Solution Precursor Plasma Spray (SPPS) technique is an emergent technique which offers significant performance advantages with various functional coatings like YSZ, ZnFe2O4, LSM, metal-doped ZnO, etc. Apart from the above capabilities, efforts towards development of an innovative hybrid approach through simultaneous deposition of powder and solution resulted in coatings with unique microstructures. Some illustrative examples of the large variety of coatings that can be realized through the hybrid route combining the conventional plasma spray and SPPS techniques are discussed. The attractive prospects offered by hybrid technique for spraying nanocomposite coatings are specifically highlighted through a case study. Successful development of hybrid coatings using a Mo-alloy powder and a suitable oxide-forming solution precursor has been shown to exhibit improved sliding wear performance. The relationship between the splats, the ensuing coating microstructure at varied processing conditions, and its tribological behaviour of the coatings is comprehensively discussed.
