Resistance to thermal shock and mol- ten zinc corrosion of the coatings were also conducted. Results showed that MoB–CoCr coating exhibited a better Keywords: resistance property to thermal shock than that of WC–12Co. At the same time, the corrosion test showed that life- Hot-dip galvanizing MoB–CoCr coating time of samples with MoB–CoCr coatings in molten zinc appeared to be longer than that of W
