Abstract

A metal body having at least one vapor-deposited treatment layer overlying and adhered to at least one side of the metal body, and a layer of adhesion-promoting material overlying and adhered to at least one treatment layer, provided that when two treatment layers are deposited on one side of the body and the first layer is vapor-deposited zinc, the second layer is not vapor-deposited silica or alumina, the adhesion-promoting material being suitable for enhancing adhesion between the body and a substrate. Laminates comprising metal foils and at least one vapor-deposited treatment layer overlying and adhered to at least one side of the metal foil; a layer of adhesion-promoting material overlying and adhered to at least one vapor-deposited treatment layer; and a layer of an electrically non-conductive material overlying and adhered to the adhesion-promoting layer.
