This invention belongs to the field of spraying technology and relates to a low-cost, long-lasting
metal-reinforced anti-
corrosion coating and its preparation method adapted to the alternating salt and freeze environments of cold regions worldwide. The
coating consists of, from the inside out, a
metal substrate, an arc-sprayed pure aluminum underlayer, and a controllable, high-energy accelerated oxidation dense
alumina ceramic transition layer. This invention focuses on core technologies for
metal surface strengthening, using arc spraying instead of high-cost supersonic spraying, significantly reducing construction costs. It innovatively employs two exclusive high-energy accelerated oxidation processes: electric furnace
oxygen-assisted high-temperature oxidation and
laser in-situ oxidation. These processes can rapidly generate a highly dense, highly sealed
alumina ceramic reinforcement layer on the surface of the sprayed
aluminum metal layer, completely solving the industry shortcomings of existing
processing technologies, such as the thinness of traditional electrophoretic coatings, easy penetration and
corrosion of the substrate by
chloride ions, and the
porosity, insufficient density, and poor salt and freeze resistance of simple
thermal spraying aluminum coatings. This solution features pure metal-
ceramic reinforced protection, free from interference from organic paint coatings. It offers flexible
processing, strong substrate versatility, and wide applicability. The
metal coating, after high-energy oxidation reinforcement, possesses excellent salt spray resistance, freeze-thaw resistance,
aging resistance, and
high density and impermeability. It is specifically designed for harsh working conditions in global temperate cold regions, high-altitude
permafrost regions, high-salt freeze-thaw environments, and low-temperature strong
ultraviolet radiation. Its overall cost-effectiveness and service life far surpass existing traditional metal
corrosion protection technologies.
