Abstract: The invention relates to a process for forming coatings or free-standing deposits of nano-crystalline metals, metal alloys or metal matrix composites. The process employs drum plating or selective plating processes involving pulse electrode-position and a non-stationary anode or cathode. Novel nano- crystalline metal matrix composites and micro components are disclosed as well. Also described is a process for forming micro-components with grain sizes below 1,000nm.

Abstract: La presente invención se refiere a artículos o artículos autónomos recubiertos al menos parcialmente con materiales metálicos que llevan Co amorfos y/o de granos finos, substancialmente libres de porosidad, que contienen opcionalmente materiales particulados sólidos dispersados en los mismos. Las capas y/o parches metálicos electrodepositados que comprenden Co proporcionan, mejoran o restablecen la resistencia, el uso y/o la lubricidad de los substratos sin reducir el funcionamiento en condiciones de fatiga comparado con el substrato recubierto con Cr no recubierto o de espesor equivalente. Los recubrimientos metálicos amorfos y/o de granos finos que comprenden Co son particularmente adecuados para los artículos expuestos a ciclización térmica, fatiga y otras tensiones y/o en aplicaciones que requieren propiedades antimicrobianas e hidrofóbicas.

Abstract: Metal-coated polymer articles containing structural substantially porosity-free, fine-grained and/or amorphous metallic coatings/layers optionally containing solid particulates dispersed therein on polymer substrates, are disclosed. The substantially porosity-free metallic coatings/layers/patches are applied to polymer or polymer composite substrates to provide, enhance or restore vacuum/pressure integrity and fluid sealing functions. Due to the excellent adhesion between the metallic coating and the polymer article satisfactory thermal cycling performance is achieved. The invention can also be employed as a repair/refurbishment technique. The fine-grained and/or amorphous metallic coatings are particularly suited for strong and lightweight articles, precision molds, sporting goods, aerospace and automotive parts and other components exposed to thermal cycling and stress created by erosion and impact damage.

Abstract: Fine-grained (average grain size 1nm to 1,000nm) metallic coatings optionally containing solid particulates dispersed therein are disclosed. The fine- grained metallic materials are significantly harder and stronger than conventional coatings of the same chemical composition due to Hall-Petch strengthening and have low linear coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs). The invention provides means for matching the CTE of the fine-grained metallic coating to the one of the substrate by adjusting the composition of the alloy and/or by varying the chemistry and volume fraction of particulates embedded in the coating. The fine-grained metallic coatings are particularly suited for strong and lightweight articles, precision molds, sporting goods, automotive parts and components exposed to thermal cycling. The low CTEs and the ability to match the CTEs of the fine-grained metallic coatings with the CTEs of the substrate minimize dimensional changes during thermal cycling and prevent premature failure.
