| 20080220281 | Copper alloy plumbing hardware, such as valves and tube couplings, and the treatment method for reducing elution of lead - This invention relates to a plumbing device made of a copper alloy containing nickel salt, that includes a valve and a tube coupling having at least a liquid-contacting part washed with a cleaning fluid incorporating therein nitric acid and hydrochloric acid as an inhibitor under conditions of a temperature and a duration permitting effective removal of nickel salt, thereby performing nickel salt-removing treatment and causing the hydrochloric acid to form a coating film on the surface of the liquid-contacting part thereby effectively precluding elution of nickel salt from the surface of the liquid-contacting part in the presence of the coating film, wherein the nitric acid has a concentration c in a range of 0.5 wt %| 09-11-2008 | |
| 20080274371 | COMPOSITE SUBSTRATES FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTORS HAVING IMPROVED PROPERTIES - A composite substrate for superconductors and methods for making the same are described. The composite substrate of the present invention includes at least a core layer having and a sheath layer having a cube texture on at least a portion its surface. In certain embodiments, the core layer can include a nickel-tungsten-molybdenum alloy having about 2-10 atomic percent tungsten and 2-15 atomic percent molybdenum. In some embodiments, the sheath layer can include nickel or a nickel-tungsten alloy having about 0 to 6 atomic percent tungsten. Generally, the core layer is stronger than the sheath layer and an interdiffusion zone can exist between the core layer and the sheath layer. | 11-06-2008 |
| 20080280158 | Coated Sanitaryware Item - An object, in particular an item of sanitaryware, has a base body, a first layer that is optionally present on the base body and a ruthenium-containing layer above this first layer. This ruthenium-containing layer has been applied using a PVD process and preferably consists of a ruthenium-containing alloy. This alloy is in particular a nickel-Chromium-ruthenium alloy. The invention also comprises a corresponding production process and a PVD target made from a nickel-chromium-ruthenium alloy. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090317659 | HARD FILM-COATED MEMBER AND JIG FOR MOLDING - There are provided a hard film-coated member excellent in wear resistance and adhesion, and a jig for molding. The hard film-coated member includes: a base material including an iron base alloy containing Cr; a first film layer formed with a film thickness of 1 to 10 μm on the surface of the base material; and a second film layer formed with a film thickness of 2 to 10 μm on the surface of the first film layer. The first film layer includes Cr | 12-24-2009 |
| 20100255340 | PLAIN COPPER FOODWARE AND METAL ARTICLES WITH DURABLE AND TARNISH FREE MULTIPLAYER CERAMIC COATING AND METHOD OF MAKING - Soft and porous material is coated with a multilayer ceramic coating by physical vapor deposition. The coated material is suitable for use as foodware, particularly, a copper foodware article including a plain copper substrate, a base coating, and a ceramic coating. The base coating is deposited by sputtering and cathodic arc in combination, providing the good corrosion resistance and adhesion to the substrate. The ceramic coating includes a PVD nitride or carbonitride layer, providing a tarnish-free surface, good durability, and thermal stability. The coated copper foodware article has the same heat conductivity as pure copper, good corrosion resistance, high durability, excellent cooking, and ease of cleaning. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20110008646 | COATED ARTICLES AND METHODS - Coated articles and methods for applying coatings are described. In some cases, the coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity. The articles may be coated, for example, using an electrodeposition process. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20110195273 | BONDING STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME - A bonding structure and a method of fabricating the same are provided. A first substrate having a first bonding element and a second substrate having a second bonding element are provided, wherein at least one of the first bonding element and the second bonding element is formed with an alloy. A bonding process is performed to bond the first bonding element with the second bonding element, wherein a diffusion liner is generated at the exposed, non-bonded surface of the bonding structure. | 08-11-2011 |
| 20150010776 | COATING ADDITIVE - Various methods including applying a coating material with an additive to an article are disclosed. The coating material may be in a powder form before a thermal spraying used to apply the coating material. The coating material may comprise a chromium nitride, a chromium carbide, a chromium silicide, or a tungsten carbide. Additional materials may be added, e.g., a molybdenum alloy such as molybdenum-chromium. In one aspect, thermal spraying includes melting the coating material, propelling the molten coating material toward the article to be coated, and coating the article with the molten coating material. In another aspect, the coated article is one or more piston rings. | 01-08-2015 |
