Abstract
A metal component made of a base metal and a coating system thereon is characterized in that the coating system comprises a conductive layer on the base metal and a resin-based layer including conductive pigments on the conductive layer. The conductive pigments form electrically conductive 3D-networks in the resin, with the networks being randomly distributed in the resin. Further, a method for coating a metal component is disclosed, and may include depositing a conductive layer on a surface of the component, depositing a resin with electrically conductive pigments on the conductive layer and drying the resin. The coating system may be applied to metal components, including aerospace fasteners such as pins, bolts, collars, nuts and nut plates, and washers, as well as studs, latches, helicopter rotors, and landing gear structures.
