Abstract: A coated metallic substrate including at least a first coating of aluminum, such first coating having a thickness below 5 ?m and being directly topped by a second coating including from 0.5 to 5.9% by weight of magnesium, the balance being zinc.

Abstract: A vacuum deposition facility is provided for continuously depositing on a running substrate coatings formed from metal alloys including a main element and at least one additional element. The facility includes a vacuum deposition chamber and a substrate running through the chamber. The facility also includes a vapor jet coater, an evaporation crucible for feeding the vapor jet coater with a vapor having the main element and the at least one additional element, a recharging furnace for feeding the evaporation crucible with the main element in molten state and maintaining a constant level of liquid in the evaporation crucible, and a feeding unit being fed with the at least one additional element in solid state for feeding the evaporation crucible with the at least one additional element either in molten state, in solid state or partially in solid state. A process is also provided.

Abstract: A coated metallic substrate is provided, including, at least; one layer of oxides, such layer being directly topped by an intermediate coating layer comprising Fe, Ni, Cr and Ti wherein the amount of Ti is above or equal to 5 wt. % and wherein the following equation is satisfied: 8 wt. %<Cr+Ti<40 wt. %, the balance being Fe and Ni, such intermediate coating layer being directly topped by a coating layer being an anticorrosion metallic coating.

Abstract: A coated metallic substrate including at least a first coating consisting of aluminum is provided. The first coating has a thickness between 1.0 and 4.5 ?m and is directly topped by a second coating based on zinc, such second coating having a thickness between 1.5 and 9.0 ?m. The thickness ratio of the first coating with respect to the second coating is between 0.2 and 1.2.
