  • Patent number: 6562471
    Abstract: The metal alloy based on aluminium and titanium includes an aluminium content between 80 and 90 atomic percent and a titanium content between 10 and 20 atomic percent. The alloy is microcrystalline and outside thermodynamic equilibrium, the alloy is thereby resistant to oxidation and corrosion and has at the same time remarkable adhesion to polymer materials. The metal alloy can be in the form of a reflecting coating of a thickness ranging between 0.01 and 3 &mgr;m, covered with a protective film of a polymer material. A mirror having specular reflectivity not less than about 65%, good resistance to corrosion and oxidation includes a substrate of a polymer material supporting the reflecting coating.
