Abstract
A piston for an internal combustion engine which is coated for enhanced oxidation protection and/or erosion protection is provided. The piston includes a body formed of an iron-based material. The iron-based material is coated with a superalloy and manganese phosphate. The superalloy is preferably NiCrAlY, NiCrAl, NiCr, CoCrAly, and/or CoNiCrAlY. The manganese phosphate can be disposed on the superalloy, but not between the superalloy and the iron-based material. The superalloy preferably has a thickness of 0.1 to 2.0 mm, a porosity of 1% to less than 5%, and a surface roughness of less than 5 microns Ra. Another component for an internal combustion engine which is coated with the superalloy and the manganese phosphate is also provided.
