Abstract
A solution containing dissolved tungsten and dissolved aluminum is spray dried to recover a tungsten-and-aluminum containing powder. The powder is then fired to eliminate hydrated water and volatiles and to convert the aluminum compound into alumina. The powder is next fired at a higher temperature in a reducing atmosphere to reduce the tungsten compound to elemental tungsten. A coating suspension containing the tungsten-alumina powder is then prepared and electrophoretically deposited on cathode heaters.
