COATED ARTICLES COMPRISING A METAL LAYER

摘要

Coated articles and methods for applying coatings including a layer comprising Rh and/or Ru are described. In some cases, the coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity. The articles may be coated, for example, using an electrodeposition process. The articles may comprise a base material, a barrier layer formed on the base material, a metal layer formed on the barrier layer, and a layer comprising Rh and/or Ru formed on the metal layer and having a thickness between about 1 microinch and about 5 microinches.
