The hypothesis examined in the study is that a successful TiN coating would provide an effective mass-transport barrier thus preventing corrosion. In the present work, single-layer TiN and multiple-layer TiN + Ti, TiN + Ti + TiN, and ZrO2 + TiN were deposited on Type 316L stainless steel substrates. The coated samples were tested for corrosion properties in different types of water using polarization and weight loss tests. Results of corrosion testing are presented and discussed.}, number={2}, journal={NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY}, author={Scheffing, C. C. and Jagannadham, K. and Yim, M. -S. and Bourham, M. A. and Farmer, J.
