Thermal spray-coated components are widely used as wear-resistant coatings in many applications. However, these coatings have high levels of discontinuities that affect the corrosion resistance of the coated system. To reduce this problem, these coatings are usually sealed with liquid sealants (metals, organic or inorganic). The aim of this work is to seal the surface discontinuities of thermal-sprayed coatings using PVD and/or ALD coatings. To this end, CrN (arc deposition PVD) and TiO2 (ALD) coatings were deposited on thermal-sprayed alumina coatings. The samples produced were then analysed in both cross-sectional and planar views to detect the possible permeation of the thin film coatings into the thermal spray defects. Rf-GDOES measurements were performed to detect the very thin ALD deposit on the surface. The corrosion resistance of the sealed coatings was verified with immersion tests, wherein the OCP was monitored for 24 h, and potentiodynamic tests were performed after 15 min and 24 h immersions. The results showed that the thin films were not able to block the permeation of corrosive media, but they could reduce the permeation of corrosive media with a beneficial behaviour on corrosion resistance.
