19 Ultrasonic acoustic cavitation in liquid basics of coating The ultrasonic generator creates an alternating electrical field whose energy is transformed into mechanical energy by piezoelectric transducers and transmitted into the solution. This creates pressure changes in the liquid: Bubble jet collapsing speed 200m/s

20 Particles present in vicinity of the collapsing bubble jet are naturally speed up to the coated surface direction, which result in uniform coverage of the surface with nanoparticles layer of nanometric thickness.
