Abstract
In the marine atmosphere, the corrosion rate of ship components is 4–5 times higher than that of the inland atmosphere. To solve the serious corrosion problem arising from long-term service in the marine environment of naval aircraft and ships, etc., this paper takes Al0.7FeCoCrNiCux system high-entropy alloy coating prepared by laser melting technology with 5083 aluminum alloys as the base material and analyzes the aging and failure mode of equipment coating under a marine atmospheric environment. XRD and SEM were utilized to study the microscopic morphological structure of the coatings. The laws of influence of Cu elements on the electrochemical corrosion behavior of the Al0.7FeCoCrNiCux system high-entropy alloy in 3.5 wt.% NaCl neutral solution was investigated by using dynamic potential polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and neutral salt spray acceleration tests and outdoor atmospheric exposure tests were carried out. The results show that the Al0.7FeCoCrNiCux (x = 0) high-entropy alloy coating has a single BCC phase structure and the Al0.7FeCoCrNiCux (x = 0.30, 0.60, 0.80, 1.00) high-entropy alloy coating consists of both BCC and FCC phases with a typical dendrite morphology. With the increase in Cu content, the self-corrosion potential of Al0.7FeCoCrNiCux gradually increases and the current density gradually decreases, which with the results of the electrochemical impedance spectrum analysis, indicating that the corrosion resistance of Al0.7FeCoCrNiCu1.00 is optimal. The results of the neutral salt spray acceleration test and the outdoor atmospheric exposure test were integrated to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the corrosion resistance of the coating. The corrosion resistance of Al0.7FeCoCrNiCux coating increases with the increase in Cu content, and the impressive strength and plastic deformation are best when x = 0.80. Neutral salt spray accelerated the test with no corrosion at 5040 h, and even if the coating is broken, it can last up to 4320 h. In the outdoor atmospheric exposure test, which was conducted 12 months after the coating surface test, no corrosion occurred.
