The application relates to the field of metal nanopowder or plasma spraying, and particularly discloses a biliary stent prepared by combining metal nanopowder with a plasma spraying process. The ZrNbFeLa coating prepared by the plasma spraying process has good corrosion resistance, but the hemolysis rate is poor. Further, a proper amount of metal Ti is injected into the ZrNbFeLa coating, so that the biocompatibility of the ZrNbFeLa coating can be significantly improved, the corrosion resistance is not greatly affected, and the ZrNbFeLa coating can meet the use requirements of medical materials such as the biliary stent. It should be noted that the ion injection amount of the metal Ti needs to be controlled within 2.8*10 5 ions / cm 2 -1.2*10 12 ions / cm 2 , otherwise, too much titanium will cause the corrosion resistance of the ZrNbFeLa coating to sharply decrease.
