Abstract
Fe-23 Cr-5Al stainless steel was functionalized by a conversion treatm ent in order to allow alumina electrodeposition with strong interfacia l bonding. The very porous conversion coating prepared in acid solutio n had excellent adhesion and was conductive enough to permit cathodic reactions inducing local pH conditions favourable for the precipitatio n of alumina oxyhydroxide during electrolysis of aluminium salt soluti ons. The coating presented chemical composition gradients suitable for strong adhesion. The improvement of the thermal oxidation behaviour w as studied at 1000 degrees C.
