Abstract
Abstract A composition for providing an electrically insulative coating on electrical alloys having a high permeability and a low core loss which consists essentially of an aqueous solution containing ammonium ions, phosphate ions, chromate ions and a substantially saturated level of Group II A metal ions from at least one metal in Group II A of the periodic table, which are at least in part provided as the oxide, hydroxide, carbonate, bicarbonate and/or chromate of the Group II A metal or metals. A method for providing an electrically insulative coating on an electrical alloy having a high permeability and a low core loss comprising the steps of coating the alloy with the composition of this invention and curing the coating. A composite article comprising at least one layer of an electrical alloy having a high permeability and a low core loss and at least one layer of a substantially water insoluble, electrically insulative coating which is comprised of a saturated level of Group II A metal cations and anionic polymeric chains of chromium, oxygen and phosphorus atoms.
