Method for bonding refractory ceramic and metal

Abstract

A method is disclosed for mechanically bonding a metal component to a ceramic material, comprising attaching an anchor material to at least a portion of one surface of the metal component, and then applying the ceramic material to at least a portion of the one surface of the metal component, such that after the ceramic material solidifies, the anchor material is substantially embedded in at least a portion of the ceramic material, thereby forming a mechanical bond between the metal component and the ceramic material via the anchor material. Also disclosed is an article comprising a metal component and a ceramic material mechanically bonded thereto through an anchor material attached to at least a portion of the metal component.
