[0003] In the thermal power generation industry, the corrosion problem of boiler unit pipelines in high-temperature sulfur-containing flue gas environments is one of the main problems of high operating costs; Cr2O3 is a common high-temperature coating material, which is usually used to improve the corrosion resistance of materials in high-temperature environments. It has excellent high-temperature stability, good oxidation resistance and chemical inertness, and can protect the substrate from corrosion. However, Cr2O3 has poor stability in steam above 600°C, and the loose oxide film caused by volatile products will cause the oxide film to peel off; in addition, the Cr content in the alloy matrix is ​​relatively low. As the service time increases, when the Cr content required for the growth of the oxide film cannot be supplemented, the oxidation resistance of the alloy will also drop sharply. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to study and develop new corrosion-resistant and oxidation-resistant coatings suitable for the inner and outer wall surfaces of pipelines for boiler units.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present invention, in step 2, during the workpiece surface pretreatment process, the workpiece surface is cleaned by a high-pressure water gun and rinsed with alcohol or acetone.
