description Few work have been performed regarding the quantitative characterization of three-dimensional (3D) pitting corrosion process directly, although the corrosion behaviors and the passivation film stability of metals in various solutions have been studied heavily. The reported work quantitatively characterized the 3D pitting corrosion of the Fe-based amorphous alloy coating (Fe-based AAC) via X-ray micro-computed tomography (X-ray micro-CT) and further elucidated the mechanism of its pitting corrosion. Moreover, the microstructure and electrochemical performance of the Fe-based AAC have also been explored. The results showed that the targeted thermal sprayed Fe43Cr20Mo10W4C15B6Y2 coating was prone to be corroded with the increase of the hydrogen ion concentration, i.e. higher hydrogen ion concentration leads to poorer corrosion performance of the Fe-based AAC. The X-ray micro-CT results revealed that the pits in the Fe-based AAC initially nucleated below the pitting potential, and they also generated in the over-passivation stage. Furthermore, it was found that the corrosive medium does not penetrate into the coating/substrate interface, and the deduced corrosion mechanism from the findings was also discussed.
