A super-hydrophobic anti-corrosion film was facilely prepared via in situ growth of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) on the etched AZ31 magnesium alloy and then modification by 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorooctyltrimethoxysilane (PFOTMS) in this work. The morphology, structure, composition, surface roughness and water contact angles (WCA), and the anti-corrosion performance of the samples were investigated. The results revealed that the micro/nano hierarchical surface morphology of the films was composed of island structures obtained after chemical etching and MgAl-LDH nanowalls grown in situ. The best hydrophobicity (CA = 163°) was obtained on the MgAl-LDHs with the maximum surface roughness. Additionally, the potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and immersion test indicated that the super-hydrophobic LDH films provided better corrosion resistance to AZ31 magnesium alloy due to the double-protection derived from the LDHs and super-hydrophobic properties. Furthermore, the contact angle could be kept at above 140° after dipped in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution for 6 days.

Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) has been used in the past as a useful surface treatment technique to improve the anticorrosion properties of Mg alloys by forming protective layer. Coatings were prepared on AZ31 magnesium alloy in phosphate electrolyte with the addition of TiO2nanoparticles using plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO). This present work focuses on developing a TiO2functional coating to create a novel electrophotocatalyst while observing the surface morphology, structure, composition, and corrosion resistance of the PEO coating. Microstructural characterization of the coating was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) followed by image analysis and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX). The corrosion resistance of the PEO treated samples was evaluated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and DC polarization tests in 3.5 wt.% NaCl. The XRD pattern shows that the components of the oxide film include Mg from the substrate as well as MgO and Mg2TiO4due to the TiO2nanoparticle addition. The results show that the PEO coating with TiO2nanoparticles did improve the corrosion resistance when compared to the AZ31 substrate alloy.

The microarc oxidation (MAO) films on AZ31 magnesium alloy were modified by high-intensity pulsed ion beam (HIPIB) at an ion current density of 200 A/cm2 with 1-5 shots. The modified MAO films presented a corrosion resistance superior to that of the original films. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation revealed that a sealing layer was formed on the MAO films by HIPIB irradiation. The corrosion behaviors of the MAO films in 3.5 % NaCl solution were characterized by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The noticeable improvement in the corrosion resistance of MAO films is attributed to the blocking effect of the sealing layer that hinders the process of electrolyte penetrating the MAO films to the magnesium alloy.

This work investigates environmentally friendly alternatives to toxic and carcinogenic Cr (VI)-based surface treatments for aluminium alloys. It is focused on multifunctional thin or flash plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO)-layered double hydroxides (LDH) coatings. Three PEO coatings developed under a current-controlled mode based on aluminate, silicate and phosphate were selected from 31 processes (with different combinations of electrolytes, electrical conditions and time) according to corrosive behavior and energy consumption. In situ Zn-Al LDH was optimized in terms of chemical composition and exposure time on the bulk material, then applied to the selected PEO coatings. The structure, morphology and composition of PEO coatings with and without Zn-Al-LDH were characterized using XRD, SEM and EDS. Thicker and more porous PEO coatings revealed higher amounts of LDH flakes on their surfaces. The corrosive behavior of the coatings was studied by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The corrosion resistance was enhanced considerably after the PEO coatings formation in comparison with bulk material. Corrosion resistance was not affected after the LDH treatment, which can be considered as a first step in achieving active protection systems by posterior incorporation of green corrosion inhibitors.

This present work investigated the corrosion behavior of AZ31 magnesium alloy substrates pre-treated with bis-[triethoxysilylpropyl] tetrasulfide silane modified with cerium nitrate. The corrosion behavior of the pre-treated substrates in 0.005M sodium chloride solutions was assessed by potentiodynamic polarization, open circuit potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed that the silane pre-treatments improved the corrosion resistance of the AZ31 magnesium alloy substrates in the presence of chloride ions. Especially the addition of cerium nitrate played an important role in reducing the corrosion activity.

Abstract The coating prepared by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) was created on AZ31 magnesium alloy surface with the aim to evaluate its effect on corrosion resistance. The DC current was applied on the sample in solution consisted of 10 g/l Na3PO4·12H2O and 1 g/l KOH. Additional samples were prepared with 2 and 4 minutes of preparation to observe evolution of the PEO coating. Morphology of the coatings was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy and chemical composition was examined by EDX analysis. Electrochemical characteristic were measured by potentiodynamic polarization tests and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 0.1 M NaCl at the laboratory temperature. Obtained data were presented in form of potentiodynamic curves and Nyquist diagrams. Results of analysis showed that plasma electrolytic oxidation coating positively influence corrosion resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloy in chosen corrosive environment.

Electrochemical characteristics of AZ31 magnesium alloy after impacting by ultrasonic impact peening (UIP) were measured in order to evaluate its effect on corrosion resistance of mentioned alloy. For this purpose, potentio-dynamic polarization (PD) tests and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) of ground and impacted samples were performed in 0.1 M NaCl solution at the temperature of 22±2 °C after 5 minutes of potential stabilization. The obtained PD curves were analysed using the Tafel extrapolation method and data from EIS measurements in form of Nyquist plots were quantified by the equivalent circuit method. The results showed clearly that application of the UIP significantly deteriorated corrosion resistance of AZ31 alloy in the chosen testing solution.

Microarc oxidation (MAO) coatings were prepared on AZ91D magnesium alloy in a novel dual electrolyte containing various concentrations of sodium citrate (C6H5Na3O7). The surface and cross-sectional morphologies, coating thickness and surface roughness were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), layer thickness meter and digital microscope, respectively. The corrosion resistance of coatings was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed that both the striking voltage and final voltage decreased gradually with the increase of C6H5Na3O7 concentration. When the C6H5Na3O7 concentration increased, surface roughness increased gradually, while thickness of the coating increased at first and then decreased. The coating formed in the electrolyte containing 5g/L C6H5Na3O7 had a much more uniform and compact microstructure with less micropores and micro-cracks. EIS test showed that the concentration of C6H5Na3O7 mainly affected the corrosion resistance of inner dense layer, and the coating with best corrosion resistance was obtained in the electrolyte containing 5g/L C6H5Na3O7.

Coatings prepared by different electrolyte additives were investigated on AZ31 magnesium alloy by plasma electrolytic oxidation. In this study, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis were employed to assess the morphologies, chemical and phase compositions of the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) coatings, respectively. Furthermore, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to evaluate the corrosion behavior of the composite coating. The investigation of the effect of electrolyte additives in the base electrolyte showed that the PEO specimens exhibit different surface and cross-sectional morphologies, and phase compositions. The results showed that SiO32− was conducive to the growth of the ceramic layer, and the ceramic layer developing in the electrolyte which contained AlO2− showed a typical double-layer structure. The corrosion resistance of coating formed in a phosphate bath was higher than that of the coating formed in silicate bath and coating formed in an aluminate bath. Moreover, the corrosion resistance of the coating formed in the fluoride bath was the highest.
