Abstract: Diffusion metallic anticorrosive zinc-iron-aluminum coatings of iron and iron-based item surfaces, realized by heating of products at temperatures of 370–450° C. in a saturating powder mixture environment in a closed container. The coating compositions are multiphase-polymetallic, and comprise zinc, iron and aluminum. Other elements may be added to attain specific coating properties. This coating exhibits a high corrosion resistance (at least a 700-hour corrosion resistance level in a standard salt spray test), a relatively high hardness level and good adhesion to secondary coatings.
