DLC/SiC films (SiC as a transition layer) were prepared on the surface of magnesium alloy (AZ31) using a plasma immersion ion deposition (PIID) process. A dense and smooth DLC film can be observed by SEM. The surface hardness can be improved to 11.45GPa by deposition of the DLC film. Electrochemical tests show that the corrosion potential of AZ31 with DLC film is increased from -1.7V to -0.6V, which indicates that the DLC film improves the corrosion resistance of Mg alloy.

A corrosion protective DLC film is deposited on magnesium alloy AZ31, and exhibits strong anti-bacterial ability caused by the combined effects of the bacteria adhesion favorable surface and the local release of killing elements from the substrate.

A surface treatment process, composed of plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) and sealing by temporary oil preservation system containing corrosion inhibitors, was performed on AZ31 magnesium alloy in order to improve its corrosion resistance in environments containing chlorides. Both atmospheric and immersion conditions were evaluated by electrochemical tests in 0.1M NaCl solution together with salt spray test according to STN EN ISO 9227 standard. The obtained results confirmed significant improvement of corrosion resistance reached by the PEO sealing in aggressive environments compared to the pure PEO coating on AZ31 surface. Hence, such a duplex coating is a very perspective alternative for magnesium alloy applications in severe conditions or for temporary protection of magnesium products coated by the PEO during marine transport.

Pure DLC, Si-DLC, and Si-N-DLC films deposited from C2H2, C2H2 : TMS and C2H2 : TMS : N2 mixtures were used to study the effects of the elemental contents (silicon, silicon-nitrogen) on deposition and corrosion resistance properties. The films were prepared on Si (100) wafers using the plasma-based ion implantation (PBII) technique. The film structure was analyzed using Raman spectroscopy. The composition at the top surface of the films was measured using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The hardness and elastic modulus of the films were measured using a nanoindentation hardness tester. The corrosion performance of the films was conducted using potentiodynamic polarization experiments in an aqueous 0.05 M NaCl solution. The results indicate that the hardness and corrosion resistance of the Si-DLC film increase as the silicon content increases. This is due to the increase of the sp3 cluster. The corrosion resistance of a pure DLC film increases when silicon and silicon-nitrogen are doped into the film. Si-DLC films with a silicon content of 40 at.% had a corrosion potential value of 0.61 V, while a Si-N-DLC film with a silicon and nitrogen content of 19.3 at.% and 1 at.% shows a corrosion potential value of 0.85 V, which is a considerable improvement in the corrosion resistance property.

AZ31B magnesium alloy were irradiated by a high current pulsed electron beam (HCPEB) device with pulse times 10, 15 and 20 respectively. The morphology of the surface and cross-section of modified layer were investigated by optical microscope. The corrosion resistance of modified layer were tested by EG&G M273 potentiostat in 5% NaCl solution. Wear resistance were tested by HRS-2 high speed reciprocation frictional testing machines. The results indicated that magnesium alloy surface hardness obviously enhances, the wear volume reduces 7%, the corrosion resistance also improves obviously after electron beam processing.
