Abstract

Purpose In this study, an amorphous Al-Ti-Ni coating was fabricated on S355 steel using an arc spraying, and its corrosion behavior immersed in 3.5 per cent NaCl solution for 720 h was discussed, which provided an experimental basis for the application of arc sprayed Al-Ti-Ni coating on S355 steel on marine platform. Design/methodology/approach An amorphous Al-Ti-Ni coating was sprayed on S355 structural steel using an arc spraying. The surface-interface morphologies, chemical element compositions and phases of the obtained Al-Ti-Ni coating were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer and X-ray diffractometer, respectively. The distributions of chemical elements on the coating surface and interface were analyzed using an energy spectrum scanning; the bonding mechanism between the coating and the substrate was also discussed. Findings Financial support for this research by the Key Research and Development Project of Jiangsu Province (BE2016052). Originality/value In this study, an amorphous Al-Ti-Ni coating was fabricated on S355 steel using an arc spraying, its corrosion behavior immersed in 3.5 per cent 25 NaCl solution for 720 h was discussed.
