METHOD FOR HOT SHAPING A WORKPIECE AND AGENT FOR REDUCING THE HEAT EMISSION

摘要

A process for hot shaping a workpiece of metal or an intermetallic compound at a temperature of higher than about 1000°C. The method comprises at least partially coating the surface of the workpiece with a coating agent that comprises an oxide phase and an additive and/or an adhesive before processing the workpiece into a formed body or a rolling product. A coating agent for reducing the heat emission from the workpiece comprises a predominant amount of an oxide phase.
