Matti Rajala

Matti Rajala is a Researcher affiliated with the Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences. His work focuses on materials science, aerosol technology, and environmental engineering. Key research areas include flame spraying processes, coating development for glass and materials, and radon progeny mitigation through air treatment systems. He has contributed to both experimental studies and patent innovations in thermal spray techniques.

Research activities span from 1982 to 1997, with notable outputs in journals like *Surface and Coatings Technology* and *Journal of Aerosol Science*. Collaborations include inventing equipment for material spraying and analyzing radon decay product control mechanisms.

• Key Contributions:
• Development of liquid flame spray (LBFS) technology for hot glass surfaces
• Invention of powder feeding systems for flame spraying
• Pioneering studies on electrofilters and air treatment devices for radon control

His presentations at conferences include discussions on aerosol science applications and thermal spray methodologies. No academic awards or grants are explicitly mentioned in the texts.
