diffusion coating

Penetrating protective layer

Diffusion coating is a surface treatment process where one metal is bonded to another by heating them together until atoms migrate across the boundary.

The coating metal diffuses into the base metal, creating a gradual transition rather than a distinct layer.

Common applications include galvanizing steel and creating corrosion-resistant alloys: The turbine blades received a diffusion coating to withstand high temperatures.
