Cr metal layer of about 12μm thickness was prepared on zirconium alloy surface by multi-arc ion plating technology.Oxidation behavior and film adhesion strength to substrate of Cr-coated sample were investigated at 1 200℃high temperature.The results from SEM analysis show that multi-arc ion plating layer has uniform thickness,smooth surface and clear film/substrate interface,and there are a large number of micro-holes and large particles on its surface.High temperature oxidation experimental results show that Cr -coated sample has obviously b...
