摘要

The GH3535 alloy as a candidate material for molten salt metallurgy suffered serious corrosion that threatened the safety of nuclear facility. An amorphous enamel coating based on SiO2-B2O3-Na2O-CaO was designed to protect GH3535 alloy in molten LiCl-KCl salt vapor atmosphere at 550 °C. Under the protection of this coating, its mass gain was merely 0.31 mg/cm2 after 300 h of corrosion, while the mass loss of the bare substrate had reached to 6.34 mg/cm2. Internal oxidation occurred on the bare alloy, which a loose feather-like NiCr2O4 with sporadic Ni3Fe particles failed to separate the alloy matrix from corrosive medium attacking. A series of silicate products (SiO2-Li2SiO3-Ca2SiO4) were formed on enamel coating, which effectively blocks the diffusion of chloride salt.
