Purpose

This specification covers the requirements for ion vapor deposited (IVD) aluminum on steel, titanium, and aluminum alloys.

Application

This process has been used typically to improve corrosion resistance of ferrous parts operating at service temperatures up to 925 °F (496 °C) without the risk of hydrogen embrittlement and solid metal embrittlement, but usage is not limited to such applications.
