In this work, FeCrB-based composites modified by in-situ ceramic particles (TiB2 and TiC) were synthesized, and the effects of ceramic particles on their microstructure evolution and the corrosion-resistant behavior in liquid aluminum were systematically investigated. Results indicate that the introduction of in-situ ceramic particles can significantly improve the size, morphology and distribution of borides, thus leading to a remarkable enhancement of the corrosion resistance. Based on the growth-dissolution kinetic relationship of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) at the corrosion interface, a theoretical numerical model was established to quantitatively describe the corrosion behavior of ferrous alloys in liquid aluminum, and the multi-scale corrosion-resistance mechanism is proposed to elucidate the excellent performance of FeCrB-based composites in liquid aluminum.
