The present invention relates to an iron-based alloy that is able to provide a coating on a substrate, the coating having simultaneously high hardness and wear resistance. The iron-based alloy consists of 3.0-7.0% by weight Cr; 1.3-3.0% by weight C; 0.2-2.0% by weight B; 2.0-10.0% by weight V; optionally 1.5% by weight or less Si; optionally 1.0% by weight or less Mn, optionally 2.0% by weight or less Mo; optionally 1.5% by weight or less Ni; the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. The present invention further relates to an article comprising a substrate and coating formed thereon, the coating being formed from the alloy, and to a method for forming a coated article. The method preferably employs HVOF, laser cladding or plasma cladding.

A plating steel sheet for hot press forming includes: a base steel sheet; an Al—Zn-based plating layer formed on at least one surface of the base steel sheet; and an Fe—Al-based surface alloy layer formed between the base steel sheet and the Al—Zn-based plating layer, wherein the Al—Zn-based plating layer can include 10-30 wt % of Zn, 1 wt % or less of Fe, and the balance of Al and impurities.

An assembly of an aluminum-based part and a press hardened steel part provided with an alloyed coating including in weight percent, 0.1 to 15.0% silicon, 15.0 to 70% of iron, 0.1 to 20.0% of zinc, 0.1 to 4.0% of magnesium, the balance being aluminum, on at least one of the surfaces thereof placed so as to be in contact with the aluminum-based part.

A pre-coated steel substrate wherein the coating including at least one titanate and at least one nanoparticle; a method for the manufacture of an assembly; a method for the manufacture of a coated steel substrate and a coated substrate substrate. It is particularly well suited for construction, shipbuilding and offshore industries.

A cold- or hot-rolled steel strip with a metallic coating, the steel strip having iron as the main constituent and, in addition to carbon, an Mn content of 8.1 to 25.0 wt. % and optionally one or more of the alloying elements Al, Si, Cr, B, Ti, V, Nb and/or Mo. The uncoated steel strip is first cleaned, a layer of pure iron is applied to the cleaned surface, an oxygen-containing, iron-based layer containing more than five mass percent of oxygen is applied to the layer of pure iron. The steel strip is then annealed and is reduction-treated in a reducing furnace atmosphere during the annealing treatment to obtain a surface consisting mainly of metallic iron. The steel strip is then hot-dip coated with the metallic coating. This creates uniform and reproducible bonding conditions for the coating on the steel strip surface.

A hot-stamped part according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises, as a base layer, a steel comprising: 0.28-0.38 wt % of carbon (C); 0.1-0.4 wt % of silicon (Si); 1.2-2.0 wt % of manganese (Mn); from greater than 0 to 0.020 wt % of phosphorus (P); from greater than 0 to 0.003 wt % of sulfur (S); 0.1-0.5 wt % of chromium (Cr); 0.0015-0.0040 wt % of boron (B); 0.025-0.05 wt % of titanium (Ti); and the remainder of iron (Fe) and inevitable impurities, wherein the microstructure of the base layer is full martensite.
