Abstract: A high-damping, corrosion resistant and substantially non-magnetic material having high damping properties has been developed for use in dynamic applications, specifically, a disk drive suspension arm and load beam. A disk drive assembly includes a disk having a readable and writeable surface, a motor operable for rotating the disk, and an actuator assembly that includes a transducer mounted on a load beam. The actuator assembly is operable for positioning the transducer in transducing relationship with the surface of the disk. When the disk spins, shear forces create turbulence in the fluidic medium adjacent to the surface of the disk. The turbulence exerts unbalanced and variable forces on the load beam, inducing vibrational motion therein. If the vibrational energy stored in the load beam is not quickly damped, the surface of the disk, load beam or transducer can be damaged. The present invention discloses alloy compositions of the form (14-21)Mn, (10-13)Cr, (0-6)Si, (4-10)Ni, (0-6)Co, and (0-0.

Abstract: A corrosion-resistant coated copper metal coated with an alloy of tin wherein the tin content constitutes a majority of the alloy. The tin alloy may also include one or more metal additives to improve the coating process and/or to alter the properties of the tin alloy. A metal layer may be applied to the surface of the copper metal prior to applying the tin alloy. The copper material may be pre-treated prior to coating to remove surface oxides. The coating of the tin alloy involves heat to thereby form a heat created intermetallic layer. The coated copper metal can be subsequently treated with a passivation solution to remove the coated tin alloy and expose the intermetallic layer. The intermetallic layer includes copper and tin and exhibits excellent corrosion resistant properties.

Abstract: A corrosion-resistant metal strip and method for making the same which is essentially lead free and is not highly reflective. The coating on the metal strip is a two-phase metallic coating comprised of tin and zinc and a very low weight percentage of lead. The coating alloy may also include antimony, bismuth and copper to improve the coating process and/or improve the properties of the tin and zinc coating. A metal layer may also applied to the surface of the metal strip prior to applying the metallic alloy coating.

Abstract: Various metal coatings have been used for many years to inhibit oxidation of metals exposed to the natural elements of the atmosphere over a period of time. Terne alloy coatings which normally contain about 20% tin and about 80% lead are some of the most popular metal coating treatments to resist corrosion. The special formulation of the present invention reformulates the terne coating to constitute a tin and lead based coating where tin constitutes at least 90% of the terne and lead amounts to less than 0.1% and preferably less than 0.05% of the terne. The low lead terne coating may also include antimony and bismuth to provide strength and hardness to the low lead terne formulation having corrosion resistive qualities similar to that of standard terne coating formulations.

Abstract: A corrosion-resistant colored architectural material which is essentially lead free and is not highly reflective. The coating on the material is a two-phase metallic coating comprised of a large weight percentage of zinc and a relatively large weight percentage of tin. The tin-zinc coating may also include nickel. The tin-zinc composition provides for both a highly corrosive-resistant coating which protects the surface of the architectural material from oxidation and also produces a gray, earth tone colored which is not highly reflective.
