  • Patent number: 9845526
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a slip for producing an aluminum diffusion layer which comprises an Al-containing powder and an Si-containing powder and a binder, the slurry further comprising an Al-containing powder the powder particles of which are coated with Si. The invention further relates to a process for producing an aluminum diffusion layer, comprising the following steps: providing a slurry according to any one of the preceding claims, applying the slurry to a component surface on which the aluminum diffusion layer is to be created, drying and/or curing by way of a heat treatment at a first temperature, and diffusion annealing at a second temperature.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9822258
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a coating material for the production of an anti-corrosion and/or adhesion promoter layer, which material comprises metal powder and a phosphate-ion-containing solution as the binder, the metal powder being at least partially coated with Si or Si alloys or the binder consisting of phosphoric acid and metal phosphates and being substantially free of chromates. The invention further relates to a method for producing an anti-corrosion and/or adhesion promoter layer, comprising the following steps: Providing a coating material, such as indicated above, applying the coating material to a component surface on which the anti-corrosion and/or adhesion promoter layer is to be created, and drying and/or hardening by way of a heat treatment at a first temperature.
