Claim 18:
19. A method of manufacturing a component for an electrochemical device, the method comprising:
providing a metallic substrate;
disposing a composition comprising a plurality of precursor particles on less than 90% of a total projected area of the metallic substrate, wherein the precursor particles comprise a metal, carbon, metal hydride or a combination thereof, to provide a coated substrate,
wherein the precursor particles have an average particle size of less than 200 μm; and

heat-treating the coated substrate to form particles from the precursor particles, and bond the particles to the substrate by a metallurgical bond formed between the particles and the metallic substrate to manufacture the component,
wherein the metallurgical bond has a composition which is a combination of a composition of the metallic substrate and a composition of the particle, a reaction product of the substrate and the particle, or a combination thereof.
