The present invention concerns the field of vehicle technology and industrial-plant technology and relates to a brake disc provided with protection from wear and corrosion and to a method for production thereof. The known solutions have the disadvantage that the coating for providing protection from corrosion and wear is applied to the frictional surfaces of the brake disc and is rubbed off straight away during the first braking operations. The present invention addresses the problem of providing a brake disc that has improved and durable protection from corrosion and wear. The significantly improved properties of the brake disc in terms of protection from corrosion and wear are achieved according to the invention by at least the region of the frictional surfaces (2) having an AlSi-based diffusion layer (3), which has a layer thickness of 0.1 mm to 0.6 mm and is formed in the process of interaction with the steel or grey cast iron of the metal main body (1). The brake disc according to the invention can be used for example in vehicles or as a braking system for industrial brakes or in wind turbines.

A process of forming an erosion, oxidation, and wear resistant shot chamber, either a gooseneck or a shot sleeve, is provided. The process utilizes a self-healing erosive wear resistant coating on a liner of refractory metal to serve as the working surfaces of a shot chamber. Such a shot chamber is expected to have an improved service life for die casting of corrosive metals and alloys, including hot chamber die casting of aluminum alloys. An improved hot dipping process using stirring in the molten metal bath is also disclosed.

An aluminized metallic scaffold for high temperature applications comprises a porous non-refractory alloy structure including a network of interconnected pores extending therethrough. The porous non-refractory alloy structure comprises a transition metal phase and an aluminide phase, and portions of the porous non-refractory alloy structure between interconnected pores have a thickness no greater than about 500 nm. A method of making an aluminized metallic scaffold for high-temperature applications comprises introducing aluminum into a surface of a porous metallic structure at an elevated temperature. The porous metallic structure comprises a transition metal and has a network of interconnected pores extending therethrough, where portions of the porous metallic structure between interconnected pores have a thickness no greater than about 500 nm. As the aluminum is introduced into the surface and diffusion occurs, an aluminide phase is formed, resulting in a porous non-refractory alloy structure comprising the aluminide phase and a transition metal phase.

A process for coating a part by chemical vapor diffusion is provided and includes placing a powder mixture in a chamber, immersing the part partially in the powder mixture, and applying a heat treatment to the part. The powder mixture includes a first component and a second component forming a gaseous compound during the heat treatment so as to allow deposition of the second component on the part. The part includes a metal refractory allow and the second component forms a solid diffusion alloy by solid diffusion with a metal species of the refractory metal alloy to generate a coating. The solid diffusion allow generates a passivating oxide layer when subjected to oxidizing conditions.

The invention provides a molten Al—Si alloy corrosion resistant composite coating and a preparation method and application thereof. The composite coating layer comprises an aluminized layer and a TiO.sub.2 film layer from a surface of a substrate to the outside in sequence. The preparation method of the coating layer comprises the following steps: (step S1) making a surface treatment to an Fe-based alloy, and then aluminizing with a solid powder penetrant; (step S2) sand-blasting the aluminized Fe-based alloy; (step S3) washing and drying the Fe-based alloy which has been sand-blasted; and (step S4) depositing the TiO.sub.2 film layer on a surface of the dried aluminized Fe-based alloy by using an atom layer vapor deposition. The application of the molten Al—Si alloy corrosion resistant composite coating is used for a solar thermal power generation heat exchange tube.

A preparation method of a zirconium-titanium-based alloy embedded aluminized layer includes putting a zirconium-titanium-based alloy and an aluminiferous penetrant into a mould from bottom to top in a sequence of a first penetrant layer, a first zirconium-titanium-based alloy, a second penetrant layer, a second zirconium-titanium-based alloy and a third penetrant layer, and compacting to obtain a mixed sample; sequentially covering a surface of a mixed sample with activated carbon powder and alkali metal halide, and then carrying out heating and cooling treatments to obtain a zirconium-titanium-based alloy embedded aluminized layer. The preparation method does not need to adopt a special heating furnace or carry out heat treatment under a vacuum condition in an actual application, which simplifies operation process and condition and is suitable for large-scale production and application due to few technical difficulties and low equipment investment cost.
