In the present paper we used fluidized bed technology (FBT) to deposit silicide coatings on steels. The silicide coatings are well known for their excellent corrosion resistance. Siliconizing in fluidized bed is a promising method to improve the corrosion resistance of steel without altering its other properties. The asproduced silicide coatings are uniform all over the steel substrate, with good thickness, adequate adherence and consisted only from the phase FeSiC.4enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Διεθνέςhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Άρθρο σε επιστημονικό περιοδικό10.4028/www.scientific.net/KEM.592-593.409Powder MetallurgySiliconizingSurface Properties
