Claims22
A composite comprising a metallic substrate and a predominantly amorphous and hermetic aluminophosphate film in which the film and the substrate are adhered through a phosphate-bonded metal oxide, an oxide layer linked to phosphate groups, or mixtures thereof.
A composite comprising a metallic substrate and a predominantly amorphous and hermetic aluminophosphate film containing [—PO4—AlO4—AlO6—AlO4—PO4—] fragments, wherein the film and the substrate are adhered through a phosphate-bonded metal oxide, an oxide layer linked to phosphate groups, or mixtures thereof.
A composite comprising a metallic substrate and a predominantly amorphous aluminophosphate film in which the film and the substrate are adhered through a phosphate-bonded metal oxide, an oxide layer linked to phosphate groups, or mixtures thereof and in which the aluminophosphate contains Al—O—Al bonds.
