Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0947605A1] A metal workpiece (1) has increased corrosion resistance by blasting with grit which leaves grit debris as a corrosion resistant coating (2). The corrosion resistance of a metal workpiece (1) is increased by blasting with grit which causes deformation or structural modification of the workpiece surface and which produces corrosion resistant grit debris to form a corrosion resistant coating (2). An Independent claim is also included for a metal workpiece (1) having a deformed and compacted surface region (3) structurally bonded (preferably cold welded) to a coating layer (2). Preferred Features: The workpiece consists of an AlMgSi or AlMgSiCu alloy and the grit consists of aluminum or an AlMg alloy.
