The invention relates to a method of forming an aluminosilicate zeolite layer on an aluminium-containing metallic substrate composed of metallic aluminium or an aluminium alloy which is introduced into an alkalized aqueous reaction dispersion in which silicon and optionally aluminium are present as network-forming elements, where, irrespective of whether or not aluminium is present in the aqueous reaction dispersion, the molar ratio between the aluminium in the aqueous reaction dispersion and the sum total of the network-forming elements present in the aqueous reaction dispersion is below 0.5, where, when aluminium is not present in the aqueous reaction solution, the deficiency molar ratio is 0, and the alkalized aqueous reaction dispersion containing the aluminium-containing metallic substrate is heated and aluminium is removed from the aluminium-containing metallic substrate for the aluminosilicate zeolite formation process and the layer of an aluminosilicate zeolite is formed on the aluminium-containing metallic substrate by in situ crystallizative application. In the course of this, an aluminium complexing agent with anchoring oxygen atoms is incorporated into the alkalized aqueous reaction dispersion. The invention further relates to the advantageous use of the method product in sorption-based fields of application.
