    Abstract: An improved substrate surface texture i.e., roughness, significantly improves the adhesion of thermal spray coatings. The surface texture is defined by two metrology parameters and the invention comprehends a range of average roughness (Sa) between 9 and 15 μm and developed interfacial area ratio (Sdr) of greater than 100%. This surface texture is achieved by methods such as water jet erosion, mechanical roughening, laser texturing, chemical etching and plasma etching. The surface texture is especially beneficial for walls of cylinders of internal combustion engines, hydraulic cylinders and similar components to which a thermal spray coating is adhered and which are exposed to sliding or frictional wear.

    Abstract: A method of making a magnetic material includes a step of providing a first material in the form of a core powder containing Nd, Fe and B. The first material is combined with the second material to form a powder combination. The second material includes a component selected from the group consisting of Dy, Tb, and combinations thereof. The powder combination is encapsulated to form an encapsulated powder combination. A magnetic field is applied to the powder combination during encapsulation and thereafter to align the magnetic dipoles therein. The encapsulated powder combination is isostatically pressed with heat to form the magnetic material.

    Abstract: An engine cylinder bore with an anodized or phosphated bondcoat and a method of coating the surface of an engine cylinder bore with an anodized or phosphated bondcoat prior to depositing a thermally sprayed protective coating. Cleaning or related pretreatment operations may also be used. In one preferred form, the cylinder bore is made from an aluminum-based alloy or a magnesium-based alloy, while the bondcoat forms a porous interface between the cylinder bore and the outermost protective coating. Additives may be placed into the anodizing or phosphating solution to promote adhesion and corrosion resistance.

    Abstract: A method of making a permanent magnet and a permanent magnet. The method includes providing combining a core material and a surface material so that the surface concentration of dysprosium, terbium, or both in the surface material is high while simultaneously keeping the bulk concentration of dysprosium, terbium, or both low. From this, the magnet has a non-uniform distribution of dysprosium, terbium or both. Varying approaches to preparing the combined core and surface materials may be used to ensure that the surface powder effectively wraps around the core powder as a way to achieve the high surface concentration and low bulk concentration. In one form, the core material may be made from a neodymium-iron-boron permanent magnet precursor material.
