Abstract

A multi-layer article ( 1 ) disclosed herein contains a metallic substrate ( 2 ), a protective layer ( 6 ), and an adhesive bonding layer ( 14 ) including an oxygen-containing compound that bonds the adhesive bonding layer to the metallic substrate, the protective layer, or both. A method for forming the multi-layer article includes the steps of heating a protective bonding composition ( 20 ) to form a molten material ( 24 ) in contact with a metal-containing surface ( 2 ), allowing the molten material to cool and solidify into the adhesion bonding layer ( 14 ) affixed to the metal-containing surface, depositing a ceramic material ( 26 ) onto the adhesive bonding layer, and heating the ceramic material to form the protective layer ( 6 ) affixed to the adhesive bonding layer.
