Abstract
When the material interacts with its surroundings, the deterioration of the material's important properties is
referred to as corrosion. Substancesusedasconstructionmaterialprocessingequipment, includingtheproduct from
it, called materials. These materials can be metals and their alloys,composites,polymers,ceramics, etc., Corrosion is
commonly known as rust. Generally, Iron and its alloys are the most commonlyused materials opted to design
different structural component, and thus are largely affected by corrosion inthis aspect understanding of
corrosion study plays a very vital role. Our work includes the use of the thermalspraybyDgunmethodonthreedifferentInconelmaterials600,625and718arecoatedwithnickelchromium & average
thicknesses of 61.34µm, 67.97µm and 60.84µm obtained. The nickel chromium coatedmaterials then undergo acid
corrosion and salt corrosion tests. In Acid Corrosion test, The Inconel coatedsubstrates were subjected
tolaboratory corrosion tests utilizing glass flask and chemicals of the reagentgrade. The specimen has adimension
of (15*20*6) mm.The three Inconel specimens 600, 625, 718 aresoaked in three different beakers containing a
capacity of 60ml HCl concentrated for 72 hours. For threedifferent Inconel specimens 600, 625, 718 using Salt
spray test rig Salt corrosion test is conducted withtemperature range 35°Cto65°C and corrosionrate is calculated.
Finally, after the acid corrosion test onthree Inconel 625 shows aweight reduction of 0.28% and in salt Inconel
625 shows the average corrosionrate of 38.5Mpy. Hence it
isconcludedthatInconel625materialhasmaximumcoatingthicknessascompareto Inconel 600 & 718 coated material
therefore Inconel 625 exhibited a promising physical and structural properties & also studied the surface
morphology of coated Inconel substrates by Atomic force microscopy(AFM) from this it should be noted that in
some areas of materials, there were indications of the existence oflocalcrystallinestructures. Cracking is clearly
evident at the surface
