An aluminum-based coating of a flat steel product is applied in a hot-dipping method and comprises a mass percentage of silicon within a given range. The coating for a flat steel product, in particular for press mold hardening components, offers a shortened required minimum oven dwell time and a sufficiently large processing window when heating in an oven. This is achieved in that the surface of the coating has a degree of absorption for thermal radiation ranging between 0.35 and 0.95 prior to an annealing treatment, where the degree of absorption relates to an oven temperature ranging from 880 to 950° C. during the austenitizing annealing treatment. The invention additionally relates to an improved method for producing a flat steel product with an aluminum-based coating, to an inexpensive method for producing press-hardened components from such flat steel products, and to a press-hardened component made of such flat steel products.

A calcium-magnesium-alumino-silicate (CMAS)-reactive thermal barrier coating includes a ceramic coating and a CMAS-reactive overlay coating, wherein the CMAS-reactive overlay coating conforms to a surface of the ceramic coating and comprises a compound that forms a stable high melting point crystalline precipitate when reacted with molten CMAS at a rate that is competitive with CMAS infiltration kinetics into the thermal barrier coating. The ceramic coating phase is stable with the CMAS-reactive overlay coating.

The present invention relates to a hot stamped body comprising a steel sheet and a plating layer formed on at least one surface of the steel sheet, wherein the plating layer is comprised of a ZnO region present on a surface side of the plating layer and having an oxygen concentration of 10 mass % or more and an Ni—Fe—Zn alloy region present on a steel sheet side of the plating layer and having an oxygen concentration of less than 10 mass %, and an average concentration of a total of Fe, Mn and Si in the ZnO region is 5 mass % or more and 30 mass % or less.

A coated substrate has a substrate and a coating system having one or more ceramic layers. At least a first layer of one of the one or more ceramic layers is a columnar layer having as-deposited columns and intercolumn gaps. The intercolumn gaps have a mean width at least one of: at least 4.0 micrometers; and at least 1.5% of a thickness of said first layer.

A superalloy workpiece includes a superalloy substrate and an interface layer (IF-1) of essentially the same superalloy composition directly on a surface of the superalloy substrate. A transition layer (TL) of essentially the same superalloy and superalloy oxides or a different metal composition and different metal oxides is on the interface layer (IF-1). The oxygen content of the transition layer increases from the interface layer (IF-1) towards a barrier layer (IF-2) of super alloy oxides or of different metal oxides.

A method for forming a metal film includes forming an oxide layer on a to-be-treated surface of a to-be-treated object by bringing the to-be-treated surface into contact with a reaction solution containing fluorine and an oxide precursor, removing fluorine in the oxide layer, supporting a catalyst on the oxide layer by bringing the oxide layer into contact with a catalyst solution, and depositing a metal film on the oxide layer by bringing the oxide layer into contact with an electroless plating liquid.

According to an embodiment, a method for manufacturing a joined metal member includes: disposing a first metal member inside a mold of an injection molding apparatus, the first metal member being made of a first metal material, unevenness being formed over a surface of the first metal member, and an oxide film being formed so as to cover the unevenness; and injecting a second metal material into the mold, and thereby molding a second metal member and joining the second metal member to the first metal member, the second metal material being, when it is injected into the mold, in a semi-molten state, or in a molten state in which a difference between a temperature of the second metal material and a liquidus temperature thereof is smaller than or equal to 30° C.
