The present disclosure provides a composite coating and a method for fabricating the composite coating. The composite coating comprises a polymer layer, a metal interlayer and an amorphous metal coating. The polymer layer is formed on a substrate and acts as a diffusion barrier layer, which is thick and dense enough to prevent the corrosive substances from penetrating into the substrate. The metal interlayer is formed between the polymer layer and the amorphous metal coating for improving the adhesion of the amorphous metal coating to the substrate.

An object of the present invention is to provide a new electroless plating film which can prevent the diffusion of molten solder to a metal material constituting a conductor. The present invention is an electroless Co—W plating film, wherein content of W is in an amount of 35 to 58 mass % and a thickness of the film is 0.05 μm or more.

A composite panel having a plurality of carbon plies, a perforated metallic foil comprising several apertures and being directly secured to the plurality of carbon plies, and a protective layer made from resin reinforced with fibers which is secured to the metallic foil. The perforated metallic foil is embedded in the protective layer through its apertures. A free surface of the protective layer forms a top side of the composite panel. The thickness of the protective layer between the top side of the composite panel and the perforated metallic foil is at least 15 micrometers and the perforated metallic foil has a thickness of not more than 30 micrometers. The plurality of apertures in the aggregate defines an open area of not more than 40% of the surface area and a maximum distance between two opposed points in a perimeter of an aperture is equal to or less than 3 mm.

Coated articles and methods for applying coatings are described. In some cases, the coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity. The articles may be coated, for example, using an electrodeposition process.

A manufacturing method of a home appliance including a hairline according to disclosed embodiment includes forming at least one plating layer on the base material, processing the transverse hairline on the upper surface of the plating layer by tilting the hairline processing wheel at a predetermined angle, and forming a coating layer on the hairline.

Provided is a heat sink that has a clad structure of a Cu—Mo composite material and a Cu material and has a low coefficient of thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity. A heat sink comprises three or more Cu layers and two or more Cu—Mo composite layers alternately stacked in a thickness direction so that two of the Cu layers are outermost layers on both sides, wherein each of the Cu—Mo composite layers has a thickness section microstructure in which flat Mo phase is dispersed in a Cu matrix. The heat sink has a low coefficient of thermal expansion and also has high thermal conductivity in the thickness direction because the thickness of each of the Cu layers which are the outermost layers is reduced, as compared with a heat sink of a three-layer clad structure having the same thickness and density.

The present invention provides a carrier-attached copper foil, wherein an ultrathin copper foil is not peeled from the carrier prior to the lamination to an insulating substrate, but can be peeled from the carrier after the lamination to the insulating substrate. A carrier-attached copper foil comprising a copper foil carrier, an intermediate layer laminated on the copper foil carrier, and an ultrathin copper layer laminated on the intermediate layer, wherein the intermediate foil is configured with a Ni layer in contact with an interface of the copper foil carrier and a Cr layer in contact with an interface of the ultrathin copper layer, said Ni layer containing 1,000-40,000 μg/dm.sup.2 of Ni and said Cr layer containing 10-100 μg/dm.sup.2 of Cr is provided.

A tin-plated copper alloy terminal material in which an Sn-based surface layer is formed on a surface of a base material that is made of copper or a copper alloy, and a Cu—Sn alloy layer and an Ni layer or an Ni alloy layer are sequentially formed between the Sn-based surface layer and the base material from the Sn-based surface layer side: the Cu—Sn alloy layer is a layer that is formed only of an intermetallic compound alloy which is obtained by substituting some of Cu in Cu.sub.6Sn.sub.5 alloy with Ni; and parts of the Cu—Sn alloy layer are exposed from the Sn-based surface layer, thereby forming a plurality of exposed portions; an average thickness of the Sn-based surface layer is from 0.2 μm to 0.6 μm (inclusive); and an area rate of the exposed portions of the Cu—Sn alloy layer relative to a surface area of is 1% to 40% (inclusive).

A metallic alloy, more particularly, a high-entropy alloy with a composite structure exhibits high strength and good ductility, and is used as a component material in electromagnetic, chemical, shipbuilding, machinery, and other applications, and in extreme environments, and the like.
