Abstract
This study investigates the potential of ion-plated aluminum technology for modern industrial applications by applying a protective coating to 20# steel and evaluates the macroscopic and microscopic morphology, thickness (8∼13μm), bonding strength, and performance of the coating in highly corrosive environments. Experimental results indicate that ion-plated aluminum technology significantly improves the surface properties of the untreated material, with the corrosion current decreasing from 10-0.77A/cm2 to 10-2.75A/cm2. Additionally, after a neutral salt spray test, the samples exhibited no white corrosion products after 96 h and resisted red rust formation for up to 360 h. This analysis demonstrates that ion-plated aluminum technology enhances the service life and reliability of materials, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional metal coatings and showing significant potential for broad industrial applications.
