Abstract
Abstract A heat resistant protective coating for a metal surface comprises a glass matrix having at least 50 percent by weight of finely divided metallic particles dispersed therein. The coating is produced by covering the metal surface with a mixture containing 40 to 60% by weight of finely divided metallic particles, 17 to 40% by weight of a ceramic frit and from 10 to 18% by weight of an organic resin, and heating the thus coated surface in air to burn off the organic resin and fuse the frit.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
107 words
A metal article having thereon a heat-resistant protective coating, said coating consisting essentially of: (a) a glass matrix which has as its major constituent, a eutectic of PbO-B 2 O 3 and contains about 84% by weight of PbO; (b) from about 50 to about 78% by weight of aluminum particles in the size range of 5 to 10 microns dispersed in said glass matrix; and (c) a metal chromate selected from the group consisting of zinc chromate, strontium chromate, barium chromate and mixtures thereof, and (d) an organophilic cation modified clay; the glass matrix and aluminum particles being substantially chemically non-reactive with respect to each other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
107 words
A metal article having thereon a heat-resistant protective coating, said coating consisting essentially of: (a) a glass matrix which has as its major constituent, a eutectic of PbO-B 2 O 3 and contains about 84% by weight of PbO; (b) from about 50 to about 78% by weight of aluminum particles in the size range of 5 to 10 microns dispersed in said glass matrix; and (c) a metal chromate selected from the group consisting of zinc chromate, strontium chromate, barium chromate and mixtures thereof, and (d) an organophilic cation modified clay; the glass matrix and aluminum particles being substantially chemically non-reactive with respect to each other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
84 words
A coated metal article having a heat resistant electrically conductive protective coating thereon consisting essentially of a lead borate glass having finely divided aluminum particles dispersed therein, the aluminum particles present in the amount of about 50-79% by weight of the glass and having a particle size in the range of about 5-10 microns. the electrically conductive coating imparting galvanic resistance from corrosion to the coated metal surface, the glass and aluminum particles dispersed therein being substantially chemically nonreactive with respect to each other.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
84 words
A coated metal article having a heat resistant electrically conductive protective coating thereon consisting essentially of a lead borate glass having finely divided aluminum particles dispersed therein, the aluminum particles present in the amount of about 50-79% by weight of the glass and having a particle size in the range of about 5-10 microns. the electrically conductive coating imparting galvanic resistance from corrosion to the coated metal surface, the glass and aluminum particles dispersed therein being substantially chemically nonreactive with respect to each other.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
The coated metal article of claim 2 wherein the coating also contains a metal chromate selected from the group consisting of zinc chromate, strontium chromate, barium chromate or mixtures thereof, thereby ehancing the corrosion resistance of said coating.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
66 words
A heat-resistant coated metal article having a heat resistant electrically conductive protective coating thereon consisting essentially of a glass matrix material containing therein finely-divided aluminum particles within the size range of 5-10 microns, the aluminum particles present to the extent of about 50-78% by weight of the total glass matrix solids, the glass and dispersed aluminum particles being substantially chemically non-reactive with respect to each other.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
66 words
A heat-resistant coated metal article having a heat resistant electrically conductive protective coating thereon consisting essentially of a glass matrix material containing therein finely-divided aluminum particles within the size range of 5-10 microns, the aluminum particles present to the extent of about 50-78% by weight of the total glass matrix solids, the glass and dispersed aluminum particles being substantially chemically non-reactive with respect to each other.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
The metal article having thereon a heat resistant protective coating as claimed in claim 4, wherein said coating further contains a metal chromate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
34 words
The metal article having thereon a heat resistant coating as claimed in claim 5 wherein said metal chromate is selected from the group consisting of zinc chromate, strontium chromate, barium chromate and mixtures thereof.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
40 words
The metal article having thereon a heat resistant protective coating as claimed in claim 4 wherein said glass matrix comprises a eutectic of PbO-B 2 O 3 , as a major constituent, the eutectic containing 84% by weight of PbO.
