powder exhibits a crystal phase containing Co, Ni, or Fe; W; and C or a crystal phase containing Co, Ni, or Fe; W or Mo; and B. The X-ray diffraction spectrum of the thermal spray powder shows that the peak intensity attributed to Co, Ni, or Fe is at most 0.1 times the largest peak intensity in the same spectrum.
Another patent focuses on a similar thermal spray powder formulation, which includes a first element selected from W and Mo, a second element selected from Co, Ni, and Fe, a third element selected from C and B, and a fourth element selected from aluminum (Al) and magnesium (Mg). In this formulation, the amount of the second element is 20% by mole or greater, and the mole ratio of the fourth element to the second element is between 0.05 and 0.5. This powder also demonstrates a crystal phase containing Co, Ni, or Fe; W; and C or a crystal phase containing Co, Ni, or Fe; W or Mo; and B, with similar X-ray diffraction characteristics.
