DUCTILE & METAL POWDER - SILICATE COATING FOR BASE METALS

摘要

A process of slurry coating particularly adapted to coatings less than one mil thick wherein a basis metal is coated with particles of a second metal dispersed in a liquid containing alkali-stabilized silica sol as the predominate film forming ingredient. The coated basis metal is dried; the coating is sintered thereon and then is worked. Provided that the silica to metal ratio is within a special range, residual silica in the coating metal does not interfere with working.
