Abstract

In this work, the corrosion behavior of amorphous and partially crystallized Fe68Cr8Mo4Nb4B16 alloys has been studied. Fully amorphous ribbons were prepared by melt spinning and then partially and fully crystallized at different heat treatment temperatures. The corrosion behavior was evaluated in chloride-rich media at different pHs, ranging from acidic to alkaline. An exceptionally high corrosion resistance was observed for the new Fe68Cr8Mo4Nb4B16 amorphous alloy in the proposed media and pHs. The amorphous phase containing corrosion-resistant alloying elements such as chromium and molybdenum led to the formation of a highly stable passivating film, which coated and protected the active exposed metal surface. Partially crystallized samples heated up to 700 degrees C still grant the formation of a corrosion-resistant passivating layer. The presence of such a layer was correlated to the non-percolation of crystals embedded into the corrosion-resistant amorphous matrix. The corrosion resistance of fully crystalline annealed ribbons and as-cast ingots did not present the similar superior corrosion performance. This behavior was assigned to element partitioning throughout the crystallization, particularly chromium, which led to a non-homogeneous structure that preferentially triggered and held pitting corrosion along with the percolated crystalline material. These results indicate that the Fe68Cr8Mo4Nb4B16 alloy is a candidate for corrosion resistant coating where the suppression of crystallization is unavoidable. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V.
