Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method of producing black, metal-containing surface layers.
  • the present invention provides a method of producing black, metal-containing surface layers consisting of molybdenum and/or tungsten in the form of metal or an oxygen-containing compound, bound to the oxide or the hydroxide of at least one of the following elements: Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba.
  • the invention also relates to the case in which subsequent to partial reduction an oxide of M0 or W remains, which is bound to an oxide of at least one of said elements.
  • the black surface layer can be formed on a great number of different metals, for example nickel, molybdenum, copper, iron and various kinds of steel.
  • This black coating is obtained in a simple manner by the reduction of the molybdate or tungstate of the said elements or by starting from a mixture thereof. It is also possible to obtain said layer by applying to the metal substrate a compound of M0 or W and a compound of one of the said elements so that by a reaction at a high temperature in a reducing atmosphere molybdenum or tungsten in the form of the metal and of a given oxide or a hydroxide or, as the case may be, an oxygen-containing compound of Mo and/or W with at least one of the said elements is formed.
  • the method according to the invention consists in that a polymolybdate of lithium particularly the trimolybdate 3MoO .Li O is used, which material is particularly suitable for objects which should not be heated in excess of a temperature of 600 C. to 700 C.
  • the immersion of a metal tape in a solution of this trimolybdate in equal parts of water and alcohol with a density of 1.12 gms./cm. provides a uniformblack layer adhering excellently.
  • a suitable quantity of a binder in order to vary the viscosity and wetting properties of the suspension employed.
  • a colloid solution formed for example by 8 gms. of nitrocellulose in 140 mls. of ethylene-glycol and 60 mls. of butanol constitutes, with the solution of lithium-polymolybdate, a pseudo-solution which is particularly suitable for application by spraying, by means of a painting roller or by other similar methods.
  • trimolybdate 3MoO .Li O subjected to a reduction at comparatively low temperature (about 600 0), provides, by heating in hydrogen, a pitch black layer.
  • a hydrogen-nitrogen atmosphere provides a violet-black layer, probably due to the presence of a small quantity of molybdenum oxide.
  • An incomplete reduction may leave as an alternative, molybdenum bronze of the formula MoO .Li (x51).
  • products of an incomplete reduction of this polymolybdate are not essential for this invention, if the surface layer contains oxidized or non-oxidized molybdenum, bound to an oxide-containing compound of lithium.
  • the present invention thus relates to a coating which is obtained by complete or partial reduction of the applied molybdate.
  • tubes were more stable (after a duration of 1000 hours of operation) than tubes, the anodes of which were made of the conventional material, that is Feralrna (steel sheath covered on both sides with aluminum), Niferalma (steel sheath covered on one side with nickel and the other side with aluminum) and nickel having a black carbon layer.
  • the nickel-steel tape was provided by spraying with a suspension of 3MoO .Li O in ethanol diluted with Water in a ratio of 1:1 and a density of 1.12 gms./cm. and with the same quantity of collodium.
  • the layer was dried by passing the tape along an infrared lamp, which heated the tape at 350 C. in air, after which the tape was sintered in hydrogen at 650 C. for five minutes.
  • a black surface layer on a metal substrate consisting of an oxidic compound of a metal selected from the group consisting of molybdenum and tungsten and an element selected from the group consisting; of Li, Na, K. Rb, and Cs.
  • a method of forming a black surface layer on a metal substrate comprising the steps of applying a layer of a compound selected from the group consisting of molybdates and tungstates of an element selected from the group consisting of Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs, to at least a portion of the surface of said substrate, and heating said surface layer in a reducing atmosphere to a temperature of about 600 C. to convert said layer to a black surface layer consisting of an oxidic compound of a metal selected from the group consisting of molybdenum and tungsten and one of said elements.
