The formation of an Fe-Al intermetallic compound film on carbon steel by shot lining and heat treatment was investigated. In the experiment, a centrifugal-type peening machine with an electrical heater was employed. The shot medium was high-carbon cast steel. The substrate was a commercial medium, namely, the carbon steel S45C, and the sheet was commercially available pure aluminum. The shot lining process of carbon steel with an aluminum sheet was carried out at 300 °C in air using a peening machine. Heat treatment was performed at diffusion temperatures from 600 to 1050 °C in vacuum. The lined substrates exhibited a harder layer of aluminum-rich intermetallics, such as Fe₂Al₅, in the diffusion temperature range of 650 to 900 °C. When the temperature of the lined substrates was more than 930 °C, the surface was covered with thicker and highly anticorrosive layers of iron-rich intermetallics, such as FeAl and Fe₃Al. We found that the present method could be used for the formation of functional films on carbon steel.
