Coating film and coating-film forming method

摘要

To form a coating film having an excellent wear-resistant property in a temperature range from low temperature to high temperature a coating-film forming method includes a metal-powder producing step of producing a metal powder containing an element exhibiting a lubricating property when oxidized; an oxidizing step of oxidizing the metal powder so that an amount of oxygen contained in the metal powder is within 6 weight % to 14 weight %; and a coating-film forming step of forming a coating film on a material subject to a treatment, the coating film having such a composition that an area where an oxygen content is 3 weight % or less and an area where an oxygen content is 8 weight % or more are distributed in a unit area of the coating film when the metal powder is in a melted state or a semi-melted state, and an oxygen content of the entire coating film after the metal powder is melted or semi-melted being within 5 weight % to 9 weight %.
