  • Sheet with aluminum coating that is resistant to cracking
    Patent number: 6395407
    Abstract: A metallic sheet with an aluminum coating, the coating having an internal layer of iron/aluminum/silicon alloys, and an external layer, thicker, of an aluminum-based phase and secondarily of phases in the form of needles or elongated lamellae. The projection of the length of all needles or lamellae in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the external layer is less than the thickness of this layer. This structure, which is obtained by a thermal treatment of the external layer at a temperature of 570-660° C., notably for less than 15 sec, considerably decreases the risks of cracking.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 4, 2001
    Date of Patent: May 28, 2002
    Assignee: Sollac
    Inventors: Didier Mareuse, Thérèse Six, Pierre Jean Krauth
