| In plasma spraying the substance is heated until it is ionized and then quickly deposited on a suitable surface and cooled. Additionally, NanoDynamics has developed transparent IR windows using nanocrystalline yttria for missile applications, and a plasma spraying technique to synthesize proprietary ceramics for use in the production of lightweight, durable combat armor.
