Fluoride conversion films were synthesized on cast magnesium alloy AZ31 by immersion in hydrofluoric acid for different days to improve the corrosion resistance of Mg alloys as degradable implant material. The effects of the films on the corrosion behavior of the mg substrates were investigated by immersion tests. The results showed the fluoride conversion film was affected by the distribution of the chemical component of cast AZ31 alloy and the film on the second phases has more pores and micro-crack, but the bottoms of the pores were also covered by the conversion film and the substrate was not exposed through the pores. The fluoride conversion coatings significantly improved the corrosion resistance of cast AZ31 alloy. The film on the second phase with more pores is the first to dissolve. The most improved corrosion protection was achieved by 15 days treatment with the thickest film in terms of hydrogen evolution rate and damage morphology.

Particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN) was investigated in magnesium alloy AZ31 to study the effect of the evolution of second-phases during extrusion and other metal forming processes. Compression tests were carried out on samples taken from coarse-grained as-cast magnesium alloy billets containing a lamellar Mg17All2 eutectic phase and (Al, Mn) particles. These revealed that particle-stimulated DRX nucleation (PSN) was taking place during hot deformation and that this is facilitated by the fragmentation of the Mg17All2. When Mg17All2 dissolves into the matrix at about 350°C, the (Al, Mn) particles remain effective in producing PSN at temperatures up to at least 400°C. This suggests that alloy design leading to a suitable distribution of second-phase particles can improve the properties and formability of wrought magnesium alloys.

The possibility that various silane treatments may enhance the corrosion resistance of a magnesium alloy AZ31 with silane-modified acrylate interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) coating has been investigated. Potentiodynamic electrochemical tests and neutral salt spray test were applied to evaluate the corrosion performance of the alloy. The results show that silane film improves corrosion resistance of the AZ31 alloy with and without IPN coating. The silane-modified IPN coatings improved more than 4 orders of magnitude of the corrosion resistance of the substrate.
